Have you seen what these are selling for on Ebay? No need to be a dick about others misfortune. Ass-hat!
What misfortune? I'm just saying the USD price went UP and it ships LATER. To me that seems crazy. But this is not a life-or-death decision, don't like the price - don't buy, whether it's Bitmain or eBay or whatever. Also the thing with ":" and ")" is called a smiley, look it up.
Less on a LTC cost basis, it WAS 40 but this batch was "only" 25.something - for the lucky few that could actually get an order placed.
20 tries? I was well over 100 by the time it finally let me back in - only to find it was now out of stock.
That's true, although 40 LTC was a long time ago, for a September or early October batch I think. The most recent batch was Oct 21-31, and it cost ~32 LTC or so. Basically Bitmain took out any potential savings from the LTC rise. Not that it matters, I think they could sell it for 50 LTC and likely it would still sell out.
