regarding .10, I will follow the expected coupon distribution, per manufacturers parameters.  Once it is available, those eligible will be notified with redeeming instructions.  ;D

.55 per device includes shipping.  Shipping out to you Monday 07/29/2013.
International shipping add 1.17 btc per order.
All orders placed as of 9:40 AM (payment received) are shipping out Monday, today see my note on this thread as to how many are left
New orders will ship out Wednesday/Thursday or Friday at the latest.

working on labels... Plenty of stock available to ship your order on Monday

I am 4 miles from a MAJOR DHL hub that receives these orders from China.  My delivery times are the best.  packages sent to me by ASICMiner are in my hand the same day they enter US.  They do not take an extra day or two to travel the country to get to me.  It takes me 11 minutes to drive to DHL when necessary.   My location is in a major metropolitan area next to a LARGE international airport that is a hub for shipping for all delivery companies.  This gives me access to DHL, FedEx (also just 4 miles away, open till 9 PM for next day shipping).  I have access to several Post Offices around me.  I can ship USPS till 7 PM.  I ship to you the same day I receive my delivery.  Simply put, I am in the best position geographically and logistically to receive an order and to get it out to you ASAP.  Period.

Status updates:
2013-07-27: #15 setup
2013-07-27: don't have enough funds to order?  Consider using www.bitinstant.com  to fund via money gram deposit directly to your (NOT mine!!!) bitcoin address.  bitcoins are sent to you as soon as that cash is deposited at your local wallmart, cvs, jewel etc...
2013-07-27: HOW TO SIGN A MESSAGE TO ME (YOUR SHIPPING INFO): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=195647.msg2291965#msg2291965 Please NOTE: the above example is NOT the same as sending a signed message with your transaction. If you are new to this (aka noob), please read this so that you understand what to do.  This is the single most problematic step in the ordering process.  Here's how to sign a message with a blockchain.info wallet: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=180068.0
2013-07-27: This group is now open to international orders.  It is limited to those countries where FedEx can deliver.  I charge an additional 1.17 btc for the first pound of weight to ship internationally.  the minimum weight I can specify with FedEx is 1 pound.  It takes a hell of alot of these units to weigh 1 pound.  I reserve the right to switch carriers if I can not use FedEx to your location.  for international only: please include your phone number that will go on the fedex shipping label

Common Questions:
When will I receive my order? Answer: I ship out on Monday.  Once I run out of stock, will make an announcement here and will take back-orders.

Folks and miners,

As announced in the Block Erupter USB Sales (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217104.0) thread, I want to support the ordering of Block Erupter USBs

Next Steps:
Collect orders for ASICMiner Block Erupter USBs.

Please Note:
Only send payments from an address you control (i.e. you can sign with it). If you send from MtGox or other exchanges, you risk loosing your funds since you can't prove you sent them. Please send from a wallet you can sign a message with.  You will send your shipping address via this method.

Policy update:
Refunds: Your orders are binding after your funds have been used to pay for an order.  Before that (while coins are piling up for the next batch), you can ask for a refund and will get it paid back in full. Understand that after you get refunded, I will not accept future orders from you.

Product Description:

    payment accepted is Bitcoin ONLY.
    Each one mines at more than 330MH/s, powered only by the USB port.
    It serves as a replacement of GPUs for mining hobbyists.
    Your GPUs could be freed from calculating hashes and resume rendering for you.
    It is also a perfect gift for getting people to learn about Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining.
    The Sapphire Batch:
    This is the first batch under production in quantity.
    Color of PCB changed to blue
    Adding a LED which blinks when a share is found
    Fixing the cgminer compatibility problem
    Reducing the heat generated and the current to <500mA
http://i42.tinypic.com/bhx7wo.jpg

Pricing:

.55 per unit, shipping included.
Total for your order is C = .55 * N (where N is the number of units you wish to purchase)
You can upgrade to USPS Express or FedEx.  you need to contact me for a quote based on the # of miners you wish to have shipped (weight dependent).

Domestic Insurance:
included
 
Note, local pickup is no longer available for orders less than 50 units.

Ordering:

There is one common payment address: 1M6y4YhXH47htCCUvSbWn1FJnA6DShtvFW

To buy:

pick the number of ASICMiner Block Erupter USBs to order: N.
send the appropriate amount C based on Pricing paragraph above.

post your order in the following format: forum_nick; N; C; sending_address;
ensure the sending address is under your control, so you can sign with it in case of disputes

Shipment:
The USB miners will be shipped to you within 1 day of me receiving them.

Communication:
I live in Chicago (CST time zone: UTC/GMT -5 hours) and have a day-job that allows me ample time to devote to this endeavor. I do sleep at night, so if I don't answer at night, please be patient.  I'm pretty open and transperant with info.  I post it as soon as I have it, I do not withhold from anyone.  Please respect everyone's time.

