Only someone who works for CT would say all that. You are obviously not waiting for a machine, and people should notice this. Stop comparing yourself to what the other companies have done. It won't work.
I suggest all of us adopt zero tolerance for this BS. If we work as a group, we can stop this and get what we deserve
Also keep in mind that there is a lot more a stake since BTC took such a jump. People will more likely take action, contrary to customers of VMC who are happy to get their refunds since their orders are garbage anyway

dont be ridiculous. im a wholesale customer of several of the bitcoin mining companies and so speak to the founders regularly. as you'd expect, bigger customers have a tiny bit more 'access'. I have a pretty big order with both hashfast and cointerra (tens of systems). Actually, in dollar terms, my order with hashfast is bigger than my order with cointerra simply because it was supposed to be delivered earlier and thus cost more per gh. both hashfast and cointerra would probably confirm i may well be in the top ten of their customers but nowhere the biggest with either of them. i am also a happy customer of kncminer and have several jupiters hashing away at their hosting center and i never fail to say how awesome they are or what a good job they did... and ive also bought miners from bfl, bitfury and invested in asicminer. in short, i try to be balanced and try to order from several bitcoin mining companies at the same time to spread my risk but also keep me abreast of what everyone's up to.
my background is in computer games, microprocessors and online poker, and more recently bitcoin mining. i am reasonably technical, having been both a software guy all my life and also a strong tech background (my team invented the Super FX chip for nintendo... which was one of the first 3d graphics chips - maybe even the first GPU ever). It was inside the game StarFox. We also made the game Croc, which was one of the first '3d platform games'.
i just want to try and help you be realistic. your order with cointerra may be similar to mine. and in my case, what happens if theyre late is spelled out quite clearly, but for you to assume they are already late, when theyre not technically late seems like jumping the gun. if youre not happy, ask for a refund. im not in that position. im reasonably confident i will get my miners and i think they were very well priced (a good deal, compared to the others ive bought).

Well since you have so much extra 'access' why don't you tell us wtf is going on over there, and if you're such big buyer i don't know why you're acting so cool and collected about this and defending them, you should be more angry than anyone on this forum.
