BFL is still way overpriced. Take that 230GH unit for example: $18.50/GH and 4.5W/GH. Compare with a 180GH Antminer at $12.60/GH and 2W/GH. And both are now a bad investment IMO, along with Bitfury unless they cut their prices almost in half. Paying more than $10/GH right now is a bad idea. (I count Bitfury as 38GH/card)

mid-feb? by that time $5/GH will be the going rate for machines, and these chips are only capable of ~2.5GH.

price dont look good for new year 2014 back to 999.00 usd for Hboard and 10 or more for 650.00 usd each hboard.

I had an H-card fail and have been trying to RMA it since Dec 15th.

On Dec 18th got this email:
Hi Alex,

I have received your RMA and I expect to be able to ship out your replacement this week. I will include a return label for your faulty unit. Thank you for doing business with us.

It didn't ship...

Asked again on Dec 26th...got this response:
Hi Alex,

I apologize for the continued delay, due to the holidays shipping has been interrupted, we expect to be able to ship your order soon. I will contact you as soon as it ships.

Best Regards,
Yvonne

This card has been down for nearly 2 difficulty periods.  There is no way to recover the lost revenue at this point.  I was going to order another full kit in January, but now I am going with Antminers.   Get your customer service together!!!!!

id be in for up to 50 or so

I would also take 100.

Prices haven't changed recently.  V1.2 are $675 and V2.2 are $700.

That's because Bitmain actually want your business, Bitfury and team do not. Solution is simple, buy Antminers.

Maybe because Antminers are a pain in the ass to run. I spent a day trying to get two to run on a machine that was running blue furys and gave up. After reading the forum a bit, i get the feeling that antminers want their own machine. I've got two sitting on a shelf doing nothing.
