Did any of you receive 1a 13Th miner instead of 13.5 for march batch?
one of the S9s is running at 600 frequency instead of 620sh - 630sh and averaging at 13040

Are you comparing april 2017 and march 2018 batch ?

Looks like my order of 2 s9s has shipped a week early.  Was supposed to be March 11-20.  Nice!

I received my PSU last week for March 11-20 shipment, but the S9 (same shipping date) has no news at all.

What the...  

Same here, received the PSU but not the S9 from the same order.
Mine is the 21-31 march batch so I wasn't really expecting anything.
I got an email from Bitmain on 6th March saying it had shipped and it arrived less than 2 hours later so their mails must be delayed going out as it was 4 days in transit before I got the mail.

Getting an S9 is really tempting as far as being a miner is concern. But still consider the operational cost . If electricity is cheap at your location then go for it otherwise it is really hard to attain ROI.

Where you live? I think i live in one of the expensive electricity city in the world and still my ROI is less than year that doesn't sound bad to me because there is no business to give ROI in 1 year or less (Not Talking about ICO or holding Coins) any type of business.

Yea, depending on where you live, it ROI can be had for less than a year. Some people want a faster ROI though.

Dude, ROI in less than a year is not guaranteed. U dont understand that difficulty increases as time passes by and new stronger machines may come out later to make yours obsolete. That is the bet. That is why ROI needs to be short. Difficulty does not remain the same throughout. It increases faster than bitcoin price.

my order of 1xS9 from Bitmain has arrived in SG custom, since the 8th of March.

But the UPS tracking show that it is being held at SG custom, thats 8th, 9th, 10th, and today, total 4 days already.

Has anyone here has experience this when you recvd your miner?

Can advise whats the next course of action I can take, to expedite this process?

FYI, I've already called UPS and they said cannot advise why, and how. I'm like WTF...  Huh

Or you have the same problem as me: I sent 26 ordered AntminerS9 around the world


Warning Bitmain products ANTMINER S9  are no longer allowed to be exported to some of the EU countries.

One such country is Estonia.

The Estonian customs suspects Bitmain's production  to a false CE marking.

They want  for several months from Bitmain Rohrs certificate, which is required by the EU directive and is one part in which the CE mark is issued.

Guidance to RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU - Gov.uk

Miners already ordered can only be sent from Estonia to outside the EU.

Here are all the certification documents for the S9: https://support.bitmain.com/hc/en-us/articles/224442167-Certificate-of-Conformity-for-S9

Are you saying that the Estonian customs do not accept those documents?  

[latoxine34]

hi guys,

after a little fear yesterday due to a fan that stoped working after a reboot, I wonder if some parts are " necessary" to have in stock when you have few S9.  ( I have mine since only 2 month )

Like one fan or two, a control board, a spare psu ?

thank you.

[Rufy92]
