For bank wire, I'm being asked for Burnin's address and province. Does anyone have this handy?
Thank you

Burnin, can we order and pay for a rig now and change the shipping address later? I'd like to set the shipping method to "Local Pickup" for the time being but would I be able to change it later to a physical address and then pay for the shipping at that time? When Zefir gets my chips (batch 2) I'll set the shipping address. The chips are already locked in to ship to you from Zefir. I've just placed an order and it went smoothly. In answer to my own question above: Yes, you can change the ship-to address after ordering. I've tried it and it works. I've noticed that the originally entered ship-to address still appears on the invoice though. As long as the shipping label printer gets the address from the order (not from the invoice) then all should be well. Thanks Burnin for your excellent work! [edit] I used Bitpay and it worked seamlessly. Order was marked "Paid in Full" as soon as payment hit the blockchain (0 confirmations) Exchange rate was comparable to Bitstamp rate. I did not change the country or shipping method so there was no effect on the euro amount. of the order. There is no provision to change the shipping method. [/edit] Where? I don't see it. On the order page there is no change of shipping address possible. And the address on "My Account" page, which you can edit, it is just for future orders, since it says "The following addresses will be used on the checkout page by default." Thanks for pointing that out. In my happy 'aha' moment I entirely missed that. I will have to PM Burniin on how to get the ship-to address changed on my order.

Unbelievable, that one guy did this great project on his own.

TerraHash (another DIY project) had real problems with PayPal, so I would avoid it even it is most convenient for me to use it. Either way being seller or buyer I would avoid it or this might happen. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=238148.0TerraHash Order Queue and Info - Updated 6/19 9:26PM PST. - Latest News June 19th - TerraHash's PayPal account is on hold due to large influx of funds yesterday.
Now when they investigate it will be bye bye PayPal.

I find it funny how people are using Paypal to pay for mining equipment when the high taxes of Paypal and similar services are one of the reasons for the creation of the crypto currencies in the first place

Just curious for those who have a pending direct bank transfer for their orders, what does your order status say?
Mine says "Order status: on-hold.", but I’m not sure if that just means that it is pending payment or if there’s something else amiss.

Yes, that's what it means I had the same question in an email and this is burnin's answer: Once the payment is in my account i update the order status to processing.

Explanation of order statuses: Pending – Order received On-Hold – Awaiting payment Processing – Payment received Completed – Order fulfilled and complete Failed – Payment failed or was declined (unpaid)

You see it is like this. Someone's gotta do it. And there is gonna be people who just go and do it. But there will be one or two guys, that just do it a bit more. Think about it. I heard Burnin just graduated from University some time ago. With this project, with this success, he can basically fund whatever company he wants, make very good money, maybe even buy a house. This is the one project that we all dream of. The project where you sit down, kill yourself after uni, ignore social life, ignore everything else, create this hyperfocus on something and just do it. And then, then you get it done and it works. And you have done it, you have done it more than anyone else around you and you have not been arrogant about it, not talked about it a lot but instead, you have just done it. And it pays off. And it seems Burnin did it. He just did, and did it, and did it. (Credits go to Art Williams for this one )

Thanks for the clear tutorial for RPi - would have saved me a lot of time if I knew about it before! I will check out Arch but I've actually been using stock Raspian with my CM1s and have no problems at all. Unfortunately though due to this "unless you give us free hardware" policy I can no longer use cgminer with my CM1s so have had to switch camps to the BFGminer which remains open and cooperative with any hardware manufacturer. I understand that you want to test hardware directly but many people have offered to debug, provide you whatever info you need, and even provide remote access to systems with miners - yet it seems you actually just want free hardware If that's your commercial model, then I get it - just wish I knew upfront before buying into cgminer. CGMiner used to work like a dream, then they rewrote the USB stack and broke it (but is much more efficient for those it works for) - and now won't fix it because nobody gave kano a free CM1. Cautionary tale - other miners are available ;-)
