I remember preordering mine, and then waiting and waiting... I eventually received my BFL unit after the difficulty and price made it impossible to make a profit mining BTC with it. I sold it to some guy on Craigslist and recouped some of my loss a few months later. I’m pretty sure BFL was using my ASIC and its other customer’s units to mine for itself instead of shipping them out to customers as promised.

I actually owned quite a few ASICS over the years. My favorite was the Ant Miner S1.
