I have added on another topic that BFL takes a cut when refunding customers over paypal payments. I have included a screenshot for people to see.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=136392.msg1774005#msg1774005I would exercise caution if you plan to order from BFL as they have not been very honest with their shipping dates and 1GH/1W power consumption rates as was promised previously to pre-order customers.
Just a point of fact, this JML guy is completely fabricating the whole "BFL takes a cut" stuff. It is patently false and ludicrous. 100% incorrect information. BFL does not now, nor has ever taken any sort of additional funds when refunding a customer.
I can confirm this, my PayPal refund was for the entire amount.

Still of the opinion that it wasn't set up as a scam in the first place but they are keeping customers hanging on for kit that if it does every ship will already be too slow and out of date. There is evidence that they have build something, why would you bother if it was an outright scam?
