I am very interest to buy but with my current customs policy, better buy in the local market although its higher price but its certain than my shipment stuck in customs' gate

Where are you from ?

It's easy to avoid custom in EU.

Can you please elaborate " It's easy to avoid custom in EU. " - How did you do that? With ordering from Bitmain or ordering from some Friend that made miners look "faulty-used" so they marked it down as "used" ?

They are only accepting BCC as payment. Not many people mine that compared to BTC

Oh right I didn't realise that, wonder why that is? Suppose you can exchanged BTC for BCH though if you wanted to buy

Sorry for "spam"(its same reply as in other topic) But i think they changed policy of "ONLY BCC" for this batch ? http://prntscr.com/grjwzt

[stugots2]

Tried to buy one last night it was BCC only payment? WTF these people play so many games lol

Yea someone told me its "ONLY BCC" after you add it to cart and go to payment... It looks my screenshot is not valid.... They should change that instead of waiting to see that info after u added items into cart

[stugots2]

I bet they have a TON of unpaid orders!!

[tbonetony]

The latest batch sale appears to be only payable in BCC. I suspect BCC will expect a small hype soon.

before 15 days someone purchased S9, December patch of 14 TH hashrate and the payment methods were btc usd bcc ltc.
probably there are leftovers from 13,5  TH patches

i have a kind off topic question

does anyone knows, or better bitmain's forum account to reply, if bitmain accepts local pick up from any place, warehouse or something like that, in China?
a friend of mine is traveling in some cities in China and
i am interesting for a single piece, so it would be carried easily back home

taxes  and customs are increasing the price as hell

I don't think that this can be possible

I have simmilar problem with Customs in my country... They are efing braindead...

Policy goes like this ... Value of your product + shipment == Total value + 10%(of Total value) ... And and again 20% on top of all of that...

If i order D3+150$+ PSU 150$ shipment that would be 1800+ 10% = 1980+ 20%(396$) = 2376$ ... In the end i pay total Custom Tax of 576$ this is freaking insane

I'm considering starting mining for the first time and it looks like Antminer S9 is the way to go in that price range (other suggestions in $1000-$5000 range is welcome. $0.08 per kWh).

Is it safe to buy from Bitmain? If I pay for an order now, am I sure to get one from the november batch? Or am I risking that they suddenly are out of stock even after I pay?

I don't feel so good about paying so far in advance, with a currency that is charged immediately with no refund possibilities.

What do you think? Should I go for it?

They're flaky, take long to mine with the machines you've paid for actually deliver, but that's what you know beforehand. Although we can have a long discussion about the business ethics of Bitmain, their machines are relatively stable and therefor get sold. A lot.

I bought one from the 13.5th batch and paid in bcc, but because the payment took ages to confirm my order expired. now it shows paid/unshiped/expired.
should i be worried?
i contacted bitmain about it but no response so far...

[stugots2]

no that happened to me one and they fixed it, I called and according to her she said they look at the block chain to see when it was actually sent and if it was within the timeframe your good
