BITMAIN's website and online store are open-promotion with limited 30 AntMiner

I think the biggest concern on mine (and I would assume others like me but I cannot be sure) is that I cannot make the correct modifications to power supplies to power these things.  Could you possible consider an option of adding premade wires or something that all I have to do is then connect them to a standard ATX power supply?  That would be helpful and I know that you would get at least a couple of orders from me, and a lot from a guy I know looking to buy a couple TH's of machines but is concerned about setup.

Newest batch(es) have PCI-E connectors already on the blades - problem solved!

Well sir that was very helpful, thank you for a quick reply

[RenFarm]

Dear all, can you tell me please which price show in the invoice?

[PinkPotatos]

What cart solution is this? You could add coinpayments and accept alot more then just btc

[Swimmer63]

Yesterday after I bought the 2.4BTC miner I went back to the site to see if I could get another.
My only option was a price of 2.65BTC.  So I put it in my cart but did not buy it as I had no btc and really did not expect to have enough until late this week.
But I had a little windfall so I went to the site on another pc and tried to buy one, but could not.  It appears they were out.  But when I sign in to my account on my laptop my cart still has one miner in it for 2.65BTC.  Just sittin' there.  So I bought it and it's been confirmed.  Nice glitch!

oddly, my package destined to canada has made 2 stops so far:
Incheon, Korea, Republic of    01/14/2014    11:17 P.M.   Departure Scan
01/14/2014    9:30 P.M.   Arrival Scan
Chek Lap Kok, Hong Kong    01/14/2014    6:01 P.M.   Departure Scan

wonder why? before it typically went direct to alaska, then ontario

Perfect! I was wondering the same.

Do you have a update picture of the AntMiner (showing this)?

Thanks.

Same here, the problem is that UPS just delayed the f*cking delivery...

Scheduled Delivery Updated To:
Thursday, 01/16/2014, By End of Day

[Jeffrey]

Mine went sort of the same route.

UPS is just SO ANNOYING to work with... I need to vent a little.

I missed the package because I was at work on day 1
- day 2 I was home (especially for the miner) when I was out of the door for litteraly 4 minutes, I missed the UPS guy. I rang UPS knowing the UPS van would be very close, asking them if he could turn around or stop somewhere so I could go to him. Wasn't possible, they can't call their drivers.
- leaving at the neighbours wasn't an option because it had to be paid (ok, this makes sense)
- in the meantime I received confirmation about a 2nd ant being sent to me by UPS was also ready for delivery, so it's 2 ants I'm waiting for now
- Asked them if I could pay the amount upfront by bank or something so it could be delivered without charge at the neighbours (told them it was OK if they sign for me), wasn't possible
- sending it to my work was not an option. I work at a hospital IT department, so I asked them to deliver there. They said at hospitals they only deliver at the goods receivement. I work there a few days a week (hired, not fixed personell) so I don't know those guys. I asked them to call me when the driver is close so I can pick it up, but that wasn't possible
- Asked them to deliver at my office where I am today, wasn't possible because it was too far from my home
- Asked them to deliver after 17:00 or in the weekend, nope wasn't possible either
- Asked them if I could pick it up, well this was possible but only during working hours (09:00-17:00 weekdays only) which doesn't work for me this and the next week
- Asked them to deliver at my parents in law, surprisingly this was possible but it would take another day
- Asked them to send me an email with both amounts that had to be paid (I was in the car while arranging this), guess what... WASN'T POSSIBLE because she didn't have email on the PC she's working on
- Asked them if the amount can be paid by credit/debet card, wasn't possible
- Asked them if the driver has change, no he hasn't , needs to be paid the exact amount, "or you can give any excess amount to the driver as fee"

WHAT THE HELL seriously?

Conclusion is now it will be delivered 4 days later than the 1st attempt because UPS is as flexible as a concrete wall.

Yuk, yuk, yuk.

[cyberspaced]

When will the 2.65 batch be shipped?

sounds similar.
-I ask them to hold it for pickup rather then sending on delivery attempt, told they cant do that until after first attmpt
-I ask the same thing again at 6:30Pm because theres no UPS delivery yet, told the exact same thing
- First delivery attempt shows up at 9:45PM - no notice tag left, I assume this 'attempt' happened at the same time as the truck returned to the distribution center
- I ask them to hold it for pickup ASAP, told its too late at night, and its on a truck for delivery attempt #2 the next day
- 2nd attempt happens at 2PM, theres a note in the lobby for them with my buzzer code and what floor im on. Me and a friend are home from 11am-3pm and there is no knock, no buzzer call, and no delivery notice left anywhere in the building
- I call to pick it up, finally arrange to pick up the next weekday morning

UPS is a terrible service. I never have problems with FedEx, Canada Post, or DHL - only UPS seems to skip my address and fail to leave any proof of being there (ie: attempt notice)

[klondike_bar]

I see the site now offers for 2.2 BTC. considering the 2.4 BTC units are yet to arrive this seems a little bit of a quick price drop?

[cyberspaced]

Yep, 2.2 on their site and I have paid 2.65 for one that has not even shipped yet!!!! 

"We created a myth in bitcoin community: no pre-orders, shipping on time, even pre- shipping.  We are earning more and more trust from worldwide customers." how long will that last if you make a firesale and then sell the items cheaper a few days later??

So please Bitmain, answer your emails and give us all our "unshipped" Ants for 2.2 BTC

When did you order the 2.65BTC units? It makes sense that they ship a few days after the small fire-sale batch (if/assuming they are a different batch run). The 2.2 BTC units wont ship until sometime next week, close to the weekend.

In other news, my 2.4BTC unit is running today, and I passed the 1TH mark for my farm

My 2.4 unit came in yesterday and it's also up and running.

I ordered on jan. 13 and it was shipped yesterday! The 2.2 batch will start shipping tomorrow ( Jan. 18 ) as stated in the OP, so they will arrive at the same time or one day later than mine that cost 2.65 BTC, so I end up paying 0.45 BTC for NOTHING other that Bitmains greed!!

I even asked them to cancel my order if I could not get it for 2.2 BTC, that mail they also avoided answering untill they had shipped the Ant ( that email was sent 2 days before they shipped )

I have mailed them, but they graciously avoid all questions and just give me a runaround about a coupon for 0.2 BTC! They are so greedy that they can't even give a refund of 0.45 BTC, or the 0.2 BTC... What is a coupon for their site worth, can't buy anything for that and who knows if they are even in business in a few weeks.

So all in all, I and all who paid 2.65 BTC are being scammed for 0.45 BTC

disagree and it more seems that you are greedy

i bought mine for 2.4 and take risk that order will go wrong ( site was on beta stage )

pay on 11.1 and receive mine yesterday 16.1 ( it arrive on 15.1 but UPS )

so you receive discount and still unhappy ? your ANT will arrive before next diff and earlier either 2.2 current sales

what you need also ?

i will happy if Bitmain was selling units for free , LOL , but they sell with most attractive price and you still unhappy .

see BtMINE thread or buy from Cointerra and etc ( April/May shipping )

[DebitMe]

BitMain, I sent you an email yesterday about paying in USD and you responded that it is possible and to let you know when I am ready and you will give me bank info.  I responded asking about the per unit price in USD, but have not received a reply back.  My partner and I would like to get this order in today, if you could please check your support email address and get back to me that would be appreciated.
