Topic: I'm starting to get fucking pissed (BFL) - page 5. (Read 13704 times)

I'll choose to believe this as fact, regardless of BFL's actions.

lol, no doubt.  TL;DR FUD with a flawed initial premise.

BFL has made so much money on early pre-preorders that the btc value has increased so much they could afford to refund everyone, and mine themselves and not deal with the hassle.  By how they treat their disgruntled customers and poor communication and lack of a set roadmap that they stick by this company is doomed for failure.  When they do ship it will be too late, the stain that they put on the community will be seen forever, them firing their own customers will be learned from and people will not make the same mistake again.  In the next 2-3 months before BFL actually ships maybe 30% of their orders which even then is wishful thinking, there will be many many more companies already shipping workable products, gen2 asics, asicminer shipping better, faster products, avalon shipping better, faster products.  By the time the most recent orders from BFL ship, BFL will be just a bad memory and a mistake nobody will repeat again.  BFL is digging their own grave, soon it will be the end of them, I think we have all seen companies like this in the past, they just dont last.  We can forget about ROI, maybe we'll make a few bucks to buy better cheaper products by better cheaper companies than BFL. 


If I was BFL right now and a bad lazy person, I'd want as many people to cancel as possible, they already made money with the extra BTC, and they wont have to worry about paying extra people to ship the devices or working a little bit harder.  With all the BTC and funds at their disposal, they could in theory have multiple manufacturers process these orders and get these all shipped in maybe a month or two and still have a little money left over for future endeavors.  But the thing is guys, its not about making you, the customer happy, its about them filling their pockets, planning newer products with your funds in limbo and maybe next time to it right.  But unfortunately for them, their reputation is ruined and even if they do it right, people wont trust them with their btc.

Forget about what you ordered, it doesnt matter to them, invest the little you have now in something else, forget about them for a while, and one day be a little less than surprised that your BFL order is finally at your doorstep after it doesnt matter anymore.

 

That sounds about right. 500GH/s at 3000W, which is pretty similar to the 5GH/s at 30-35W for the Jalapenos that shipped and would correspond to 300W for a 50GH/s Single.

I wouldn't be too sure. The last point of data from BFL indicated the former minirig aka now "the minirig triplet" is currently at 3 x 3000 Watt.

I think you are smarter than that, and know that the BFL Single doesn't consume 1.5 KW .
It'll be closer to 300W, still wonder what power brick can pull 300W tho.

Wait, I lied. It's 359,72 €

If you look in the photo above, the thing takes a 1500 Watt PSU. The cheapest price for the one pictured above is 360 Euro...

Erm...I think he mean's in electricity!?

I'm pretty sure they supply a power brick, but either way buying a sufficient PSU would set me back 40$, not 400$...

Have you already set aside the 400$ you'll need for the PSU to power that thing?

i think mrb did exactly this as I was one of the people that bought some of his old equipment ....hmmm

I can't imagine how choked I'd be if I was one of the few that sold off their GPU farm last summer to fund BFL ASIC purchases...  Ouch.

Before August 2014 or 2015?

The indicators are "U WILL GET NOTHING"

Its been suck a long drawn out gamble that really its so bad that its entered NIGIARAN 419 scam terrortory that as the scammee u feel that if hold on for some time more or send more money it must then pay out ...its just got too !!!

So good luck with that...

P.S I got out in January..thank u jesus ..I have moved on and used my funds to mine about the same amount in coin in that time 5 times over with GPU's and LTC\BTC combinations 

Wow, There is so much crying going on in these forums, I'm starting to wonder if it's a physical impossibility to run out of tears.

I Pre-Ordered a 60 GH/S Single in September 2012, and I'm not expecting delivery before august.

If you really can't wait anymore, just get a fucking refund... Yes they held your money for a long time for free if you ask for a refund, but just be smarter then next time. The indicators that they would not deliver on time have always been there...

Idk what to do at this point. No customer should have to go through what we're going through.

No no that's not quite right. Have a look at this beautyful abomination



Loving that 1500 watt power supply. Efficiency.

"NOT some get rich quick snake oil SCAM"

i loled and i loled ...

Also the "Something i am intrested in" ....i.e dont be alarmed that it looks like a scam it is really something very wholesome and good...even though it looks like scam ..but its not because i am intrested in it so it must not be a scam....serial & for reals ..wait....wait for it .....TRUST ME !
