When will be buying possible?

[rgzen]

wooow
looks like the machine has increased it sale price... from 88 BTC, nearly $ 5000, without psu!!

EDIT: The site has come back to under construction state... seems the info was not final

I did not get the device on the order 200000846
can still support even answer here?
When waiting for a parcel?

[thorvald]

The hub was changed and the unit worked for 5 min 
The unit restarted without notice severeal times (the unit was on a ups 3000kva) interval >30s-5min<
It restarted even if the cgminer was stoped
The Ac is set to 16 C  (input senzor temp =14 C output max 41)
i`ve changed one power supply  with the only one i had 1200 quadro antec (had to do some modifications )
firmware 225  (tried also  320 but the cgminer will not start)
added 2 fans at the output temp constant 39
difficulty set to >64

luck factor -50%   :

[thorvald]

had 2 old tickets with no  answer 

so i didn`t open a new one

it seems that it was a defective hub and  power supply   

1h+ with no reset

Got tracking from DHL (I asked via e-mail if there's something for me), order number close to 400 is in DHL premesis in HG. In couple of days it should be in Estonia, hope to get it from customs before weekend.

Can't hide the exitement

Well... my avalon is still in HG, little checking revealed that sending papers have been prepared but unit has not been given to DHL yet...

I can confirm that my order 2000007xx is on the way. I emailed DHL and they informed me, that they got package information but not the package itself. I think its at the carrier to Hong Kong.

The important is i have a tracking number! My order must be one of the last of batch #1 because i ordered in november when there were 5 avalons in shop. So batch #1 should be fully shipped as bitsyncom said.

I hope, i will get it in a week.

Thanks Team Avalon!

Sigh!

No news about my order 2000003xx, paid october 3rd, DHL has no info about it and cannot fully search for it without tracking, no mail from BitSyncom/Avalon team telling me it was sent.

Can a kind soul take measurements of the unit ? (height, width, depth) It's not yet on the Wiki.

Thanks

Well, on Tuesday I got a call from DHL saying that a package is underway for me and if all goes well with customs I'll have it today (on thursday).

So I called them back today and asked for a status update. The lady on the other end searched for a bit but told me there's no package for me in their system whatsoever. This is strange, anyone have any explanation for this?

Every time I call them, here in Italy, they tell me that without tracking number their search is not conclusive.

One operator refused at first to do the search saying that I could be trying to access private informations.

Always from italy, i was once able to block a package at the deposit using only the destination address. It widely depends on who you talk with, i suppose. Expecislly since that the Italian dhl phone number costs a lot to dial.

Well, I see then. I'll try again later and give them the delivery address too. It's unpleasant that I have no tracking numbers yet, it would've made everything much easier.
