Topic: [GROUP BUY WORLDWIDE]BTMine v1 Miner 200GH/s BTC 2.4 - page 57. (Read 97147 times)

Ok I had the wrong rate it is 0.073/kwh.  And it drops to 0.0573/kwh after 900 kwh/month.

If you think we have expensive electricity, try paying $1.5m for a 1,500sqft cottage by the freeway.

Holy cow I knew my 0.071/kwh was cheap but did not realize how cheap.

i did  .. but i think its because i got used with all my previous antminers i got - those were always in stock and shipped fast.

I dunno, I think a lot of this is caveat emptor - we all saw a few units go out very quickly, at reasonable prices, by a new, untried vendor.  I knew, at least, that there could be a hiccup if demand got to be more than they were prepared for and had a real product, but it looked like they were committed to delivery - so I took that risk.  Evidently, so did miaviator and dozens of others.

Yes, the vendor said "in stock" - did anyone really believe they were really already assy'd and ready-to-ship?  I figured they meant materials in hand and ready for finishing out the rest; they would have had a some starter stock and had the supplies for the rest - which is sounds like was exactly the case, save for some unforseen hiccups already mentioned.  I figured they overestimated their abiliity to ramp-up and deliver, probably due to a combination of overenthusiasm, inexperience, etc - again, sounds about right.

Nevertheless, I still decided on 6 Jan to try to get on the front-side of the bow-wave, and currently my unit is in DHL hands.  I expect it tomorrow-ish, which is about almost a week later than my own overly-optimistic hope but within the realm of the risk I was willing to take.  And while I knew they delivered the first few in literally days, I did not think they'd be able to keep that up - anyone who truly did think that was not being realistic, IMHO.

That said, I'm dubious about ordering more until I know that they've solved their hiccups and can indeed ship when promised.  I think they're committed to delivery.  I think they got in over their head.  What's next is up to them.

Look, let's be honest here, we all took a risk in good faith.  And the vendor has been delivering and providing refunds.  Things are actually working exactly as you might expect in this situation, without the need for invoking any criminal intent or malfeasance.

I get the "squeaky wheel" approach, but I think that it's an overescalation.  But then again, I don't have $20k up in the air right now.  I decided to ease into my risk for only one unit, and for me that was the smarter decision.

Ship a few initial batches to get the herd moving, then start delaying the rest bfl/avalon style.  Hook, line, sinker.

Classic and obvious. After going through all those sagas over the years people are still so gullible.

A little trolling ? You are making it into a full time job. Added to your sig now too. All because of a 7 day delay. Jesus dude talk about being butt hurt.

Not that it would make a bit of difference as you have already lost the plot but just so you know these posts make you look like a spoiled brat. Just sayin'

read that with Krusty's voice! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zfb1znHCHlM

Our base rate is 0.15/kwh I believe, but with all these miners, I'm pushed into tier 4, which is crazy expensive. Maybe I need to think about renting some data center space.

ouch 0.35/kwh, and I thought 0.2 was high

This miaviator asshole is really getting out of hand. Why don't you just give them your info so that they can refund you ? wait ? did you even order any ? I don't know why but I just have a gut feeling your on here just trolling. Any ways reported.

Maybe they hate you... or the seller got over his head by taking more orders then they could fulfill in a timely manner.
