the way you've tended to address me so far has not encouraged any productive communication. there's alot in that paragraph of yours. what is it you want me to answer?
Oh just looking for a civil discussion on any or all points brought up in that post.
Or since you have such close ties with HashFast, maybe their opinion?
You can't deny that the landscape has changed regarding pricing since they've first announced their pricing. There are a number of other companies starting to come out with their prices and estimated delivery around the same time for much less.
at least you and i can now make some progress.
the Dec 31 Refund Policy is something they had in place before i even met them. how they arrived at it, i don't know. i can tell you that from their perspective it's fair and they've said that they fully plan on honoring it using different options i alluded to up further in this thread.
as for taking cc's we've already gone over that and if you really disagree you should bring it up with them.
the only change in "pricing" that i'm aware of is KNC's reduction to $5000 in Nov. imo, and mine alone, it seems a little bit of a desperate move to retain customers. the question is, can they deliver at that price and still remain profitable? since you were at HashFast and signed an NDA, i'm sure that you're aware that HF believes their chip has significant performance efficiency advantages over KNC's as well as lower production costs.
perhaps they have every right to have there pricing at $5600 which also happens to be the currently the best value out there? no one actually knows until these chips and machines are actually out there chugging away.
