Well if they compensate "lost mining time" or some such, its fine i guess. Of course they need to compensate for the price difference in Batch 1 versus Batch 2 and 3. According to their own offer, anything more than 10 days after the shipping start date is "late".
And i don't remember Bitmain ever saying "screw you guys haha no compensation. In my experience.
On the one's that did not get machine till after the date. I think it is pretty sure some sort of partial refund or coupon will come. Them sending out coupons to all as far as price difference between batches not sure if they will be that nice.
We won't really know anything likely till after "National Holiday from Oct. 1 to 7". So I have a feeling this thread will be kinda a source of sour feelings till after the holiday.
