eBay's been getting raped recently.

Uninformed buyers trusting eBay to sort out their stupid decisions. Loads on new accounts selling BFL pre-orders with zero evidence of owning one. I saw one bitcointalk user querying about buying an Avalon he found on there. The same auction had been listed on three separate occasions, by three different listers. I saved his ass of $20k, and pointed out he should have done some research politely. An hour later he was in this thread asking dumb questions prepared to invest blindly. I asked him what gives, has he learnt nothing, he should read up, and he started trash talking me.

I'm sure the credit card company will honer their obligations.  Where it will get interesting is what Paypal will do when they receive the chargeback order. Paypal will be liable. Who will they then go after for the money? KNC will have already spent it on supplies.

If that is not a worry, where it will get really interesting as a buyer, is when the chargeback cut-off date gets close to the shipping date.  What if KNC slips on your shipping date (you did get a shipping date right?). You will have to cancel or take the risk.  Think of the dilemma that will be.

And what happens if 100's of orders are cancelled at the same time?  Insolvency

When a thread is gone like this, should we call it "butterfly effect"?

P.s.
Battletoads game anyone?

Guys, could you please explain to me, why they put video of Mars which they do not want to sell for the moment. And do not put any video of products which they want to sell??? And simultaneously they start to collect money for these other products? I do not see any logic behind this.

Logic comes from the fact two days ago you didn't want mars, so there's no need to manufacture it beyond a prototype as it can only hash for bitcoin and has a limited lifecycle. They ditched it on your demands.

Now they have, you want it?!

Well. That's me done.......... Good luck to anyone who orders with these guys. 

Taking orders before the open day, with just a lame youtube vid showing a box lol. C'mon guys, really??

No direct credit card payments??. Zero buyer protection.

I was trying to give these guys the benefit of the doubt but they have blown it for me. It seems to me they are looking for investors rather than customers. You take all the risk, they reap the rewards. Sounds fair doesn't it?

BTW I'll be willing to build you all an Asic if you pay me all the money upfront and wait a few months, with no guarantee you'll ever get the Asic or your money back. I'm sure I can find partners to help me as I have zero experience. PM me if you're interested  Tongue

Buyer protection waa waaa its called paypal fucking idiots which lets you pay with your credit card

Go back a few posts and read what I did earlier. Barclaycard said they cover beyond Paypal's buyer protection regardless of Paypal.

Call your card co.

Protection in the US depending on card is 60-90days you also have up to one year but it gets complicated.

What does the community think?  After BFL's fiasco, I'm rightly hesitant to believe any ASIC company will have product until it actually delivers something.  Is KNCMiner sounding like they can legitimately deliver?
