I ordered and did NOT get email confirmation upon payment network confirmation as promised.

I didn't either for awhile, they may have to go through your order manually like they did mine

I ordered and paid 9 days ago and haven't received a confirmation yet. 5 days in I emailed to ask and they said they received payment and would send order confirmation in a "few" days.

There was a large backlog of confirmations for our manual orders, but all confirmations were supposed to be emailed out by last Friday. I'll ask sales to look into what happened with yours.

They will get back to you today.

Cheers,

That does not inspire confidence.

For a USD 5000+ order, I think it makes perfect sense NOT to completely automatically process it.
So, for me, that rather does inspire confidence.

The broken webshop on the first day of sales didn't, though Grin

Of course there are pre-orders as 50% of the population have below average intelligence.

What measure of intelligence are you using?

Any measure you choose. Re-read the statement and think about it ...

Price needs to be around 2800 bucks for this to be viable. I'm afraid HashFast is now HashSlow and over priced :-(

Yes you could be right. Wink

2800 per 1000gh/s would be pretty reasonable

no matter how many times you try to talk the price down or spam your no pre-order message, the fact remains that there are pre-orders going on.

you are looking at this completely wrong. these are money printing machines that you expect to put money in your pocket while also benefitting from a price rise from a fixed money supply.

show me one pc you've ever bought that returned anything of similar value back to you over time.

Um every GPU miner in 2011?

For what it is worth, the claims don't seem too hard to believe.

KnC is claiming they will be receiving their 28nm technology chips in September. Hashfast claims that they will be receiving theirs in October.
Bitifury has demonstrated 400GH @ << 400W. HashFast is claiming 400GH @350W +/- 20%.

The big change is HashFast is selling at $14/GH while everyone else is at ~$18

So far, the claims seem not too out of line with their peers (though Bitfury definitely has been knocking it out of the park with their delivery, communication and customer sat).

Where did you see Bitifury demonstration, that sounds very interesting.

So you are selling 550 units for 5K each. If not delivered by a certain date with conditions which are completely unpredictable you give four times more. So it costs less then 1K per unit to produce (550K total) or you honoring this promise means instant losses on the first batch. Everyone says the chips cost nothing to make it's the upfront R&D but you already stated that all that is done in this thread before. Companies making tiny % on exchanges are getting vc money but you can't find a few angel investors to get 550K together for a chip which produces 400Gh that is light years ahead of even the other crazy Gh per chip pre-orders of KNC and BitFury? What am I missing here? The only reason to take pre-orders is if you think what you get now is much more then what you can get later otherwise why do it at all?

HashFast loves you, you jaded ingrate. That's why HashFast allows you to profit at HashFast's expense.
It's called altruism.
It's called basic decency.
It's called sharing the bounty with fellow humans.
It's unalloyed economic compassion.
Is that so hard to believe?

Hating to break into the talk about how babies are made

...

Still - here is Miner Protection Program:

Along with everyone else, we too have been closely watching the growth of the network Hashrate.

It is of concern to all miners, particularly to those looking to pre-purchase equipment. The more time there is between purchase and delivery, the greater the risk that the Hashrate will climb to a point where the miner will never make their money back.

That is the reason behind our Miner Protection Program, and the guarantee we provide is:

If any of our pre-purchase customers has not achieved payback on their investment in HashFast equipment within 90 days* of taking delivery from us, we will support them by providing them with up to 4X the Hashing capacity they originally purchased, free of charge.

The details:

We will give you double the extra capacity you would have needed to break even (up to a maximum of 4x your original purchase). The extra capacity will be chips only, to be used with a HashFast or third party chassis.

*Assuming you have been running your mining rig 24/7, ROI calculated from the daily difficulty level, block arrival rate, and hash rate of equipment delivered.

Are they going to calculate ROI in BTC or USD? Because they are taking payments in BTC so if they are banking on the price of BTC going up to claim ROI in USD terms that is lame. There haven't been enough specifics to know what their thinking is on this. My Expectations is that ROI will be in BTC terms since I paid in BTC.

my basic understanding of this is that ~~everything will be calculated in BTC,~~ but yes, you'll have to get it straight from the company.

actually, i believe i remember Simon somewhere buried back in one of these threads said that only enough BTC will be returned to equal the original $5600. you'd better check on that.

I read through Simon's posts and could find no such thing. Just:

Orders are taken in BTC, in the unlikely event we get to refunds they will be given in BTC.

So I expect refunds to made in accordance to the Bitpay receipt of payment. In my case:

Of course, if HashFast just ships in time and as promised all this is moot.

What makes you different from them, broken promises, using customer miner for their own mining. Stay Away, Don't Buy Pre Order. Do they accept PP and credit cards?
