Hi Everyone,

There was a bug in the code that updated the new pricing, so it was much lower then it should have been. Its been adjusted now. Obviously those that got in orders in, will get the pricing when they bought. As it says in monopoly, bank error in your favor Smiley

Lucky those who bought with cheaper prices...  Roll Eyes

GAW people...

It would very interesting if you publish in OP, official website or wherever, the price cut and the credit policy.

Some people are getting confused because there were only 1 post in the middle of 50 pages informing this.

Regards...  Wink

PS.: ... waiting for more hosted miners with the new price...  Grin

Whats going on with the War Machine? I bought week three and paid $6800, its now $5999? I still haven't received a product but I have purchased it, and the price dropped by $900?

All prices were cut and they're going to credit everyone.
Read some posts before.

Thanks for that. It's sometimes hard to sift through so many posts, but I did find it. I wish they'd update the page 1 on top everytime they posted updates.

You're right, there's no "clear statement" regarding the credit.
But it's official:

Hello Everyone!

Our pre-orders were better then expected! As a result, we were able to double most of our purchases. What does this mean? A lower price to you!

And this time............ before you actually buy Smiley

Naturally, all existing orders will be credited the difference. When you email support for the credit (as I know you all will Smiley) Please please be patience. We will have a huge spike in tickets because of this change. I promise you, everyone will get the adjusted price. Thanks!

You know, from a business perspective GAW should give all the preorders hashing power commensurate to the difference in the price instead of doing refunds. Seems like that would be a lot easier on everyone.

I agree, it would be easier for everybody which is why I'm glad Zeus chose to go that route instead of changing the $$$ for EVERY order.

Slightly off-topic but when I asked Zeus about hosting they said they would send the miner to GAW for hosting. I guess Zeushosting is Gawhosting.

but why are the prices dropping so much before they even ship??


They got a better deal than expected...so they are giving you back the difference.

This was stated in a previous post, not in super great detail, but enough to know it will cost you less money for the same product.

How is it possible to lower prices to pre-order?. I've lost 70 USD and I still have nothing. Until you pass the expected date of delivery, should be no price cut.

Furthermore, paypal is important, because in Spain, they charge € 42 for a transfer in dollars

Don't you guys get it yet... don't get a pre-order because the prices are going to drop as proven with this. They'll probably drop more. Smart money is wait for "in-stock" and "hosted" to come together then jump on it.

So if I already pre-ordered a week ago a War Machine for Week 3, are you saying I will get another War Machine for free?  If so then how do I claim that?

Hi GAW Miner CEO, I was just wondering what your plans are on addressing and implementing a fix for the downtime a lot of people using your hosted service seem to be expressing dissatisfaction for.

Since I don't have the service personally I can only go by what other posters have been commenting on and it sounds like this is a frequent and ongoing issue.

One of the main draws for me in considering purchasing a few war machines was your company hosting them.

I think it would work to your advantage to work out a business plan to where you can guarantee a certain percentage in up time like a typically hosting facility would. This is in regard to your infrastructure of course. For instance having a secondary ISP is something that would be in your control. Whatever system you have in place as the "middle man" between us and remotely control our miners would be in your control. Aside from the actual miners themselves there is a lot you do have control over in regards to the service you are providing.

Thanks for listening.

Edit: Of course this may be a mute point as I don't see any miners under your scrypt hosting section any more for order :/

I cleared the matter up with my bank but suffice to say its a major Australian bank so chances are this will happen to more buyers. Looks like GAW has been black listed by some banks as I've purchased items of greater amounts from overseas recently and I haven't received a phone call.

Doubt that.  Banks seem to have no rhyme or reason.  You could make several $1000+ purchases, and your bank stops a $50 payment because it's "suspicious" to their algorithm.

"Black listed"?  What are you trying to spread?  Where's your proof?

I'm not trying to spread anything, just letting GAW know my payment was considered suspicious so others might run into the same problems.

GAW MINERS 
PAYPAL ACCEPTANCE
Date: May 13th, 2014

We regretfully inform all GAW Miners customers that we are no longer accepting payments through PayPal effective immediately. 

As you may be aware, our astounding growth over the last few months has lead to an explosive growth in the number and variety of customer PayPal transactions.  These payment, pre-order, which range in size from a few to hundreds of thousands of dollars, and originating from over 100 countries has created certain issues with PayPal regarding customer identity, fraud and regulatory authority compliance.  We are actively engaged with PayPal to expeditiously resolve these matters.  Please bear with us while we work towards an early restoration of PayPal facilities to our customers.

In the interim, we are pleased to accept credit cards, wire transfers and Bitcoin payments.
 

I love how PayPal gets upset when people are earning too much money. It sucks that you got caught up in this. There was a non-profit game that took donations in return for their game (instead of SELLING it) and got shut down by PayPal and had hundreds of thousands of dollars stolen by them because PayPal claimed there were too many transactions coming in and it was "high risk." Imagine if MasterCard banned Wal-Mart because of "too many transactions." Ridiculous.

Ha!  That is why Paypal will died eventually and Bitcoin will rule.
