Might as well use the $41 one as you'll only end up with being able to use 10%  of the value of the final price of the T17 after you take the credit off, which will be about $543 so $54.30 credit on any of the 10% vouchers. Sell the others.

yeah

I have one of each
  41 10%
140 10%
467 10%
689 10%

all expire in 26 days.

I also have a 275  credit

which they say I have and are yet to post it.

My goal is to buy a t17  using the 140 coupon and the 275 credit

If they do it and ship it I will be square with them.

Assuming my s17 pro ships  between jan 11-20

With luck  by the end of the month  I will have  2 units a t17 and a s17 pro.

making me squared up with them.

mine were straight $150 coupons - only restrictions are that order had to be over $500 to use them.

The 10% coupons are for the T17 and T17E purchases that have been shipped at end December.

They have face values of either $67 or $140 of the ones I have seen. And they expire 31st Jan

I think that time-constricted 10% coupons that I got are mostly useless, especially since there is not much to use them on considering just 5 mo (and with laate jan shipping more like 4 mo) until halving.

All you got was 10% coupons?

No 30% ones?

BTW

I got

some 10%  yet to use
some 30%  used them all
some btc     $114 used worth

credits  275 and 1185  used the 1185

 and trying to use the 275  along with an 81 dollar coupon on a t17

I am still working on my final adjustment.

I am due a 275 credit

I would take it on a t17

I would end up  getting

a   140   usd worth of btc refund
a 1189 credit  towards a s17pro
a   275   credit towards a t17

grand total of 1604  back after the fact .

vs coupons  before the fact which were

368
599
375
150
250

1742  in coupons

3346 total.  almost there  just a little more to do this.

Got to politely keep on them:

I just sent this email in response to my request for refund.

On 12/6/2019, you expected one month to process this refund. It is now 1/3/2020. I hope the process will be completed shortly.

I asked them for an update. Technically they haven't broken the time window since they told me it could take up to 2 months. I think they are hoping for BTC price to go up since it was over $10k when I made purchase in September. Everyone else they seem to have told weeks or 1 month.

They paid me  about 2 month wait.

I've had the credit showing on my account for some time now but still waiting for them to process refund. It's been 1 month since I made the request and gave them my address.

Pressure them via emails, they will speed it up probably. Especially if they have broken the time window they gave you.

@ Alec  new miners lets say s19  My guess is an april preorder  with a june delivery.

on topic.

my t17+  64th  has shipped it is due on Jan 2

so it shipped about  dec 30   vs dec 11-20

my t17 42 th shipped dec 18th

vs dec 20-31

That kind of evens out for late or early shipping.  Thus I won't ask for any adjustments or credits due to late shipping.

However  my t17+  was  1354.95 + a 375 coupon  or 1729.95

bitmain values    order at 1079.95

that is

1729.95
1079.95

650  credit.   I think I am double counting the coupon of 375 in my favor.

so 650-375 = 275 credit   due  as a credit.

Once the gear arrives  I will ask for a 275 credit.

I will then be squared away on everything  other then the s17 pro.   I have yet to figure out if I am owed more on that one.  Since I don't know the final price.

All in all,  I got a 1185 credit  and a 114 refund   so far.

And I would say all fall gear works.

and I would say  while it was more work then I want to do it was worth it.

By January we will have 1480th mining.



It is jan 1 gear is due on Jan 2

I sent this in now.

Hi I ordered a t17+ 64th unit on 10-26-2019 . It was due to ship dec 11-dec 20. I paid you via paypal the amount I paid was $1354.95 after coupons .

You adjusted price to $1079.95 > I will attach both documents to this request. I believe I should get a credit for 1354.95 - 1079.95 = $275.00 usd. Since I used paypal to pay this I am going to request a refund of $275.00 to my paypal charge.

I will await your reply. I know it is 3:30 am in China on Thursday the 2nd in china as it is 3:30 pm on weds the 1st here in USA. I will not contact paypal for refund as I will wait for your response before I do anything.

Best regards,

So with luck

1) gear comes on Jan 2
2) it works
3) they refund me $275 to my paypal account
4) I would then simply need to get my last order a s17pro  due to ship jan 11-20

If all 4 things happen I will not order until  Feb or maybe March  since the threat of new super gear in 5nm is arising.

anyone else received coupons for each order on their account?

(received a couple of $140 just a bit earlier, with an expiry of 31st of jan 2020).

I hope the above are separate from the refund expected and only offered due to the price drop in the new miners (yes, again a price drop).

Edit

Curious how long will take to get new miners on sale based on this: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/tsmc-to-produce-5nm-asics-for-bitmain-canaan-in-2020

I think I got sent a 114 usd refund today.

0.0151 BTC

This would cover my s9k purchases.
They also gave me 1189 credit to a s17pro due in jan.
That fixes my 2x t17e order.

I am waiting on my t 17+  64th model

It is late and needs an adjustment credit

So far they have been doing stuff slow.but sure.

At stryfe merry Christmas to the two of us.

Hey guys, I am a bit confused about sequencing of events.
two scenarios:

1. apply coupon, then ask to apply credit, then finalize order (in other word, even if order expire, they will still allow coupon)

OR

2. make order (without coupon), then ask to apply credit. Once credit is applied, use coupon.

Your help would be appreciated.
