So, lets say I am a hard drive manufacturer with an 1000GB hard drive for $100, and a 2000GB hard drive for 200$

After you've already bought the first draft 2000GB non-watered-down premium version of the drive, you'd then demand I reduce my price for the 1000GB after I've figured I'd have some excess level of board and enclosure production?  Even if I just wanted to make available a 2 platter drive for the masses?   Wow...  Am I, the manufacturer, supposed to cave to some wave of DB protest? Only a scam would react to you in the way you want, ice chill.  I'm glad Josh / Inaba made things clear.  BTW, this isn't a Walmart return desk -  It's a pioneering place in the formation of the world's first established peer to peer cryptocurrency.

Manateeeeeeees
I'd hope rather than just randomly increasing the clock of the SC Single to appease us, they'll do thorough testing to determine the highest clock that's reliable (especially since there's a lifetime warranty).

Hi, this thread is created in response to the new LITTLE SC Single that is advertised as a 30Ghash unit....
No response I've seen to this post tops this:

"What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

I like you Unacceptable. (You make a lot of funny points) Just consider that you shouldn't become a fan of any one company. Less so, if you are thinking about joining in to the idea of no longer willing to glean an edge over everyone else receiving their orders.

Personally the bickering on Bitcointalk is pretty funny. I like it when you all argue but sometimes people don't argue over the rational points of interests.

Why hasn't there been any recent talk of one user trying to gain an edge over others? Where is the spirit of competition?

Is everyone happy receiving the same? Why not at least question the status quo of the units you guys are getting? Lets shake things up Wink.

Thanks!! Wink

I try to see the lighter side of stuff,since life in general is a bitch...............

I'm not so much a fan of BFL,I just think they're offering is better than most.I have purchased from them in the past with minor issues,but nothing was a deal stopper. & will continue to do so in the future.I will also try to spread my money with other companies who's offer is close to thiers (warranty,trade ins,etc..

I wish more people could talk like you and I are doing right now. (More in the center than at either extreme)

The only reason why I purchased from Avalon is because they had the options I was looking for. I wanted a stand alone system rather than a USB connected system. (More like DeepBits stand alones system than BFL's tethered systems...but at a fraction of the price.)

I see you have purchased from BFL before, so you know what their hardware is like and you know of the quality. So I understand your view on how some of the weird theories people talk about on Bitcointalk are _way out there_ and usually baseless. I have become rather desensitized to some of the bogus ideas floating around about BFL.

What worries me is the lack of a serious warranty on Avalons part. 1 Year is not alot. I also wonder what the fine print will be for BFL on what parts they cover for a lifetime vs what only has 6 months. (I think they stated the fan is only for 6 months)

-----------------------

Honestly, with all these delays...I wouldn't be at all surprised if bASIC is the first to ship their products. They aren't modifying things anywhere near as constantly as the other two.

It's not so much HOW you talk/communicate with each other as to WHAT you talk/communicate about  Roll Eyes

Some of these theories that are brought up are very far outside "normal" thinking & just beg to be trolled....................

Good for you on going with who you prefered to order from  Wink

BFL is far from perfect,but they've done right so far,as far as I'm concerned.The Sonny thing threw me a little,but after reading up on it,I thought "hes not the only one in charge,so I'll overlook it,until its proven otherwise".

1 year will be plenty,you're probably gonna want to upgrade to the next gen ASIC's before then anywho  Wink Will they offer a trade in too,from the 1st gen  Huh

BFL said,they'll do the trade in thing on the next gen,so that clinched it for me,+ maybe being first to mine with ASIC.............maybe/hopefully  Grin

I'm opposed to wasting their or my time over such a trivial amount when their product isn't even in the wild yet. I'd much rather they spend their time making sure there is a timely and proper delivery than responding to a non-issue of a perceived few dollar discrepancy in pricing.
Well, then you and I are on two different topics.

My interests weren't focused on a ($1) dollars difference.

Come to think of it, didn't BFL say that they're having trouble getting enough of the non-ASIC components to ship promptly? I'm sure that offering Mini-Singles at the same price/performance as the Singles can't be helping with that, since the Mini-Single is obviously going to use more than half a Single's worth of components...

there's no damn thing called a mini-single

Everyone who voted for a raise in Gh/s should contact them to see what they would willing to do for their customers.

http://www.butterflylabs.com/contact/

Are you serious? Is he serious?
Perhaps willing customers would pay a premuim in private and get a Modded mining rig for 5 or more Gh/s system?

BFL could call it a "custom ordered unit". Why not at least float them the idea and see if they are willing?

There is a water block option for that reason, I would suppose.

I am no fanboy so I don't have any issues with floating ideas to any company willing to consider these options.

--------------------------

People should never be hesitant to ask a company how far they are willing to go if you can pad their pocket with some extra cash (or...BTC). It would give some an advantage over others and it costs customer something extra. Both parties can get what they want. Hopefully you won't object to the idea of people contacting customer service to propose private modifications to their orders?

Or

Are you objecting to the idea of people contacting BFL to see what they can do for specific customers?

To above 2 posts, if you look at the poll, you see it's not just me, many people agree with the idea.

Also there is a big difference between Walmart and BFL.

Walmart buys with their own money, then resells a ready product.

The entire BFL company is funded by the Bitcoin mining community right now.

Your poll doesn't match your post; it doesn't ask if it's unfair that the little single is half the price of the big single. It asks if BFL should update the firmware of the single to upgrade it to 65GH/s. Everyone who's ordered a single would agree with that even if they think the reasoning behind your post is moronic.

Thank you, I was having trouble putting it into words because I was so stupefied by this entire thread.
