Hey Guys!!
They still undermine your U$Dollar$ !!and make dollars has never bored no one !!  Wink Cool Tongue
But we still mine our bitcoin, and Bitmaintech is probably the biggest (and serious) ASIC manufacturer on marketplace.
New products are aimed at new customers (on the first time), old sensitive customer pay another "price" built on patience and expectation of a good deal.
No price tag question will be posed with chinese manufacturer ,Spondoo probably have superior quality product but no "Gartner Magic Quadrant" will needed to know how wins the cost challenge.
Today's open RMA request by eighteen (days) S3+B11, and no ask on myself about the quality question, no other on more than ten little S3 brothers.
ASIC lifecycle caracteristics don't need to meet top quality requirement as unique eligible value add factor.
Shipping cost can do difference on small quantities and heavy weight parcel (no one read spec on S5 weight??), distance apart , if the next purchase will not be an "Ant"  , probably will be shipped from Israeli to the ancient and old Europe , and someone else will count my euro!!
