Oh yeah, they seemingly haven't shipped any Jallys in one entire week?

And people discussing the need for a price cut on the BFL Monarch before it has even had a chance to ship out:

Some folks are bailing now that they have come to their senses:

The next crisis at BFL will be when companies like BitFury sell their miners at a cheaper price than BFL's Monarch...before it is even released in February.

You know it's coming....

It will be totally epic how they keep the lid on their forum at that time.

--People who paid "too much" will want more.

--People who "want out" by then won't be offered that opportunity.

Yes just let the victims be quiet and BFL can actually make more money!

Seems Josh has a lot of time as their COO to moderate posts on the forum, to argue in the Shoutbox who has shipped more devices, and to duel with people on this website.

What he should be focusing on is recapturing any sense of credibility his company may have but he ignores that task because it is outside of his realm of capabilities.

A new leaf can be turned over at any time. Then all you have to do is actually perform.

Moderating the forums also gives you the ability to delete posts/threads etc that may be "held against you" in the future.

Thats how I see it as well.

you joined this forum the 15th May, they were delaying since February If i recall, you should do some searching before investing, to be honest I do not give a shit about BFL delays anymore, this forum got spammed with these threads.

you wont achieve anything by posting such posts, the only thing that I've learned is that people are prepared to pay shit load of money  to get ASIC prototypes, no matter what troubles they face, and no matter how many delays they have to wait, just get over it.

-another things I want to mention, even if ASICMINER is shipping right now from stock, their devices are so over priced and will never ever make ROI(BTC prospective, because Price is based on BTC) , couple months ago the first batch of blades sold @ 75BTC  and the second batch almost 60BTC the next batch was price fixed at 49.99BTC , these people will never see ROI, and not even to mention the USB blocks....

-for AVALON, only the first batch owners got the best investment, they made ROI and surpass it, then they shitted all over it with B2,B3 and not to mention the chips tragedy.

- I hate to say that, but BFL seemed to have solid offers at the time (looking from the FIAT prospective), and keep in mind that no matter how many delays BFL made, there is always a small chance to make a ROI for people who paid with paypal or wire transfer ( speculating that BTC price will go up)


the only company that honored their schedule and their specifications till now is Bitfury, but sadly I was afraid to invest my BTC and they didn't have the SEPA payment option for their august delivery.



        

It's all about managing your customers investors victims.

If the people that they've ripped off would just stop trying to vocalize about it...

New facts just coming into our news desk:

Their brand of censorship is now official.

If you have ever wondered why there aren't as many irate and angry customers on BFL forums, it is probably not for a lack of them trying.

I don't dissect everything that comes from BFL, what you are reading is MY discussion with BFL.

My reward, as an investor in BFL is that folks know additional facts about the company I have so foolishly invested in.

Caveat Emptor.

Correct. Worse, Josh will then point to a hope + dream phrase built into his statement that renders said statement absolutely irrelevant. Every statement the man releases is peppered with weasel clauses that can later be pointed to as rendering the balance of his words meaningless.

BFL: We've scheduled shipments for October! HONEST. ABE!

Yes, but were any products actually fit into that schedule? Uh no...not so much. However you absolutely cannot prove that they DID NOT schedule shipments.

Just like you have nothing better to do than to respond to BFL related posts within a very hostile environment. You've gone out of your way just to do that.

Your reward for wasting time is?

Nothing will happen except another date will be given. It's not like we will be all shocked that they yet miss another deadline.

So what happens if BFL misses their own end-of-September backlog clearing date?  Nothing.  It's all sound and fury signifying nothing.

The OP must really have nothing better to do with his time seeing as he has to disect everything that comes out of BFL down to the point all you have is utter nonsense.  Obviously he is so wise he can infer things from minimal data.  I'd bet Charles Schwab would love to hire someone with his keen skills.

Some of the latest tripe from the BFL Shoutbox. (Sunday Night)


Seems BFL does not work weekends, but Just Saturdays and those numbers are rolled up into Monday Numbers.

"We make and ship stuff on Saturday but it all gets rolled into Mnday"  (sic)

So when Josh said we work weekends, he meant Saturdays. (off by 50% imagine that)

Also interesting to note that in sheer Pay dates shipped, lately Mondays numbers are equal in pay dates to any other day, there is not a doubling effect on Monday's stats due to some huge volume that went out Saturday.  (wonder why)


When asked whether she lacked parts or assemblers, she ignored the question.

When asked "Backlog cleared in 22 days??"

She replied "If we ship everything by the end of September, the backlog will be cleared. If we don't, I won't be."

I'd call that a "no', just my opinion however.

I'm actually not discriminating.  I did say that Mei might do it faster. :-)

You discriminate agaisnt yourself ..Your a selfist ??

You are racist!

Could be faster if someone named Mei was assembling it.  And no parts shortage too.

(Note: I am Chinese, so don't tell me I'm racist.)

No Jallys shipped today AKA as their cheapest, easiest to assemble product. You'd think they'd ship on weekends since they're so backlogged.

What is going on over there? Are they 3D printing the cases, line by line?
