It seemed to take ages if you asked me, 5 days... It did have a weekend included but I was hoping for much faster. Not much I can do about it though.
That's not actually too bad, I always allow 7-10 calendar days when buying stuff on eBay from HK to get to me here in Adelaide.

Not yet, DHL says Forwarded for delivery for the first 50 so it must be any time now. The second lot says Departed Facility in SINGAPOE - SINGAPORE so it is in the air somewhere over the pacific. Exciting stuff! Neil

Yes, it really is exciting. Can't wait to get my hands on my first real ASICs. I have my little miner all set up and ready to go.

Morning, I have no problem with this, can I ask both of you to drop me an email at neil@mineforeman.co.nz with the details and I will get it done. Neil Thanks Neil. I will send you the new delivery address when I get it on Friday. I will reply to the e-mail I received from your ordering system and will sign a message using the address I paid from. I cannot send you emails (?) < neil@mineforeman.co.nz>: Host or domain name not found. Name service error for name=mineforeman.co.nz type=A: Host not found

Are you going to email people or update the order status page when you ship each order out?

I will fire them an email telling them to look at their order status page and the details will be there. Both packages now say Auckland by the way and I am making calls to find out exactly where and when I can get ahold of them. Neil

After driving half way across the country (not really, only about 50k) I tracked down the first package and the first 50 have arrived! ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fmineforeman.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2013%2F06%2FFirst50s.jpg&t=665&c=JU17yLVPML_Srg) As you can see I have arranged them all spitting on top of the sticky labels of their owners ready for me to stick in boxes (not in camera shot). The second lot is still in Auckland with customs. Neil

Second shipment just passed customs (with the required payments) so hopefully that will be here tomorrow. It got held up a bit, must be something to do with the kilo of crack that friedcat sent me (jk).
I am leaving work today at 2pm (it is 10:30 am here now) to finish getting shipment one on its way.

First 50 are out the door (51 actually, I shipped the warranty one).
Now I am going to sit down and watch the news.
I will update the satoshimine site and send out emails when I get the energy. :p
