Lets hope my waiting for higher BTC price paid off, too bad I was on vacation when BTC was at 15.4.

I ordered and paid for 2 SCs on 9/3 and have yet to receive any sort of confirmation from BFL with an order number, that happen to anyone else? No response from support.


You mean you paid 1 whole day ago? Heh.
Dude, you have to wait.  Takes time.

How long did it take just to get the order confirmation after you sbumitted?
Then, how long did it take to get payment request.

For me, it took well over a week each time for each part.


SgtMoth ordered after me 9/6 and HE got an order number, what gives?

"9/06/12, 7357, N, 1, 0, 0,-sgtmoth"

*screwed up on first order, had to reorder...

Wow! they're up to order numbers in the 7000's already!

they did not start at zero

we do not know that they use a consecutive numbering system

I'm confident that the order numbers are consecutive. Not all of them are actually payed for (they are simply generated when a order is submitted in their system). I think they started around 2000.

They start ~1600, and I'm pretty sure they're consecutive as well. I ran thru 7 orders placing mine, and 6 of them were consecutive.

1656 is the first order of SC equipment. Some of the orders are also for the old model that people are still ordering.

i am on the fence, i would order a jalepeno if i KNEW when i was going to get it.  I dont want to tie up funds right now with a "mystery box"  there is so many variables, but i have no doubts when these things start shipping the difficulty is going to skyrocket every week.  GPU mining will be eliminated in short order but you probably wont even notice that they quit. 

I think these devices will lower the entry for people to join in on the mining.  I expect difficulty will continue to rise until a single jalepeno only make about $10 a month. 

Ok. So do you want to get your Jalapeno sooner rather than later, before the reward half and the difficulty rise?

Personally I beleive the two to be very close, Quote from BFL about release date.

We plan on shipping the ASIC versions of our products by the end of October or early November, depending on quantity of units available. Please see the FAQ with regards to 1/3 shipping plan.

and the Estimated block reward dropping to 25BTC?  http://serason.com/projects/emccharts/countdown.php

Which puts it at early Dec, So the time from release to time to block drop is 1 month!
How many will actually receive their order in this time?

It's almost timed perfect, Almost like there was some thought behind all this...........

Well that's my point. These Jalapenos might eventually make $10 a month or even less, but that first month before difficulty reaches 4 million and blocks halve to 25? Try $10 a day.

Total Orders (By Last Seen)   5217

Current last is 6296
Current first is 1656
So, at absolute most, there could only be 4640 suggested orders  (paid and not)

Also implies about 60 orders a day.  I wish my company did this well.

Has there been a good way to determine how many orders vs how many paid orders?

Guess....
4640 / 162 (line items listed) = 1 in 28 orders are paid (reported to thread)   is about 3.5% reported as paid.
(Obviously it is higher since not everyone is posting their paid orders to the thread)

In any case, it does give a real good idea of how much the company is taking in and how busy they might be.

20-6 = 14 minirigs being upgraded, but most are not from the original BFL thread.   
Maybe it's fair to say three times reported buys is closer to actual buy.   So, 1 in 9 are paid.
Approx 500 paid.   
6 SC (not upgraded) * 3 times reported * 30k = over half million $ for one sku.

Ideas?
