It's not a matter of If they will deliver, but when can they deliver. And that depends on when they have placed their chip order and quantity. And the only conclusion I can draw, from the lack of proof, is they have placed the order very late and know they will not be able to deliver on the promised date, and given the price they are charging now. I doubt there is will be much of an ROI when it finally gets shipped.

I just called them and told them they should post their chip order number on the forum to help appease people's concerns. His response was, "I haven't looked at the forum. I'll look into it."   So lets hope for a chip order number here. They were getting slammed with phone calls and visitors yesterday when I visited. I can only imagine the volume of calls/emails/PM's he's getting. They only had two people in the office yesterday. They aren't setup to stay on top of a thread as active as this one.

The chip order PROOF was requested serveral days ago when they were active on the forum...

Its not like yesterday and today were the first time we've asked for chip order confirmation. The request has simply been ignored.

Here are Steamboats CONFIRMED chip orders...  Terrahash Pre-Order buyers, tell me how you have not been CORNHOLED.

Batch 1: Order #10177, Purchase date May 1,2013. Expected delivery date early July
Batch 2: Order #10265, Purchase date May 11,2013. Expected delivery date mid July
Batch 3: Order #10325, Purchase date May 22,2013. Expected delivery date mid/late July.
Batch 4: Order #10425, Purchase date May 28,2013. Expected delivery date late July, early Aug.
Batch 5: Order #10553, Purchase date June 5. Expected delivery date early/mid Aug.

Please tell me how the purchasers of those Avalon chips plan to convert them to a working miner? It certainly won't happen as soon as they receive the chips, so you can add at least a couple of weeks onto the dates listed above. I suspect a lot of folks will be sitting on Avalon chips desperately searching for someone to assemble them into a working miner, which will take time.


You obviously haven't followed steamboat..

I'm more worried about not being in their first batch of shipments. It's unclear how many orders they can cover today with their existing chip order, and it's also unclear if they ordered 10k or 20k chips, but there is no way they can even come close to covering all the orders that were already placed today with their existing chip orders.

That pushes a lot of today's pre-orders back 9-10 weeks for the next batch of Avalon chips to be delivered, and another 1-2 weeks for assembly.

I doubt they have enough Avalon chips ordered to cover all the orders in the 400s, but I hope they prove me wrong!

What existing chip order?

Some of you are forgetting to consider the price of BTC this morning with the flash buy.   With 5% btc discount and the 8-9% increase in BTC price this morning, I'm considering the purchase almost a free one. I'm risking the profits from today alone. I had accepted that I only had X money yesterday when I went to bed. Today I have X money and some new asic hardware that may or may not deliver on time.  I'll buy back in when we dip back to  101.
It doesn't matter where you got your money to spend...  the risk is still the same.

I got the feeling that folks from the early chip batch orders will be mining before TH can get the first unit out the door.

To put things in perspective, a guy posted in this thread that he had a 43x order for 2 DX larges. That single order would use up 64 chips per K64 * 10 K64s * 2 DX larges = 1280 Avalon chips!

I think they started order # at 400, I ordered first few minuts and got 500's. Unless someone can prove otherwise, I think they can get up to order #600 or so.
