I couldn't agree with you more, but the issue here is that Bitmain has to lower their prices in order to remain (at the top) in the market and competitive.
Otherwise it wouldn't be profitable for me to get an Antminer for 1.45BTC now.
Their competitors have lowered their prices, and today when we were all expecting to grab a couple of Ants (at a lower price) and nothing happened and we get a post that they are all sold out!!!!!
WHEN?
I was behind this all the time!

Anyway, I believe that Bitmain should lower their prices to match the competition also given the facts that 3 days from now the difficulty will increase and no machines will be delivered before that,
It is a fair request I believe.
That was my point in the first place