Cheers,

Canary

Received a few PMs about USB hubs, here's a good thread on it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=253749.0

That's it!!!

Looking at your new price I can only infer that the rumors about a price drop and 0.1 BTC for prior customers were true.

Can you confirm?

When will this group buy close. Shipping out from China on Monday?

Yeah... Now we are past the point of rumors if this pricing is being offered. Someone has to speak up. :/

these ship out to YOU on Monday from me, so you can enjoy bitcoin production out of them right away without waiting.

Hey Canary - how are you managing to sell these for 0.55 ?

BTCGUILD made this announcement:

Since all other outlets are announcing this even though it was not supposed to happen until August 1, yes, USB Block Erupters are having a price cut!

USB Block Erupters are now on sale at 0.60 BTC per device (free shipping to US). A huge number of units are en route, which will clear the backorder, and leave roughly 1,000 units available for next day shipping by August 1.

If you ordered an Erupter at 1 BTC, all is not lost yet. A coupon program is being initiated by ASICMINER and distributed by BTC Guild. 30% of the units sold at 1 BTC will be eligible to purchase a 2nd unit for 0.10 BTC (+0.05 Shipping/Handling). The exact method of coupon distribution will be announced when coupon units arrive, which should be around August 5th.

So, I'm selling at .55 btc.  I'm shipping to you on Monday.  ;D

Sorry man - I still don't understand how you can sell them for 0.55 when BTC Guild state 0.6 per unit - what gives here?

Competition. Canary probably has a ton of 0.1 BTC promo USB miners ordered and can afford to sell them below retail.

regarding .10, I will follow the expected coupon distribution, per manufacturers parameters.  Once it is available, those eligible will be notified with redeeming instructions.  ;D

you got it.  yours is order #3

u forget canary has over 1000+ sales he gets reseller discount... btcguild was selling at 1.05 while canary was selling at .94 GB #14


in for 10 cuz its in hand...payment sent

You can also purchase through Eligius mining pool here: http://eligius.st/~gateway/products/block-erupter-sapphire and receive an Eligius branded Eruptor.

Ship from USA or from china?

I ship from USA

Bitcoiner49er; 10; 5.5; 17sYSprh8QbWXat1vnYoyR7kuindCcpj23

Why does it say minimum 50?

there is no minimum.  sorry about that. fixed!

Ship from USA or china?

You might want to remove the bitinstant reference.  It looks like they are still regrouping.

Are you going to place a timer up?  I'll be in for a few probably.

Very Nice Price :)

but International Price expensive.

"Watch"

I'd have been down for this, but that shipping is so expensive!

i purchased this USB powered hub  http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0051PGX2I/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

 will it be powerful enough to run 10 at once?

It has 12  USB ports

i don't think so, there is a usb hub review thread on here somewhere ill try and dig it up for ya.

Thank you

Hi ordered 10 pcs

energiel; 10;6.67; 1M6y4YhXH47htCCUvSbWn1FJnA6DShtvFW

I use that one to power 10. Works good if you modify it and solder a molex directly to it and run it off of an ATX power supply.

You have to bypass some parts inside it too.  Stable for over a month now. ;D

I would like 14 please with shipping to the UK.

Moving the money around now and will send asap.

Many thanks for this!

I'm in for 10, but my Coinbase transaction doesn't clear until Tuesday morning.  I can't wait until I'm cleared on Coinbase for the instant transactions!  I started that purchase well before this group buy, and new price, was announced.

This purchase will put me at a total of 18 erupters (Group Buy #13 & #15).  If/when the 0.1BTC/erupter sale is formally announced, would I be qualified for an additional 18 for 1.8BTC?

If this group buy is still alive on Tuesday morning, I'll order.

saadirt

To be clear is it only the erupters that were bought at 1BTC that are going to be eligible for the discount?

some posters love to count all the "bank" Canary is gonna make... LOL sorry to tell you I am not making all that "bank", but I've created jobs and pay people to help me run this.  THere are alot of people without jobs out there who are experienced.

that's how I can get 2000 miners out in a day...  ;D

I created a business out of this... so has BTCGuild recently and Eligius (although Eligius'es interest is not monetary)...

I'm located 10-13 minutes driving from a MAJOR DHL hub.  I receive International shipments in hand the SAME day they enter USA.  I do not watch them travel 2-3 days across the country to get to me.  I'm 5 miles from a MAJOR FedEx hub that's open till 9 PM.  I see them every day :)

I'm located within a dozen Post Offices around me and can get whatever supplies and shipping I need done ASAP.

And waay back in a day, I used to work for a big computer parts reseller in their main wherehouse making sure orders got out ASAP and correctly.  so a little experience with distribution helps me too...

