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.
put this into context. i ordered a lot of hashfast systems and they're more than 3 months late(!) and I'm not angry at them either. Sure, I'm negotiating with them - in good faith - as to what happens now, as i feel I've overpaid with my order compared to when I'm going to receive it. i paid a lot more, per gh for my hashfast systems than i did for my cointerra systems on the basis that the hashfast ones were sposed to arrive 2-3 months ahead of the cointerra ones. Cointerra by comparison was a bargain - especially now that it looks like they both could ship in the same few week window, yet one was significantly cheaper than the other. had hashfast delivered in october, that too would've been well priced... and it was on that basis that i ordered from them.
I'm definitely not angry at cointerra as they're not even late yet... and I'm still hopeful that the january batch will ship in january - they still have two weeks left (to start shipping, at least). if it slips into february i won't be angry at them either.. as thats part of the deal i signed up to. if they delay til march or april, i will probably start to get more anxious! but angry... no, not ever!
if i was ordering new equipment, NOW, i couldn't get it in the same timeframe, at a similar price.
btw, if anyone does want to cancel their batch 1 hashfast or batch 1 cointerra, let me know... as i might want to buy it ! i can't buy anything cheaper in that delivery timeframe.
And if you don´t have funds to buy them anymore, then i will buy them! just PM to me and we are in deal!
you are just hitting the point: its not only keeping the shipping terms (of course its important and would be nice), more important is who is delivering first!
i will buy any early order of CT with reasonable price.
I'm definitely not angry at cointerra as they're not even late yet...
Cointerra is late for their December and early January batch deliveries and that is not even up for debate. What is up for debate is what the value will be to you when you receive what you ordered.
I personally still think that Cointerra has the best value if they ship what was advertised before April, 2014. But if they cannot ship what was advertised, they would lose credibility, and worst, they will take a hit on their profit margin. So you see, they cannot afford to ship less than what was advertised. They are going to resolve what ever outstanding issues they have, or die trying. So that only increases my confidence that I will get what was advertised, though it will arrive much later than what was advertised.
notice that he said his HF orders are late since Oct yet Conterra isn't per the ToS... well, that ToS says that HF is only late a few weeks not months as well
you are not really right. HF is not late only few weeks. they are late months. what you mean is that they are few weeks over their (full) customer-protection-plan... there is a big difference!
