Any idea on what size box the cubes are gonna ship in?
OP says medium flat rate is likely, but subject to change. |

Canary, is shipping free for the hubs? I don't see any info on the priority box size to print a label for in the OP.

Use a padded flat rate envelope label for the hub. |

Hi Canary, From a UK AM Cube group buy: Looks like it's not DHL Fault, China Customs apparently are on high alert looking out for Miners as they know the value and what they can produce. Hopefully will clear customs soon. Is this also going to be a problem for your orders? Any status update on the shipment from friedcat? Thanks. |

Someone believable and somewhat scary. As far as I can gather business is done in China more on a "how much power do you wield, and how much do you know" basis much more than a "let's follow our legal guidelines" method of doing things. Though that being said there is more than a couple of things getting shipped out of China daily (lol) and I can't imagine many customs guys know what Bitcoin miners are, though who knows, maybe if it's the same dude who processes all of FC's stuff then ya, feasible Mr Wang in shipping could 'know what's up'.

To be fair, Friedcat always declared the values insanely low for miners. I wouldn't be surprised if the government simply wants their piece of the pie when it comes to customs and tariffs...

I think the values he places on the invoices represent manufacturing costs which correct. |

Sounds like business as usual anywhere on the planet. |

Hey Canary this is off topic but why is it that in China they have to get an exporter first and then lead to an DHL tracking. Always wondered why don't they just take it DHL direct and get the tracking.

I'll go out on a limb and say that DHL doesn't have the appropriate exporters' licenses to handle it, whereas the other companies are better suited to handle it. |
