Seemed from the start that they are very honest company.

No. Their behavior was arrogant and suspicious from the very first day, and many pointed that out.

By the way. I can't help blaming the victims here a little.. Remember, the sole purpose of a company is to make money. If they sell you miner hardware for less than it'll make in reasonable time, they have failed as a company.

You've failed as a rational human being if you really believe that. I guess Alchip failed as a company too since it sold the chips to KNC for less than the chips would mine?
Any company that continues to do "business" your way will surely fail. The main purpose of a company is to fulfill a need.

Here is Alchip's purpose:

Alchip Technologies is dedicated to rapid delivery of cutting-edge ASIC solutions to our customers. We have a proven track record of first silicon successes at the 130nm, 90nm, and 65nm nodes. Our total engineering and business solution strategy ensures that our customers receive quality SoC product solutions on-time or ahead of schedule. Our dedicated teams of engineering, logistic, and business professionals understand and address to our customers' needs. Alchip is the trusted silicon partner for implementing and delivering SoCs so that our clients can focus on what they do best.

Here is Southwest Airline's purpose:

To connect People to what's important in their lives through friendly, reliable, and low-cost air travel.

Imagine how long they would be around if they sold you a seat on a flight going to Las Vegas from New York and then they delayed the flight by a couple of weeks, it cost 3 times more than any other airline's seat when you finally did get on the flight and it took you to Miami instead... they would fail.
