What I want to know is what happened at BFL between 3/31/13 and 6/30/13. It took over 3 months for BFL to go from "shipping" Luke's Single to shipping my Single, and my Single was one of the first 100 ordered. During that 3 month delay I lost the potential return of my 209BTC outlay. I want to know if BFL was actively mining at extended length with first Singles. Ultimately I was only able to mine a little over 17BTC with something I spent 209BTC. There's not making positive ROI and then there's having a company steal your money outright by using your hardware while blatantly telling lies "oh we can't get it to work". Angry

A lot of units were going through testing some in the glassed room at the entrance and some in the semi trailer backed up to the loading dock where Bruce first worked when he was first hired. A whole bunch were sent to the butterfly lab's other facility (not one of their warehouses) in which Bruce should know where that one is. After the long testing period the miners were sent back to us where they were packaged and mailed out to customers. Later some of those miners starting coming back to us and were unpacked inspected and resent out to new customers. Jody handled that aspect mostly making sure the labeling was correct. Tense times it was then. Eventually there were so many people at the plant we all had trouble just working around each other. It was like a three ring circus. New product made and sent out for testing. Testing miners back at the plant to be shipped out. Miners sent out being shipped backed to be replaced and some not even opened then sent out to new people. Some of them the parts were taken off and used on other miners and the process started all over again.

Around March or early April a whole bunch of miners came back to the plant from some hosting company in KC probably because they were replaced with the upgraded models we were making. It makes perfect sense to me to replace 65nm miners with new 65nm miners now that it was explained what was REALLY produced back in February. Roll Eyes

Statements like this make me think more and more you are either more clueless than Bick or you never worked there. There were only 2 types of units that came back from hosting... RMAs and Units customers no longer wanted hosted and were sent in to be shipped out the them. Bick's dumb enough to believe that equipment that is still earning more than the cost of electricity to run them would be returned to be scrapped. Then of course there's this gem:

I concur that the miners were probably only tested for a few hours at their other facility (come to think of it it might have been at butterfly labs dedicated hosting companies). We put them in vans. Several days later the miners arrive at the testing facility. They are tested for a couple of hours. Then they are put back in the vans and delivered back to the plant arriving several days later. Reason? The traffic is terrible in KC. Oh My!

My first thought reading this was a Wizard of Oz reference... "I don't think we're in Kansas anymore Toto" and "Lions and tigers and bears OH MY!". But wow, even the people in customer service aren't this clueless. Off-site testing? Bwahahahahaha. Your lies are getting more and more ludicrous, pretty soon you will earn that scammer tag you thought they gave you...

How will I get a scammer tag? I read and commented on some guy here who even had a hard time paying for a scammer tag. Do they really give scammer tags to people on this forum for those trying to help but not to those who work shill for a company? And why are you helping butterfly labs so much especially since you know so much more than me and can easily help the other bitcoin guys here?

I have helped more with the three days that I have been here with only 40 posts then you have with being here almost a year with your 1331 posts. 6 more posts and you would be elite status. 1 more post my me and I get a 10% discount at some restaurant located somewhere in the galaxy.

As that Nibbknot called me a liar in another thread I withdraw my support for his story. You meany you.
