It's all about trust IMO. Since we all know you can deliver a quality product in time, it's not a problem for me. If it was 6 month pre-order that would different. 2 weeks it's no big deal, if the trust is there. We all know that the money will be in good hands and is needed for the good of the project.

Talked with Valkir during the weekend. (Very cool guy btw)

I might be interested to join you guys if you can settled a deal. (SP50 would be great)

I will be following the thread.

Got my two stick from Valkir yesturday (Yeahhhhhhh)

My friend and I would be joining the party !!!

Got my two sticks ! Thanks for this project ! Now the fun starts ;-)

Got my 2 sticks from Valkir !

Thanks !

Edit: left you a feedback ;-)

WoW,

So I tough my nightmare was done when I lost 1 day for the custom in China ... Guess What ... Took 1 day in the US and it's taking 1 more day in the Canada.

Did they send me drugs instead of miners ?

I never see that before... either it's bad luck, DHL sucks or i'm been flag by my government ...

DHL "Express" yeah right ...

yeah something is not right as the fees should be like 5%-10% ? It's like 2.5 times what it should be.

Make sure they did use the right category of custom fees for the package.

Sent me your address in a PM and I will come get them tomorrow ! (Or when you're available)

thanks

Good news, my units just got clear from the custom !

Bad news spondoolies just release an SP50.

It's huge beast.  0,14w/gh

Thy said they would put someone from DHL china on this and I gave them my phone.
She told me it was probably some document missing ...

I also warned Bitmain about it.

I guess i'm screwed from for a few days ... already lost a day on this...

Yeah already contacted Bitmain (email) and DHL (phone)

Spoon was using DHL, never had an issue :/

Sucksssss

Used DHL and mine is at  

5   Clearance event   SHENZHEN - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC   02:47


Details =>  Clearance is pending as the shipment will be cleared by the importer's designated external Broker.

Should I contact Bitmain ?

EDIT1: Apparently they didn't properly fill all the documents .... hope this is not going to take forever to fix ....
EDIT2: No ones in the same boat ?.
EDIT3: I'm really pissed off ...

I will take +2,01% to +2,25%

Thanks Phil

You'll received an email and the proper instruction to pay the fees (Either Paypal or BTC).

Don't worry if you didn't received it yet, it should arrived in the next few days,

One word : Risk

Congrats Tss !
