They have been selling close to 25 units a day.
Now they are no longer available 225 to 0.

No ! I missed the Neptune's  
I got the BTC I needed this morning ...

Some Neptune's are available again !

I agree ...........My friend Phoneix thinks Im wrong .........and maybe he's right .......He been right 75%  of the time .........

I believe KnC is and wants to continue to be a reputable business ........KnC  please give us an official  "News update": ........not by  Bitcoinorama  ........I hate picking on him .......he seems like a good guy , but in one sence , he's just a pawn , a front  ....... an escape goat to spread out the focus ......... bottom line ... money talks , bullshit walks ........Give me some truth , I think you guys have the best product out there ............but this silence  is pissing me off ....................and more importantly (for you)     hurting your rep.

Silence or half truths only makes  BFL  sound  like reasonable  people............

This forum has a certain amount of "Cause and effect" .....Bad News travels  twice as fast as good .  

My business needs more certainty so I can continue to support and purchase from your business .........please

I certainly appreciate his honesty. I'm conflicted on what to do at this point.

hi! nice to see we are in the same boat...(looks around for others)

Hi Searing

I say , give KnC a bit more time . They understand our situation and they do want to keep the majority of us happy ..................so lets give them a chance to give us more info ........this negative reaction will have an effect on their future prospects ..........They will do their best to keep us happy ...................They understand BFL has shot themselves in the foot ...........KnC is aiming to "Under promise and Over deliver"

Lets give them a little more time

yeah when I'm conflicted however I freeze like a rabbit (ie hold) so ...just ruminating on the fact that it is unlikely I will (can) upgrade (I assume the price would be a bit steep for individual modules anyway...and/or would not apply to oct orders in any event due to incompatibility with NOV last run stuff)

so my 'eggs' are all in the Neptune basket it seems......

here we go again (deja vu!)

p.s. also checked the knc site on Neptune orders...same price 10k or so.....says 170 are left.....for those interested

me "coward that I am" I will probably wait...and hold (with my 2 brothers) the 2 neptunes I have on order (1 batch one and 1 batch two)..........pucker up and hold I guess....

(good to have goals)

$44 million dollars in preorders. Two months later, announce they are in preliminary design stages... and don't intend to rush it. So crypto

How can you tell?

add 1 to cart and then go into shopping cart and raise amount to over 200 Neptunes and recalculate.  It then shows only 170 available in red below the quantity entered.

So they had 250 neptunes left two days ago. Then suddenly they sold out. Then they annnounced there would be no more jupiters. Now turns out they are not sold out of neptunes. And people have all those bitcoins handy. And now they have 170 neptunes left?

Fear makes people go crazy (and buy).

[Phoenix1969]

cool, if everyone unloads from early batches, and the units get bumped to a later delivered batch, my CA Batch Neptunes could be BOSS if the diff should stall any... Bail...Bail...Bail....RUN!
Yeah, I know.....wishful thinking...    hehe

[Sitarow]

It can take a few hour's to clear up incomplete orders. I give it a day or two and then all unpaid orders will be canceled. This will free up systems for order.

This may be the last batch untill they start shipping.

I'm not being vague.

I've just got back to Stockholm and got you an update immediately, as promised. The first day I'm back.

Your freaking out about the Neptune design and it's exactly where it needs to be.

It's been worked on throughout Christmas. They have a working FPGA copy. That's quite significant progress as is. 20nm is absolute breakneck cutting edge tech and they don't want to screw the design up. They started just before Christmas and they are already at this stage. Would I call it preliminary design? yes I would. I would call everything before RTL submission that. Would you rather I lie? You claim I'm being vague and I'm actually being very specific. I've told you precisely where we are at without giving away anything of significant competitive sensitivity. I could be vague and just say it's all on track and you'd be none the wiser. Where do you expect them to be at this stage after working solidly through Christmas?! Designs aren't just pulled out of hats and components need to be sourced in volume with short lead times and guess what a lot of those guys take Christmas off. Rest assured what needs to be done is being done and the Q1/Q2 delivery estimation is there to give us the breathing space to do it professionally and to a level of competency that we believe is achievable.

Also first thing I was told on arrival was they sold out of Neptunes the night before. Do not shoot the messenger. If Andreas/Sam are going to add to the stock overnight between Friday/Saturday - nothing to do with me, but I'd be surprised if they did as they gave no impression they would and I was at the office later than they were.

[Phoenix1969]

so, 3-4 months for neptune?   Dont sweat it...give it to us straight!...   we appreciate all you do indeed bro

Do you really think that he, as an employee of KNC will tell you this so that people will quote him later if it takes longer than 3-4 months? As much as I like KNC that's one reason I decided not to go with Neptune (another reason is not having enough money). Don't want to go through stress of waiting like waiting for October unit. Nevertheless, needless to say, it was a great feeling once I received it, to just plug it in and it starting to hash.

[RHA]

I think there were 170 unpaid orders which have been canceled when there were no money transfers coming for given time.
So there was no need for enlarging the batch size.

And thank you Bitcoinorama for the updates. They are detailed enough for me.

As you see, people would like to buy complete Jupiters rather than the upgrades. It's because every upgrade is sent expensively as separate parcel, one need to buy heatsinks and usually make a soldering job...

[btcspender]

Lots of stress over neptunes to tell you the truth I'm more bummed over a jupiter batch. I'm not concerned over neptunes yet, in fact I just bought a second one

Hey 'Orama!

We all knew it it's Q1/Q2. Part of the gamble.

But we have to remain competetive against other asic companies. So I think not Neptune is the bigger problem. The bigger problem is that you doesn't want to sell Jupiters until the Neptunes.

It's not customer protection, it's bullshit if you sell only upgrade modules. As I stated before, I had big trust in Knc and I was a happy customer. I "KEPT MY COINS HANDY" to buy Jupters to get enough hashpower to stay competetive.

Then no news. I bought 7 Antminer.

Still no news.

Then you come here and the that only upgrade modules and this bottleneck shit.

So please tell Sam an Andreas to give as an offical statement about Jupiters.

WILL BE AVALIABE FOR SALE? IF YES WHEN?

IF NO, TELL US STRAIGHT!

If no, we have to buy hashrate from other companies to REAMAIN COMPETETIVE.

And I repeat myself, I don't care about Neptunes. I think they will a good deal. I care about the next 3-4 months.

Thanks I'm glad they put up 170 more.
I had planed to buy 2 more neptunes or as many jups as I could get with 20 coin. But I figured somewhere in the middle may be best so 1 neptune and wait a while to see if any jupiters do come up and if they don't then I'll see what else I can get my hands on in feb.
