Risers can now be ordered on Amazon! Soon to be fulfilled by Amazon, as soon as I can get enough here to cover my own customers and ship several thousand to the amazon warehouse.

Cannot wait to get mine when your shipment arrives. Figured I could have some with Scrypt so I don't fiddle with my bitcoin pool thats actually running right.
Then not sure what to fiddle with next (even though I have 2-3 projects (cars) to mess with in the same area LOL!), so we shall see!

@RickjamesBTC: I finally got the notice for the order to be delivered from the Post office, so it took a bit more than 2 weeks from order to arrive. Are you thinking about other shipping methods as well?
I try not to make any money on shipping, so the price is what it is. If people want to pay $100 or more for international express shipping with FedEx or even usps still, I can do it. When I offer the first shipping rate it is the cheapes option. OK. Good to know you can offer other options.

Having amazon spend all the time packing and shipping orders instead of me will be worth it! I have them on amazon now at $23 with free first class shipping.

For graphics cards? not possible. This isn't a usb signal, they just use them because they are a great, cheap, shielded cable.

Can we still order directly from you? Amazon does not ship to Canada.

Yes, and in a few minutes / hours I'll have my brand new Bitcoin only shopping cart up and running as a subsite for the main shopping cart. This will let international orders make normal accounts and place orders without having to do it via PM.

Did the PCB on the amazon ones change? If I order through the site will it still be the wider blue colored PCB with the 4 screw holes on them? Curious because I changed my design so that I could screw the PCB boards onto a frame. Let me know, thanks!

You really shouldn't be screwing the riser cards to a frame. I don't think they can support the weight of a gpu hanging off of them. You should support the gpu, and just let the riser cards hang from them. The design hasn't changed, almost all of the cards I've been selling have been the wider ones, with the molex connector. Amazon doesn't let me control images on some items at this time. The color of the pcb can vary though, I get what I get. They will all work the same. Thanks!

Ok, there is now a "Shop With Bitcoin" menu option, which opens up a completely different shopping cart with perfect Bitcoin processing through Coinbase. It's slick, it works, and the shopping cart looks terrible because I haven't really had a chance to mess with themes and appearances yet. However, it has shipping logic for every international destination!!! Finally, no more orders through PM and email. Please make sure to include correct details in your account, otherwise your customs invoice won't be correct, and there may be delays.

It's only to prevent the back side of the card from moving anywhere, the pcb isn't holding the hole card by itself, like this: http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTE0OVgxNjAw/z/N2kAAOxy4dNS8Efn/$_57.JPG http://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxMDg4/z/~hcAAOxyVaBS8Efm/$_57.JPGhttp://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/MTYwMFgxMDg1/z/ofMAAMXQVT9S8Efn/$_57.JPG

I actually would like to buy the narrow ones, with the PCI-E plug that goes parallel to the motherboard rather than up. I have an application where I mount the MB vertically.
Does anyone know where I can get some of these? 50 qty?

I'll ask about them, they go the wrong way and I don't see them often. Having the cables head out the back side of the card was making it difficult for the little cards to stay in the slots because of the weight of the cables.

Having the cables head out the back side of the card was making it difficult for the little cards to stay in the slots because of the weight of the cables. I would like risers exactly like this: https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fi.ebayimg.com%2Ft%2FPCI-e-express-1X-to-1X-16x-Riser-Extender-Card-with-extra-power-1M-USB-3-0-Cable-%2F00%2Fs%2FNDQxWDYwMA%3D%3D%2Fz%2FDwMAAMXQdGJRzwCz%2F%24T2eC16JHJHEFFl1d5l%2CJBRzwCzSVzw~~60_3.JPG&t=537&c=bbGDOUda9yPqYgNarrow PCB that mounts to card (for better airflow) Sata power connectors under the USB )keeps it narrow plus I get to BANISH crappy molex connectors from my life!!! :-) ) Horizontal orientation on the USB cable at the 1X PCI-E plug 60cm USB Cable When you mount the motherboard vertically (like on a wall) it is easier to secure the USB cable when it runs parallel to the MB (whether it be up or down) rather than poke straight out from the wall. I can see where a straight out (90° from the MB) might be preferred when the MB is laid flat. Although none of the 1X plugs have been very tight, meaning that that move with any movement of the USB cable. I shorted out one of yours Rick this way, with only a small USB cable movement. It was enough for the pins to cross and ZAP! Didn't ruin the MB but was out a riser plug. Melted the traces.
