Oh boy, and to think I just won the Nigerian lottery today! Now I know what to spend the money on. I'll ask my banker connection there to wire you the money and buy one of your miners. Please give me all your bank account information, date of birth, drivers license number, passport number, eye color, blood type, marital status, and mothers maiden name and he will send you the money right away!

Look at the component diagrams that are printed on the PCB - very closely
The 'rectangles' that would mark placement of a component DO NOT match up with the dimensions or placement of these "ASICs."
You will also observe that the OP conveniently placed his cell phone over that specific area of the PCB where the "ASICs" are supposed to be placed.
This picture was a supposed attempt to establish some legitimacy, but further concealed the truth about what type of chips truly are at that specific area of the PCB.
Photoshop.....scam.
Indeed. Looking more closely at the pictures they definitely look faked. The lack of responses also indicate to me they are not interested in proving their authenticity.The 'rectangles' that would mark placement of a component DO NOT match up with the dimensions or placement of these "ASICs."

I think the only way to conclusively prove this real is if they have a trusted forum member come to them to check out their units. Which I'm pretty sure is not going to happen. They are likely interested in getting the low-hanging fruit to scam.

You can bet that this is a scam? I play whatever ...
Scammers are getting pros.
Hahaha total scam. I like how the phone covers where the chips would be .... Save some ps time. Lol
You can actually see that the rightmost IC isn't in the pic with the camera.

I felt the chips on the second pic don't look very natural.
Yeah, they look like they're just sitting on top of the board, not actually mounted to it. Fake.
Given how your photos show you have packaged chips, you can demo your prototype to eliminate most of the concerns people have. I am curious how you are mounting your heatsink to the chips shown given the lack of convenient holes through the PCBs around your chips.

I have look 20 times the pictures and my conclusion are:
1) third fan connector is missing!
2) I don't see the reset connector (front)
3) I don't the usb (front)
4) I don't se the power connector (front)
So even if you promise that you will post some pictures I will still don't buy your product.

Dear Sirs and Madams,
our name is CedarTec and we are a young company that was founded 2010 in lebanon.
Since 2011 we started to construct a new asic generation, our first product
is called CT-80 and is equiped with the highest standards.
Now it is nearly the end of the production line, so we opened the pre-order
and the CT-80 will be shipped at the 14th May 2013.
The CT-80 is limited to 1000 units and every customer is allowed
to buy 3 devices.
No one began development of ASICs in 2011. It wasn't even on the radar. Why did your new company that no one heard of before now start ASIC development in 2011? Why didn't you start with FPGAs? At least BFL did that.our name is CedarTec and we are a young company that was founded 2010 in lebanon.

A real company would not be afraid to put their information out there. You will need to provide us with substantial proof: real contact information, business registration, etc. We would also like to see video of units (plural) hashing and a link to to the pool with their public stats (not one as many people have Avalon ASICs). Even better would be inviting a trusted forum member (hero member, moderator, etc) to come out to your location to check the units out himself. This would definitively prove it is not a scam. There would be plenty of people that would fly out to Lebanon on a whim to see a $999 80GH/s ASIC.
If you can satisfactorily prove that you are not a scam, I can assure you that you will have no problem selling every single one of your devices. But until that time people should assume that this is a scam.
Red flags about this one:
* No contact information besides web form.
* No phone numbers
* No address or any other information about the company.
* Anonymously registered domain.
* Claims to be from Lebanon while hosting company is from Iceland.

I felt the chips on the second pic don't look very natural.
Send a mod one unit for evaluation..... A trustworthy one like....
Or find some other proof of work. Simply pictures won't work
Suspicion raised for SCAM if not proven ...

After the many scams here the first thing that almost everyone will ask is "What evidence do we have that your product is real?"
