ordered 20 Neptunes...
Go big or go home motherfucker.....


You have to explain us how you did it because there is currently a 10 units limit per customer, at least for me (I tried too).

You can, and the way you do it is pay for one order and then repeat the process, but please use my reseller link, I'm gobsmacked no one ever does...

Man I was really hoping for more concrete info about gen2 before they opened the order-book and while I have a lot of faith in KNC, my spidey senses are starting to tingle a bit. They've turned this into a big gamble once again.

I'm very surprised that they are taking pre-orders with a "Q1/Q2" ship date. Might was well say "first half of 2014" which is a HUGE 6 month variance making it close to impossible to estimate BTC yield. I personally believe that they didn't initially plan to start taking orders this early with so little gen2 info but were tempted by the record exchange rate knowing it would allow them to sell more at a higher price. This article, published a little over 10 hours ago, says "Cole is taking the same approach with the new box, saying that its 2TH performance is a minimum figure" yet their announcement shortly after says 3TH so I'm not feeling like they do not have a concrete plan for gen2 yet.

Next they are no longer accepting PayPal leaving only non-reversible payments which is slightly suspicious. What happens if BTC price crashes early next year and everybody starts asking for refund after they've spent a lot of funds on RND? Could be a nightmare...

I just sold $13k worth of Avalons and am SOOOOO tempted to order a Neptune but there's such a huge variance in the estimated BTC yield I can't really accurately compare to investing directly in BTC. While I'm happy with my Jupiter, my difficulty prediction was way off and I would have been better off investing directly in BTC and do not want to make that same mistake again. Decisions decisions...

anyone paid with bank transfer before? this will be my first time doing so....seems complex. do i have to call them to see if they got the funds etc?

I bought my jup with this method and as long as you follow knc instructions everything will be ok.

if you've already placed the order you'll find the instructions at the bottom "PROFORMA INVOICE" you should have received via email.




Do you know how long the order will go unpaid before it is auto-canceled?

from  http://www.coindesk.com/kncminer-pre-orders-next-asic

Quote
The 20nm chips will be fabricated by the firm’s current ASIC fabrication partner, TSMC. He

said that the non-recurring engineering (NRE) cost for the chips would be around three

times
that of the 28nm device (this came in with a total NRE of $4.7m, although not all

of those costs were attributable to TSMC).

so (guesstimate) NRE costs for 20nm are about $12 mln, devided by 1200 units of first batch = $ 10000 / per unit

Does KNC ship after having paid? Or are they another BFL?

Reading, a useful skill I can highly recommend.

Pointless trolling here is a waste of time, we all have 1st hand experience that KNC deliver and the products are good.

We're past that "will they" stage, now into "will it pay again next time" stage.

We all seem to have a view on that, but it's  a gamble we'd probably all agree would be better taken with KNC than most other manufacturers.

Hope your ebay sale goes well Pheonix, that would be just about the ideal scenario ..buy rigs, mine them at their peak then dump them for a large enough profit to pay for the upgrade to gen2 and still keep the BTC mined Smiley  If you'd been told you could do this 2 months ago you'd not have believed it I bet Smiley

I told him and others.. nobody listens to me lol.
Josh is bored today man......quit feeding him! lol

wow.....

Care to explain yourself?

i feel if you have read any of the past comments, you would see that knc delivered 1 DAY late, compared to bfl's 1 year.....pretty self explanatory.

Lord almighty is helping me to make the right decision about Neptune. Since I have neither enough cash nor btcs to spend, I think Lord almighty has been clear enough.

Well to be fair, the website wording is a bit misleading. It says something like they ship based on payment, which means when things /are/ shipping, it is shipped based on full payment. It can be taken to mean they ship when you pay.
