Re: CoinTerra announces its first ASIC - Hash-Rate greater than 500 GH/s

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

hashfast charged me more for an october batch than cointerra did for a january batch (several times more). neither of them have shipped yet. i suspect both of them could potentially ship quite soon (week or two?). whether either of them ship by end of jan is unknown but i hope they both will. at least in cointerra's case.. they're talking to us. they give regular weekly updates which makes me feel a little more informed.

I'm more worried about whether i should give up on hashfast and cancel my order (and take my dollar refund option) than i am my cointerra order, which still, even today, even allowing for an amount of lateness... is STILL a better deal for me than the hashfast deal i have. there's a huuuge difference in the amount i paid cointerra per gh than what i paid hashfast... and being commercially minded, i have to take that into account in my calculations of whats the best outcome.
