Any idea how many of these chips are expected to fail? I was thinking 5% failure rate, to be on the safe side, but I really have no idea... Would anyone less clueless than me on this please chime in?  (any experience from previous shipments?) |

(any experience from previous shipments?) These chips are a new offer but they are built into avalon miners. I didnt hear of problems with these miners but they are tested before shipping. So i cant tell if there is a failure rate. Friedcat from Asicminer said that his chips have practically no failure rate. Im not sure if its the same with avalon chips. But i would order some more just in case. They can brake for some reason while assembly and so on... |

Could you please confirm the expected levies/VAT at import? I'd rather not find afterwards I have another 25% to add on top.
Cheers.

19%. However, Avalon will likely put the notice in about costs, and since we do not know what they will declare... well.  |

I hope they do put acceptable declaration on/inside the package. Otherwise with German customs it could create some trouble to clear up things and get the chips released.
Maybe Sebastian can check upfront with Bitsyncom & customs about this subject ?
As mentioned by Schrankwand, I also would expect to pay an additional 19% VAT...

Nothing i can do here. I already asked bitsyncom but no answer. Probably because they wrote they wont give any support for the chips. Even with 19% on top this will be worth it, im sure. Im confident avalon will move as always. |

Thanks Sebastian. Be nice to the Zoll (customs) guys when the chips arrive, so that they hand'em over ;-)
Normally I would try not to pay the high EU VAT, but the group buy in the US has somewhat stalled currently,
so I think I will move in here....

Free BTC for him I'm sure. You don't have to re-invoice, just accept the package in case there is a lot of VAT (he'll get it back anyway). Cheers. |
