I would like to purchase these but will not place an order until they are shipping.  I ordered a BFL Monarch and was lucky to get a refund 3 weeks before the FTC shut down BFL.  I feel lucky I just gave them a 6 Month no interest loan.  I will never preorder again.
As an aside WTF LTC nethash 2.25TH/s. Est next diff 73441 earlier.

**Edit that was the nethash Coinwarz was showing earlier.  Not sure it was accurate.  The estimated diff was from wemineltc.