But I don't mean to get my head high in the clouds either... things can go wrong and I do my best to quickly fix them ASAP without letting it screw up the operations...

And I won't tell you other secrets  ;D

I've been thinking of getting a few of this device.  Though I've been mining for a year now, I've been relying on GUIMiner to run my GPUs (which have worked well for me) just because I'm CLI-challenged and dread the thought of it (cgiminer, bfgminer, etc.).  Is there an instruction or tutorial somewhere on how to setup these babies that I can peruse beforehand and see if I'm up to the challenge?  :)

bfgminer is super easy.  so is cgminer

run "bfgminer.exe -G -S all" that's it... -G is to ignore GPUs if you wish to run on the same box and keep using GUIminer for GPUs.
see this page here: http://eligius.st/~gateway/products/block-erupter-sapphire
before running bfgminer, install the driver listed on the above link

Got a few PMs about hubs, here's a good thread on it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=253749.0
I try to test different hubs too, as time permits.
Right now I'd go with Juiced, but read the comments about it, you need just a tiny more airflow on it due to spacing.  it's all on that thread.

I've decided to try these two:
Anker 9port +1 charging (maybe 9 devices and 1 fan?), with 5A power supply:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005NGQWL2

And an AiTech 10port, with 4A power supply:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009NESU4M

I'm also finally going to go for a RPi.  So will be testing 4 diff. 10 port hubs on it.  (Roswill, the old Anker (which I hear works), the new Anker, and the AiTech).

Feedback from anyone that's tried any of these is appreciated!

Thanks, man.  Working on the order right now.

AiTech 10 port case looks similar/identical to Juiced hub, different name only (branding)?

once you get AiTech going, please post a review on the USB HUB thread!

Since your using a RPi try to stay clear of raspberian.  It has a wonky install of libusb that has been causing problems.  Arch Linux has been verified as working.

Nice, great price!

I remember nervously buying my first Erupter at over 2.2 BTC *each*... wow, times have changed!

visdude; 1; 0.55; 1AjQVZFmFRnwzomJPcAHBZhZoNUxPgTAqG

I bought the Juiced 10-port from Amazon and suggest getting something else.  It'll run 8 erupters but when you plug in a 9th it starts to lose contact with one, then another, then another and the only way to fix that is either restart cgminer or unplug/replug the miner.  The Anker's extra amp makes a big difference.

Adding insult to injury my Raspberry Pi can't see this hub at all, so I think I'm going to order the Anker from Amazon and return this one.

add 8 more, now

about 250 miners left as of now to make it into Monday's shipping

friedcat shipped another large batch to me today as well.

everyone who has sent payment so far is in Monday's batch

I use Raspbian and it's been 100% rock solid, not sure where this rumour is from, but im on the latest verson too.

Not a rumor, Kano from cgminer is collecting data on it now if you want to help out an participate;-

transferred from coinbase came in!


  note the transfer is hung up.


 coin base sent the coins  I transferred  to my wallet and they have given me a pending  notice .
see below:

Why is my bitcoin transfer "Pending"?
Last Updated: May 15, 2013 07:04PM PDT
Bitcoin transactions show up in your account almost instantly (just a few seconds) but stay "Pending" for about one hour until they are verified by the network. Once a transaction is verified, it will show "Complete" in green.  This lets you know that the transaction cannot be reversed and that the funds can be withdrawn.

Due to a certain degree of randomness, sometimes pending transactions aren't picked up by the bitcoin blockchain as quickly as usual. The transaction should go through eventually - if it doesn't for 24 hours it will be automatically cancelled and you can re-initiate it.

If you're wondering about a pending bitcoin purchase, you can read more here.  


Never had this from them until today.  Has Any body ever had this happen?

this monday or next monday?

Yes, I've had a coinbase transaction pending between them and my wallet for 8 hours before, despite the "instant purchase".  No clue what happens, but eventually the tx shows up on the blockchain.

This Monday.  As in today.

DHL: Out for Delivery  ;D

Received payment for a private order of 230 units.

Sounds like it's going to be a busy monday...  ;D ;D So have you quit your day job? or are you, uh, *cough* sick today?

All available inventory to ship out today has depleted.
Any orders placed from now on, will ship out Wednesday/Thursday (this Friday at the latest).
I have another LARGE batch on it's way to me already.

I experienced issues with Block Erupter USB's on Raspbain. However I was successful at building and running cgminer from git (3.3.1) after dist-upgrading Raspbain from wheesy to jessie. Rock solid now and hot plugging works flawless. Thought you should know. Sorry for straying off topic Canary :P

oh nice thats good to know phrog bcouse i had issues too with cgminer 3.3.1 (very slow speeds and lags) now im using bfgminer instead.. maybe i will try upgrade system soon

got my 2 in today! thanks.  I ordered them at the high price so hopefully this coupon thing works out!

we keep making multiple runs to the post office  ;D

is this yours? plz send me a signed message with the first sending addy.

