I am glad that  user 'mutex' was quick enough to join the party at the last moment.

ragingazn628,

Please, combine our ('hardlock' + 'mutex' ) orders to be delivered to the same address (the address  pointed by 'mutex').

Thank you!

yes I can confirm but please send me your info via that email too for verification purposes etc.

Alright guys. I will be start taking your individual shipping addresses for this order. We will do it email style so it will be much easier for me to keep track. Depending where you are located in the world I will do my best to give you an estimate for the shipping based on how many chips you bought. Also remember how much BTC you contributed to the group and how fast you sent the BTC to escrow will be weighted in when I do shipping etc. That is why I am making a list now.

Without further a due please email the following to avalonasics@gmail.com

*Note for Address please include as much detail as possible and make it accurate as much as possible.

So we email you with our shipping information, but are we going to have the PCB option?

PCB is a possibility. Nothing concrete right now.

To put it in words. Burnin's project is much ahead of us right now

Avalon will release their sources though.

Let's clarify the fees for individual shipping and what you guys will be responsible for:

Everyone is responsible for the following:

• Import Customs Fees (divided among all 79 investors will be based on how many chips you bought)
• Shipping will be via UPS (closest to me - not sure if cheapest, can be changed based on interest of the group) For US people we can use USPS - cheap/fast/secured
• Shipping Costs to your location. For this I can do COD (Cash On Delivery - you pay the shipping price when the item gets to you)
• Shipping Supplies (I will buy in bulk divided among all 79 investors) - We are not sure how big the chips are, how will Avalon ship 10,000 chips?
• I will declare the customs fees when we ship next to nothing so you don't have to pay high import fees for your country.
• Your shipment will be weighted on how much BTC you have contributed and when you sent the BTC.

Just to clarify, we're dividing customs fees by INVESTORS and not by chips? So a guy who ordered 20 chips is going to pay 1/79th of the customs, while a guy who ordered 1000 chips also pays 1/79th?

Shouldn't it be that you pay a percentage of the customs fees, based on what percentage of the order belongs to you? Customs on $100,000+ worth of chips is gonna be steep. For somebody who ordered maybe 10 chips, their customs bill could end up being more than their chips cost!

Ok sounds like a plan. You're right but I read:

https://help.cbp.gov/app/answers/detail/a_id/810/~/other-taxes-or-fees-required-to-import-goods-into-the-u.s.,-other-than-duty

Max is $485? Can someone verify this?

But does Avalon declare their value for $100k? Just because they're selling the chips for $100k+ doesn't mean it's worth $100k in MATERIAL no?

I know I sold my Mars II for about $3000 and I only declared $1000

[wrenchmonkey]

That's the user fee. That doesn't include the actual tariff. I've never imported raw chips, so I don't know what the duty rate is on those, but I've imported other stuff, and the user fee is the 'cheap' part. 

Depending on how it's classified, there might actually not be any tariff at all. Like I said, I don't have experience importing raw chips (short of ordering a few dozen on Ebay), so I have no idea what the $$$ amount will be at the end.

I agree, the portion of fees to be paid by each one shall be proportional to the number of chips ordered.
The formula to calculate it is easy: (Total Fees)*(chips ordered)/10,000

Otherwise it would be unfair.

When you reorganized the spreadsheet, overpayment information was not reorganized with paid amount.  The overpayments were originally intended for shipping but it might be best to return them now since you plan to do most shipping COD (cash on delivery).  Can you revert the overpayment information to the correct line for each person who overpaid? Thanks!
