The 30% deposit option will costs an extra 10% on top of the normal price. An $999 Elysium would cost $1098 but you are only required to deposit $329 to reserve your order and won't have to pay the remaining cost until your order is ready to be shipped.
Speaking of which for some reason my 100% deposit $999 Elysium cost $1,049.00 for my order.  Not sure why, since there was no shipping added. PSU most likely. If you would like to edit your order send us an email at contact@xcrowd.co.uk. |

Should be sent within 48-72 hours; we just need to get a green light from our verification vendor which will allow us to publish the expected final shipping period for our first batch of 500TH (date of last orders to be shipped). |

For 350W I'm sure whatever one you choose will be fine. US<>UK doesn't have customs issues with power supplies like China does, I assume? Speaking of which I assume the power supply will be 120V USA-compatible for those ordering from the States? |

So I guess that wall of dox kind of overshadowed my question so:
Also another thing I was thinking about...Is the price with bitcoin in escrow going to change at the end due to price fluctuation? Like what if btc rises to $200. Will we then release only a portion of the coins to you or what?
The escrow deposits sent will be kept at the same value regardless if it's in BTC or Fiat. However you would be able to send over less coins if you only deposited 30%. For example - you send over $329 in escrow deposits (30%) at the current BTC exchange rates that would amount to 2.65 BTC. If the BTC price rises to $200 per BTC when we request the full deposit just before dispatch then you would only have to send over another 3.35 BTC to cover the current total price of 8.2 BTC. Hope that makes sense. . You should not cap your price based on BTC, it should always be based on the US$, BTC fluctuates to much for comfort. Very Risky because Prices of BTC up and down anytime. If you accept and pays in fiat many of us would be more interested. Not only we have to pay the 10% extra for the deposit payment option but also the escrow fees of 1%. Why would you need to add in the 10% and why not you pay the 1% or so escrow fees. When we cancel are we liable to pay the 1% Fee or not needed? |

Meg please do some research before posting useless comments. At this point I feel like you are a troll.
Xcrowd has all units priced in usd and was simply showing me an example.

I don't recall even seeing it discussed on the web site that paying in BTC was an option, although I assume so. My plan was to pay the escrow agent in Fiat. Xcrowd can confirm this is allowed, hopefully. (Would escrow.com even allow escrow payments in BTC?) |

Future deposits will be based on future exchange priced based on our USD prices. |

I was thinking the same exact thing. Very similar grammar and trolling. I love how he throws around accusations of anyone supporting an asic company as being a shill and then has shill accounts. What a hypocrite. |

I am curious as to why it is so expensive to add the power supply on the bigger units...$900 seems like a lot!!

While browsing your website & looking at prices,I notice the Elysium 150,000 MH/s is quoted at $329,but in the "add to bag" window it shows $670...  ? Why the descrepancy in prices |

Well,its not just that product.Its all of them show sigificantly more in the "add to bag" window dropdown columns  30% would be LESS not more,if my grade school math is still working  Edit: It says "100%-$670" ............................. BTW,barrel connectors for power max out @ less than 100 watts,I believe.Am I correct If so,then the design for power supply connections is flawed on all the smaller devices useing more than that...................... |

I looked at your XCrowd products. Everything looks fine and lovely except common usa households cannot handle more than 1920 watts of continuous power. They operate at fuse outlet circuits 120v x 20 amp. And 80%/continuous power of 2400watts is 1920 watts.
Therefore, I could not buy ASCRAEUS nor OLYMPUS. Your prices are more attractive than Cointerra bogus shit.
