yesterday a company preordered a million USD worth of those mining cards. what i dont' get is wouldn't they order KNCminers instead

i dont get why they didnt buy some BTCs on low price

Well, KNC is still spitting out miners from their first batch, and is widely expected to meet their november deadlines for batch 2, right?

man that sucks, if you take in mind that 600 gh/s miners wont be so usable in 6 months

Yup, the funny is it is reasonable to expect Monarch delivery no sonner than in 6 months from now, yet there are people preordering it Huh

i cant belive that ppl are still ordering thoose miners, ROI will be few years. When they get their minners difficulty will be higher than anyone predicted

Meanwhile, someone just spent $1mil with BFL.

Sucker born every minute.

Unless they signed a GigaVPS style NDA to slip equipment out the back door. Seems more than one person was talking about this at Atlanta.

I just recently passed on buying one of these babies for 3,000. I can't trust their shipping dates.

i doubt ill be buying any more untill the dust settles, ie diff not rising so much and the companys lower the prices,
the way things are going right now, you wont get roi on anything unless you can get it in hand today Sad

only getting the hashbuster nano`s to have something to play with, they are awsome x)

BFL wont ever get anymore business from me. Paid 50 BTC for miners. Had they been delivered on time, would have made that back + small profit.
Now will be lucky to make 10BTC back.

i payed 139.8 btc for 60ghash back in october 2012. i doubt ill make that back Tongue

/kick myself in the nuts

I transferred my early June Jalapeno to Mining by the Ghash (Monarch) to be hosted by BFL for a year.

My choice was probably this:
A - A December delivered Jalapeno that might mine me 1 BTC over a year. And I would have to pay customs which would negate that 1 BTC.
B - Getting 40 Ghash or so in Feb I hope. That might get me 1 BTC over a year. No customs.

My debate came down to "Do I want the novelty of just having a Jalapeno years from now?" and I almost chose yes but the pain of paying tax on something when I could probably buy it on Ebay in December for 100 bucks and have my 40 Ghash is Feb won out...

And there is the great chance that BFL can't deliver on the Monarch and by some act of God I actually get a refund. Grin

It would be about the same as pre-ordering a donkey kick right in the balls a year from now.. maybe longer..

sometime in late 2014, early 2015.. you will hear the doorbell ring... open the front door.. see the back side of a donkey.. then BAM..

+1 gold lol

The Monarch is over priced in my opinion.

Monarch: 600 GH/s for $4680 delievered in Feb or later.
Jupiter: 550 GH/s for $4995 delivered in Nov.

The choice is clear. BFL is far too expensive and risky.

The Monarch is over priced in my opinion. We have cheaper dollar to hashrate ASIC devices out there that will most likely come out before BFL. I'm going to guesstimate by the time the Monarch is released.. the difficulty will be so high that ROI chances will be slim. Basically, the same scenario with the majority of BFL's 65nm ASIC devices. Sure, if you look at 600GH now for today's diff. it seems enticing... but you have to factor in the likely date when you'll receive it and the diff. for that time period. So in BFL's case.. it's anywhere from 2 weeks to 1 year (definitely the latter).

And to answer your initial question; NO.. I will never purchase anything from BFL again. NEVER.
