It's apparent that KNC have vastly over-promised. I could almost accept that, if they'd admitted it in the last week and offered some new schedule for delivery.

But now it's 6pm in Sweden, close of business on 15th October and they have said nothing. Total blackout. Totally ignorance.

I guesstimate about half the orders have shipped by today. If that is correct, that leaves, say, 800 units, conservatively 700 jupiters at $8000 = $5.6 million worth of customers they are telling to go suck a d!@k.

Disgusting company, disgusting lack of communications, disgusting contempt shown for customers.

It's time for me anyway, to contact my credit card company.

Total blackout? Tons of people got shipping info yesterday...

Did you not make the cut off because you paid late? You should have contacted your credit card company weeks ago if you aren't in it to be a miner. If you just want BTC buy them and stop being such a cry baby. Miner's life is hard. Suck it up or get out. Sure as hell beat any three letter acronym that starts with a b and ends with an l. Even if they catch on fire.

They promised a certain date to deliver...they didn't...end of story. Welcome to the real world, where if a company lies and misses their targets then they are obligated to refund. Or where if they sell something that doesn't exist they are committing fraud.

The whole ASIC manufacturing community should stop being little babies and trying to fund their dodgy operations with customer money. This ain't kickstarter!! Put your money where your mouth is and fund it your bloody self, go to a bank, dodgy uncle, shady loan shark. Stop expecting factories in China (this may or may not apply to KFC miner, frankly i don't GAF)  to delivery your pcb boards on time. If you have never been there and seen them face to face or stepped in their office, then you are going to get the bare minimal of service. Everyone knows this about China factories. You have got to go there and take them out for dinner. Then you will suddenly find parts being delivered on time without delays.

Avenger has every right to be pissed off.
