The status of mine has been "BTC address needed" for over a week...

Hoping this dip helps them move things along.

Coins dropped to https://www.coinbase.com/dashboard


$3,584.90


I guess I will be getting a btc bill on my single avalon 741 order  made on the 31st of august.


Maybe they did us a favor with this buy.

here is my single order

Phil  as of now group buy is frozen correct?

I would lock thread  until Steven Mosher gets back to us.

I would offer to buy some of sidehack's kits since he ordered parts.


Yeah you are right no sense leaving a frozen group buy open.

@ sidehack pm me  I will take some kits off your hands.

Thread is locked until  steve allows  2 or 3    smaller    btc based group buys.

I know you are annoyed but look at this from my viewpoint  12 hours labor so far  most likley all for naught.

I am disappointed, but not annoyed and I fully recognize and appreciate the (potentially wasted) time you put into this.

I was referring mainly to this: http://imgur.com/a/e7F01

I was not aware that this started as a sub-60 unit order.  

In any case, the two order solution sounds like it should work for both parties.  We'll see.


Thanks again!

Hi there,
So just checking at the moment is this still dead in the water waiting for a fix? If we do get this moving again can someone pm me, as I don't want to miss this or hold things up in any way. Thanks again.

here are quotes they are to show that btc was the medium to pay


Okay still very tentative.

talking with sidehack as drop off warehouse location as he is in Missouri and has central location

talking with steve of canaan.io  on price  and details.

I will  be posting a btc address  right here


BTC address to be posted

only pay to it and no other address

place names on list

1) philipma1957 =  2 units 0 rasp pi

2) sidehack       =  1 unit  0 rasp pi

3)

4)

5)

6)

7)

8 )

9)

10)


OK,  lets do this.

1.   It would be great if all the buyers  would email me with a subject line   GROUP BUY PHILIPMA.
      why?  god forbid any of you  should have an RMA.  But if you do I,  then I will need a purchase
      date and this is one way I can sort out customers who buy in the group buy, otherwise  you
      are not in our system.
2.   Once The numbers of buyers and controllers is settled,  I will make an invoice for the buy.
      

3.   The organizer will get 2 free machines. i understand philipma did this before and got no love.
      i want to remedy this.
      
 

later  I'm just going to make a regular  product  for group buys  something like  60 Machines  and 30 controllers.
after I look at the numbers. Its also an easy way to be an insta-reseller



steve has a lot of info coming at him

Thats awesome! Hopefully steven get back soon...
Can I pick them up in Missouri? no need to reship to GA Wink
and its not too far from me...

Sorry Im running ragged.

Some clown  tried to attack our site  by uploading 1000s of chinese documents  making it
impossible to answer tickets.  Cleaned up,  what a moshpit!

I'm running through mails now  trying to solve some overdue problems  and overlooked tickets.




we started discussion with 30 units>>>> this would mean  btc only

and the buy grew to 100>>>> this would mean bank transfer accepted I can find no btc

maybe when all is said and done shrinking to smaller buys and allowing btc fixes this.










Note I deleted post below as

Thanks Phillip and Sidehack.

Hopefully they figure it out, but pretty crappy to change the rules like that after organizing everything.


For what it's worth, this rule has been stated pretty clearly on their site for at least a few weeks.  The rule was not changed.  Canaan is piss poor at communication, but they communicated this one bit of information pretty well.




I was clear enough on thread  that is was always btc.

and steve posted on thread.

plus we had pm talks.

I know you are annoyed but look at this from my viewpoint  12 hours labor so far  most likley all for naught.

and from sidehacks view point he placed a large order for psu's.

and 59 units no bank order

 60 units bank order


first pm's  were as low as 30 cards

plus screen shots just taken  do not say bank order only

Splitting the group buy into smaller orders is a great idea, and I'm for it. Hopefully Canaan can work something out since they have quite a bit of demand from the community.

I think that this would help Canaan a lot as well, so I'm hopeful that they do everything to make this go through ok.

I would like to thank you Philip and sidehack for all the effort so far for this group buy.
You definitely earn your 1 unit per guy.

It is hard  to do this.

My restriction  is I have to use btc to send to them.

They may have a btc cap  of some kind

thus the under 60 no bank transfer

over 60  must be a bank transfer.

We have 1 buyer that may get shut out get get btc wants to pay in bank transfer

23 buyers and
8 countries  are involved:

China
USA
Canada
Russia
Finland
Malaysia
Germany
Austria

oh a dozen on a wait list

I

I'm all for breaking it up into 2 orders if we have to. or if we have to do a wire transfer ourselves (I doubt it gets to that) I work at a bank in Oklahoma and am willing to wire transfer my part.

we all can pay directly to canaan via bank transfer. & all ok. just write in notes group buy ask Steve please
I think people with small (1,2,3) orders need to cooperate for 1 payment



no the paperwork involved kills the deal for them.



from Lily Han of canaan




Dear Philip

Many thanks for your movement, the gourp buy helped us a lot, we really don't have time to handle all the customers.

I need the following information to make the PROFORMA INVOICE, they are also necessary for shipping.

1. Your exact shipping address.
2. Contact person and contact number for receiving goods.

I have some information need to know, this information will be related
to import customs clearance.

3. Do you have a company located in the U.S?
4. Do you or your company have the import license or import BOUND?

If you don't have a company, import license or import BOUND, that's ok, we can let or broker to help you deal with this.

Kind regards
Lily

That could work.

If it works well enough, we could keep rotating buys like that as a regular thing for a while. Certainly seems to be demand.

I will email if we can do this.



I sent a reply to their emails  asking if we can do 50 then 50 with a 10 day gap in-between .

Maybe they can do this.

If not this is over with.

Well, balls.

Guess I'm bringing in a hundred PSUs for nothing, unless the BTC issue gets resolved. Still hoping for that, because this was gonna be a pretty cool thing to get done.

Hopefully they'll be able to work it out. I mean it's an $80k sale just sitting in their laps with exactly one not unreasonable condition.

yeah  but they could be in the same spot I would be in  which means  neither one of us can bend due to government rules.



Maybe  we do 2 orders of 50  a week to 10 days  apart.  I will float this by them.
