Maybe this will sound a bit naive, but would it be excessive to offer the V1.2 cards for cheaper, simply as a 'thank you' to everyone who bought an august starter kit and then had virtually no opportunities to add cards to it? (october preorders or a small pile of seemingly overpriced cards in november)

There are a lot of better options available, and to see these prices SUCKS Sad

Also seeing as the first buyers will probably lose 50% of the BTC they spent...

Dave, which generation of card ships immediately? You mentioned in your other thread that one type is delayed by a few days.

Didn't H-cards used to be priced at $500?

[WTB] BitFury H-Cards for V1.0 M-Board. Currently have a starter kit with 3 cards totaling 52 GH/s. But would like to add to it.
Not willing to buy at current Megabigpower.com rate of $500 for 25Gh/s. Way over priced.

Yeah... and then the price of bitcoin rose 700%.

So the price to get and manufacture hardware also rose dramatically? No.

This is called greed.

Anyone who wants to support it can buy price jacked hardware (I paid $50 for this last month and I'll happily pay $250 for it today again!), anyone who wants to pass can likely find similar elsewhere. And I can say flat-out that 25GH at that price is not worthwhile, run more than that and the daily earnings are a pittance.

Not saying that I love the new pricing either. But demand for ASICs skyrocketed along with the price of bitcoin, hence some manufacturers raised their prices. You would have done the same thing if you were Bitfury because it's what businesses do when their product is in great demand.
