damit only #4xx and #5xx orders ^^^rofl ^^ i ... was like 1-2 seconds after they opened ^^^
i think they started high. like in the 450's. any body know why?

Same reason that your bank doesn't start your checking account with check number 0001.  Makes people think you're established.

Still no chip order pic?



nope, no proof yet.

I did not feel comfortable ordering what I wanted to order, so I threw in a small order.  Order #46X which is so far the lowest order number I have seen so far.
Same story here.  ...particularly after seeing the shipping costs calculated.

That minimum shipping fee is a real bummer. At 2 BTC, the Klondike 16s seemed like a great deal. At 250 USD, still good. But at 300 USD including shipping, not so much...

Also, the fact that the cart allows me to order 2,000,000,000 boards with 16 chips each (I was playing around to see how much shipping fee would increase for big orders and got a little carried away) makes me feel a little uneasy...

Woah, yeah, it didn't take me two minutes to order and I am like 485.  Interesting. Did you buy their chips?

Think they started order numbers at 450 or 460

I hope you're right because I have a 47x order number and ordered right at noon EST.

$700 for standard shipping?  No thanks.

Mine was $50...where do you live?
Two states away.  Try to order a completed unit with multiple boards inside...  the ordering system charges per board.

Yeah, they are likely going by a screwed up equation which counts each board as a separate package instead of just prorating the current package.
