At the current pace their Singles will catch up to my order date by the end of the month. Might have to just convert to Singles and sell them one by one. Was hoping to do this all in one go
I think you are wrong, even if you convert you rig to singles they will start shipping just when they get to your rig order in the shipping queue, and they wont send everything at once, your shipment will divided on 3 small ones of 3x500 or 8x3.
I am not 100% sure but it is worth checking with them.
They are not holding back the converted rigs on the count of held up standard rigs that are ahead of you, as I understand:
"We moved a lot of MiniRig orders this week by putting the boards in Singles cases instead of the MiniRig case for customers who have opted for this configuration"
So if you "opted" for singles, they will ship you singles according to your pay date, along with the rest of them.
Guess I'll find out either way.
Ok you check on that, you wont loose anything, because I remember a member from UK who converted his rig and didn't get it the way you imagine, I will dig for that thread, but it is BFL so you never know how they work, and you have to get that thing ASAP or you are fucked, I can just image your frustration as KNC showed prove for their chips (yet this doesn't mean they have a working prototype)
Edit: I fount it here you can ask him how it went https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3108893
