some people just shouldnt be allowed to buy mining equipment... if you dont understand how it works... keep sitting on the sidelines please...   ASICMINER  delivers in a timely manner,  and the products do what they say they will do....   dont get mad because you think you overpaid for something.... you had the option of not buying it.... no one held a gun to you and made you purchase did they?
You clearly STILL can't read. Its nothing to do with the prices, its the upgrades which were sold as part of the original sales, have NOT been delivered.

All ASICMiner Erupter Blades sold in batches [B1, B2, B3, B3+] were promised free upgrades. B2-B3+ were promised new power modules and ethernet controllers. B1 more importantly were promised free upgrades of the entire blades. These new blades were meant to arrive pretty sharpish, although in a later PM friedcat then delayed that to 1-3 months from the start of June [Ie July to end of August].

Well the new blade design is released. The new blade doesnt have a seperate power and ethernet controller. I guess that means that b2 and b3 buysers wont receive new power and ethernet controllers. (because they havent been upgraded and do no longer exist)

I am aware of that, hence I proposed an alternative.

I anticipate something like 0.4 BTC coupon and a free usbminer (since he said it was going to be a free upgrade.) it would follow the trend.

Bump for new blades being announced. Rack of 10 seems fair for b1 Wink Not sure what to do for B2+ seeing as there are no new component boards. Free blade for those as well?

I like freebies. b2+ gets 1 and you get 10, can't we make it an even 5-5 Tongue I sold my asicminer shares at 1.1 to buy in b2 only for it to kill me in the end. :/
B1 had the promise of replacement blades - when they were worth something. B2+ had replacement power delivery and ethernet cards, but obviously those don't exist any more. I've got 1*B1, 2*B2s and 2*B3+s.

First, sorry for the delay of delivery. Our design decision changed a lot during the last few months, resulting a unified new blade design which had also gone into many iterations.

The purchasers will all be fulfilled with new blades. And furthermore it won't be merely upgrades. They are extra.

Do I understand correctly that purchasers of B1-B3 will be given extra unit?
Yes, we get the free USB stick by X-mas.

No, thats just a lie
It's not a lie. It's an expectation.

Nothing confirmed until its actually announced, but no.

+1 to dogie.
This is a sad day for the people who supported ASICMINER initially. I was part of the B3 auction who paid 50BTC / blade.
They never ROI'ed.

Even with the new price of 3.5Btc per blade for returning customers, these blades don't seem to ROI.
http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/a/d0775c4b7b

@Friedcat : When you replied to my PM earlier this week, i was expecting something better. You have let us down this time.
So much for taking our chances and vetting on ASICMINER


noone promised ROI within 3 months. that's just your personal assumption. in fact with so many participants how can anyone GUARANTEE roi without opening themselves up to horrible ramifications? you got what you ordered, on time. and you are complaining why? compared to other ASIC purchasers you should be grateful.  what AM has to do is deliver when promised what they promise and that's what they did

Yes. Am not complaining. Am quoting the fact. As you said, we received what we were promised. But so did others who brought USB's at 2.00 BTC and 1 BTC. Then why offer them coupons and not compensate us (blade buyers) who invested many times more than them.

I agree with you and i have been a strong supporter of friedcat all through. Am a shareholder as well and continue to invest in ASICMINER.
But i just wanted to point out the flaw in the pricing strategy being employed offlate.

The debate isn't about ROI, its that as part of the sales package we were promised upgrades which as of yet have yet to appear.

I'm assuming by this you mean its not a trade in - it never was. The problem with just getting new blades now is they're worth (to us, and costs you) almost nothing. The promise assumed they would be worth 15-25 on delivery, NOT 2-4btc. That's 11-23 difference, small money for you, big money for us.
Of course we will bear the deprecation based on hashrate increase caused by our delay in mind. The later it is, the more hashrate it will be.

Then we kindly await future updates. As in the OP, this thread is more about a reminder with the community as witnesses than pitchforks and flaming torches.
