I'm starting to question whether Isawhim would care if he got his miner, but everyone else that pre-ordered got screwed. I don't know why him or any of these others would come to defend AMT so strongly based simply on a lackluster website with misinformation, unprofessional posts on this thread, and a general lack of updates and clear information for their investors. I just don't get it.
AMT_MINERS: It's Saturday Feb 08 2014. You said that miners would be built by now and start shipping yesterday. Has that changed? If so, please let us know. If not - please post some pictures or give us some updates as to what orders have been built/shipped.
No-one got screwed.
There is no misinformation, other than the crap spewing from trolling post using the poorest detective work.
There has been plenty of updates between the troll-posts, and news pages. (Including the "pictures" and "updates to shipping and building".)
Yes, I would care if I NEVER got my miner. But I am getting it, and getting it before all those who patiently waited before attempting to make a purchase. (And before most other THs miners from any other place, I might add too.) Could have had more, if anyone took me up on my offers for a refund. (So it seems a majority, like myself, obviously have the same confidence about delivery and production.)
There is always BFL to buy from, or KNC... Oh wait.. KNC still does not have open-orders, and BFL, you will be lucky if you get the miner within a year from purchase. Go buy some ants , blocks, or usb-miners if you think you will get something better there. Same wolf-cries all over, from idiots trying to curb sales.
Same thing happens every time.
What's next... Complaining because they didn't send you two, when you ordered one. No free water with every purchase, like BFL offered. No insta-ROI because of expected market fluctuation in price. No refund 30-days after getting it, after you mined your own coin-value into the ground, because you insta-cashed-out. (Also not a possibility, even though "consumer protections", states that it is. Again, one of those limitations of the law, for this instance. Nice thing called pro-rated returns, and custom contracted asset return limitations.)
Sorry, gotta go do something productive, so I can earn more, to buy more. I am still making hundreds a day with my old equipment, contributing to the falling prices of BTC, so I can buy it cheaper with cash. Ironic, isn't it. lol. Just like paying for a BTC miner with BTC. Or buying a printing-press with cash.
And in my own defense about my statement about consumer protections being for customers and for the business.. This is a direct quote from the FTC gov website...
The FTC puts out its mission by investigating issues raised by reports from consumers and businesses.
It is not ONLY for the consumer. Consumers attempt to unjustly demand things they are just not legally entitled to, like refunds and "free things", and "slander". Which is also protected under consumer protections acts. For the business. Including the fraud-laws, where consumers "claim" things that are just fraudulent. Thus, the reason why your CC's spend billions to protect the businesses and customers they serve, using your own money.
