Shipping & Shipping Insurance

There are two shipping options:

#	Description
1,	Miners are shipped direct to you from the factory in China via UPS (you pay VAT on delivery).
2,	Miners are sent to me and I reship via royal mail's special delivery service (Includes your VAT  so I can deal with it for you and a re-shipping and handling fee).

* Every miner is shipped individually.

Payment list

user / quantity / item / status

interested mate, if the price is right :)

Depending on price maybe interested in one..

+1 depending on price!!

also interested (price dependent) have a few of these already.

put me down for 2 possibly 3 depending on price.

Thanks

I am interested but the price including delivery would have to be less than Sushi's

Outcast has to pay vat it won't end up being cheaper then sushi

Anyone that imports anything into the EU would also have to pay VAT and import duty. So in theory, if they order from me or sushi, their final bill should still end up being roughly around the same price, or maybe even slightly cheaper if we get a bulk order in...

Import duty, yes, that would be the same, are you registered for VAT?

I'm not registered for VAT, I'm not a registered company, so no. But it makes no difference, there will still be a 20% VAT charge when you import something from outside the EU.

You are right there is no difference as the Import Duty is Zero rated, both would have to pay VAT so they should end up being the same price. Yours could be slightly cheaper depending on how you can work out the shipping with Bitmain.

Not forgetting... if OutCast3k imports say... 100 ant miners in 1 go, he'll be able to negotiate a good price, pay import duty once, and as normal, pay VAT (like everyone would have to).

Better still, when you order one, it arrives to your door without having to piss around.

Having to pay the UPS man the VAT at the door is not too difficult, he even takes cards.

you wont need to. OC will pay the import duty when it's delivered to him. He'll then ship to you via special delivery.

+1 depending on price

Yep I understand that, all I am saying is that unless there is a reasonable price difference between OC and Sushi's I will stand at the door and pay the money.

When will you now the price?

+1.

Hopefully you have teamed up with an Agent in china as Bitmain is selling to locals in china for 1.82BTC

It is shame he does not ship worldwide at this price, that is why if you have friend in china or have TaoBao Agent you could be saving so much.

Hopefully you have good UK price.

For these machines to ROI anywhere near what the current price would need to be 2.75BTC at current rate.

Wish best luck Outcast :)  

OH! Interested.

I'm up for 2 units dependant on price

Hopefully within the next 24hours

Happy new year everyone!

Would people prefer to have the miners sent directly from the factory to their doorstep and they pay the VAT in GBP to UPS guy when it arrives, or would people prefer to pay me the extra VAT in Bitcoin and I take delivery and reship them via royal mail etc etc.

I personally think it makes most sense to have them sent direct to you guys, overall it'll be slightly cheaper for you, or should I give both options? - feedback quickly please!

Happy new year!

Best option for me would be lowest cost and quickest delivery which I assume paying UPS is the best of both  :)

We need the value of the two options

I'd rather have Royal Mail deliver - I work, so am not in the house during the day.  I work basically next door to the sorting office, so it's simple to pick up the parcels next day.

Same for me please
Royal Mail

UPS and pay the VAT at the door is fine with me but you could offer the option of both OC.

Royal Mail for me, I would prefer not to have additional monies to pay out, pay once and get the pain over with.

If we can have any option we want, I would prefer to pay by GBP rather than BTC, saves sending money to BitStamp first lol - I know this would not be ok with you OC :-(


Happy new year to you too

Royal Mail or collection for me please.

ups is not a good option for me as no one indoors most of the day

OK, it seems there is quite a mixture, so I will list both prices, for a direct delivery via UPS and a redelivery via Royal mail. Will put together a pricing structure for this and update the original post very shortly.

:) Nice

Waiting :D

I've update my original post with prices :)

To calculate the cost of your order please see: https://coinb.in/s1/

Sorry about the offsite calculator, but with all the shipping variables this made most sense.

Stock is available, so if everyone orders ASAP we can get them in record time!

Hi i think there is a problem with the calc because
if you select ship direct to me its 3 BTc
then add insurance its 3.25 Btc

but if you change it to post to you and you post it on  its   3.170 BTC
if you then add insurance it goes up to 4.207 BTC
why the BIG Jump ?

Hey,

Its my understanding that, when importing the package from China to the UK if you add insurance to the package, it will also be declared at the full value you paid for it, if you choose not to add insurance It gets sent from the factory priced substantially lower.

So, If you choose the insured option and choose for me to take delivery, I will have to pay your UPS handling fee and VAT bill on your behalf, before reshipping it via Royal mail special delivery - that is the reason it makes such a large jump.

*Edit* I have tweaked my calculator slightly, there will be a few extra bitcents saved now.

what is the estimated shipping date for these units?

If people hurry they will be shipped around the 6-7th of this month.

Hi
Ok I will do an order for 2 units tonight
I don't have access to my wallet at work

How many orders do you need to get them here for 6-7th ?   

I only have enough btc for 1 machine right now, will probably have more early next week.

Can you confirm that buying one now will result in immediate shipping. What is the ETA to the UK? What warranty do they have?  Is PSU included ?

it's been put on hold. And no PSU is supplied with them.
