How long should I wait for an order status to change to paid, if I paid by BitPay?
For me it was one day.

2 Saturns both Day1   Wink


as for snooping the inventory by typing in max order amounts, that can just be a place holder limiter.  As in the storefront assumes extracting from a live inventory but since they don't really have one they have to throw a number in that field to count down from or recode it.

relax

Did you people do this to BFL last summer or since you didn't you are all freaking out paranoid and attacking KnC?

I know Rampion is in that scorned by BFL camp.  He needs counseling

Order number? and when did you pay?

first order was 5xx 6/4 and then figured out to make second order 6/5 and order was up to 12xx

was a lot of action between those days.  Still shows I am paying twice for shipping.  I don't really care, but I figure they will deal with that come shipping time if they have any refunds or not on shipping together.  Not worth bothering at this point

Day 1 here as well for a Jupiter with order number 8##  Grin
Ordered 6/4 and payment cleared 6/7. Was not one of the 1-500.

Hopefully this is a good sign that they can scale to any number they need to. I just feel bad for anyone who bought one of those 1-500 pre-orders at a premium from someone else. They could have ordered today and probably only been 2 days behind everyone else.

Really? That's interesting actually, since I'm in the exact same boat (paid 6/4, order #8xx) and I'm just showing "Paid" on the status. Bummer dude Sad

My problem is:

They take a lot time to read threads and post some new products.

But not a single word about the paid preorders from April and the actually queue position of all the 1-500 customers. Roll Eyes
I checked today, queue orders have been added, but it's a bit obtuse how to check. Take your order number, go to the homepage and plug it in on order tracking at the bottom, it shows then as a comment there.

Thanks for the Heads-up!

Status:Paid
Comment: This order has been scheduled for Shipping on day 1 of production

2,000 Mercury on stock. Wow. This looks bad to me. You can say they are "listening to the market", but its clear to me that if they had enough orders for Jupiter + Saturn they wouldn't do the additional work required to develop and sell a different, smaller unit, opening the preorders for it in a record time.

IMO, this only means they didn't get enough orders of the previous units. This is starting to look bad.
The design of the case and PCB is the same as Jupiter/Saturn, just 1 chip rather than 4. So, it's basically zero extra design. Just a way to sell more overall units. Perhaps a 2nd chip order, as it's scheduled to ship in October.

KnC has stated many times that they were looking to aim to the higher segment of the market, because scaling up to massive demand was difficult.

Indeed, if they are big enough is always better to deal with fewer, bigger customers, than more small customers.

The fact they are backtracking so fast looks like a bad omen to me.
Pshaw. There's what you'd like to do and there's what the market wants. They have long conducted a poll on their site and clearly most interest is in a cheaper device. They're not doing one in the hundreds-of-dollars range like BFL that would give them thousands of customers or w/e, this is a $2k device that is a good compromise between their aim to do a higher-cost device and avoid masses of customers logistically.

They already said in a subtle way that the chips order was not placed yet as they were still discussing "how much" with the fab, and figuring out "how many".
They also said the order would be placed the week after the Mars promo.

I hope this new, smaller unit does not mean they need more  preorders before being able to place the chip order.

Now I will get slaughtered by the wishful thinkers who have wet dreams about KnC delivering in August. Good enough, I know my assumptions are based on rational and cold analysis of facts and not on hopes or emotion driven conclusions.
Your assumptions are, like everyone else's here, simply an attempt at building reasonable inductive likelihoods. Some put more or less emphasis on different aspects and conclude different things.

And those who perceive the state of things closest to the reality that actually results will be the most rewarded.
