I'm #89619.... nothing yet.

Decided to take the money I was going to use for the order and invest in a few different cryptos. Made some stupid mistakes on how to get money into my wallet and ended up paying way too much in fees.

Luckily, I'm currently +$80 after making back all the fees.
Cool. However, as I and others have said a lot here: Love the miners but the ordering back-end of their biz after placing the order well... Leaves a lot to be desired and I gather each order is verified/vetted/checked against stock ready to be shipped/etc manually before they send the BTC amount due and address.

End result is that it *will* get done.
  Eventually.
Longest I've waited was the last batch, ordered Aug 8 and got the canned order conf invoice and bit about Wire info (despite making it clear am using BTC when I ordered...) was about a week before they asked us 'still want?' and another 1-2 days before they sent the info. Shorted time I've waited was in Feb?, only 2-3 days before I got the amount due/address.

Er?

They really need to get a decent accounting/stock status/web-ordering biz software.... Been available for decades, ya know?



I hear ya there... I certainly hope it does not take weeks. If there happened to be a Canaan.io employee reading this thread and wanted a random order number to expedite, MY ORDER IS #89619!


Honestly, they seem like a normal company that has faced explosive growth due to a very popular line of products. Unfortunately, it has resulted in their issues with order and production backlog. Hopefully the only negative will be the slow process and wait. I am hoping they don't develop the problems Bitmain is experiencing with quality (S9 and R4)...

The only thing worse than waiting months for a miner is waiting months for a miner and then having it quickly die.
