Over a week now since I placed my order and still no communication.

Think I'm going to make a complaint to their payment processor, hopefully they'll put their account on hold. At least then they can't take any more money from consumers.

Has anyone heard anything from Hashra or had a delivery recently?

I have not gotten any replies from Hashra/Simon yet, since 27/6/2014. However I have spoken to a few buyers who complained in this thread earlier https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=659732.20

Most of them got their units. Still, I need a reply from Simon regarding my order.

Thanks for the link to the other thread. Wish I'd seen that before I ordered. But as my first order went OK I'd let my guard down. Thoroughly disappointed.

why are you guys buying these asic's? with over 4 month ROI if the diff rate didn't change...you really think this is a good deal? oh and that is with free power n pool...just don't get it

I mentioned it earlier and elsewhere but it's not just the miner that will get you the money back it's what you do with what you mine that will. You need to trade what you mine on the exchanges to see good returns which is much work in itself. There are scores of casualties of those who though they could just buy a rig and get easy money which of course does not exist.

That's just stupid. If you can successfully make money trading, why not just buy the coins you are going to trade? Why buy a machine that by your own admission costs more than the coins it mines?

I don't know how you can call it stupid if you don't understand it. But to give more information mining gives a regular stream of coins to trade with and it's used in conjunction with trading and not relied on by itself. It's not going to shovel money at you if that's what you thinking it's still a lot of work.

Stop pretending you have some secret formula. If you could purchase 10 coins, or purchase a machine for the same price that mines 5 coins, you made a stupid decision. What happens to the coins afterwards doesn't change that.

Secret formula? When did I say I ever had a secret formula? Hard work is hard there is no secret formula. I wish there were but there isn't. You keep throwing around the word "stupid" as if it makes your point valid. If you have had success in your way then that's good but don't sit there and try to tear down others because you don't agree. Directly buying is merely one of many ways of investing in alt currency as is mining.

Perhaps we can continue this in a more constructive manner if you tell us more of your strategy in directly buying coins as opposed to mining them, yes?