Rent a Uhaul!

Exoskeleton; 2; 1.1; 19B9nPJhtPWZkhjxPZ13yiECdMJSyDgHva

Im sending a PM and a signed message in the next 5 min. Hope Im not too late for your last run of the day.

When you get back from the Post Office again... your sig link points to #14.   :D

too risky to drive all packages at once... what if something happens? then no one gets shipments...  ;D

almost done with Post office...  then FedEx... I "may" have a few leftover, but won't know till later tonight.  will post about any available inventory.

Would like 10 more if you do.

That would be sweet if you could squeak my two units in today!

JayCoin; 38; 20.9; 1Ma48L9UfubiGFjhfri4Tqp25M4DXPeTuG

I never quite thought of it that way but losing 3000 sticks packed and ready to ship would suck   it would be 1650 btc. plus the shipping purchased for it.

At FedEx dropping off international orders. All but 1 FedEx went out. PM for the one went out. The rest will receive tracking numbers later.

All USPSes went out.  I think about 3 or 4 folks received a PM where there was an issue with transaction.  These will be resolved tonight still and head out in AM.

This was a crazy day!!  ;D

There are no extra units from today's delivery.

I will be receiving another large batch in 2-3 days from friedcat.

Excellent work Canary!  ;D

Received 2000 units and shipped them. All done in one day by Canary and elves! Wow! :)
Puts BFL to shame.  :D

Do we order on here Canary or are you starting a new thread?

Perhaps we could have a group buy to buy out BFL and put Canary in as a community Manager.  ;D

Canary needs to head over to BFL and work his magic...

you can order here, I'll transfer it over to the new group soon

CLOSED.

I received tracking info! You got my order shipped by 6:30PM when I paid you about 5PM. Now thats service! BFL and Avalon take note.

ASIC miner may have the highest prices, but having units in hand and a re-seller who ships within an hour of purchase is what counts to me these days. I know where my money is going from now on. Thanks Canary!  8)

I'm going to transfer a few orders from here to #16.
I will send a PM to just a handful of people.
Thanks!

Big thank you to Canary & team, and of course also Friedcat & team.

Received my international (Canada) order 5 minutes ago. Outstanding service!

Fantastic!! FedEx for international is the only way to go... you get what you pay for.

Received mine earlier today as well.
Canary delivers as usual (Fast!) :)

Thanks again!

Thanks.  Excellent service.

Big thanks Canary, i got mine around dawn this morning (UK) that's faster than my lurcher.

Wow, LIGHTNING FAST shipping!!

Always a class act to deal with.  The Erupters were put in the mail on Monday, and they showed up at my post office (California) on Wednesday, that's lightning fast!

They are now all happily installed, twinkling like little fireflies in the night!

The little Erupters are very elegantly packaged, they would make a great stocking stuffer.  QC sticker, cardboard box, thin plastic baggie, hard plastic case, foam inserts, then finally the miner itself, just waiting to be plugged in.  Even the size of the cardboard box seems carefully thought out, they divide evenly into the size of the most common USPS Priority Mail shipping box, making shipping really easy!  Nice!  Will definitely order again as funds permit.

Received my Package this morning!  Thanks!!   ;D

received my package today and hashing great

Thanks

So, I got my single BE from this buy to play around with and to learn on (ordered more in #16).  As stated above, I'm trying to run it in a box which is GPU mining via a stratum proxy (Slush's) using GUIMiner.  I installed the Silicon Labs driver and it does show up under "Devices and Printers".  I then created a .bat file within the bfgminer (v3.1.3-win64) folder and created a shortcut on the desktop.  However, when I run the .bat file, the console just pops up for a second and closes.  With me being extremely CLI-challenged, I'm sure I missed something somewhere.  Based on Canary's comment/advice above, this is what I concocted in the .bat file:

bfgminer -G -S all stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 -u workername -p workerpassword

So, where did I screw up?  :)

See http://eligius.st/~gateway/miners/bfgminer-recommended

I've been all over that page before even receiving my BE but didn't find a specific topic on how to run it.  Like I said, I did my studying and the script in that .bat file is what I came up with to the best of my ability as a CLI virgin.  Obviously I missed something.  Sending me to a wild goose chase to the same page I've been to doesn't really help.  If you specifically know what's wrong with my script, could you at least tell me how to correct it?  Thanks for chiming in anyway.

Hi, already get it !
Thanks for the fast shipment.

Got my BEs yesterday morning.  Thanks for the very fast service :)

If I pay extra for it, can I get Fedex next-day delivery in the US for my next order (maybe today)?
