anyone with ups tracking that purchased on 21th ?
I have a tracking number, but its the wrong number, looks to be someone else's order. Been trying to get correct tracking number for 2 days with no success ![Embarrassed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/embarrassed.gif) Does it say where the miner is going. Could be potentially mine or someone else.

Did you use bitcoins you had mined to pay for it? Theoretically they have no value, or only the value of the cost of the electricy and equipment used to mine them, being a virtual currency blah blah.. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) They probably want to know if you have a VAT number if you are a commercial entity, because its really about the VAT, there are no import duties for computer parts. Yes, I did. But anyway, that is irrelevant as mentioning Bitcoin to customs is not a good thing ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) tomorrow the last day for ordering right? Has BITMAIN updated anything regarding orders/availability timeframe since the 21st?
Yes, go back 1-2 pages ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

A question for those in the UK, has anyone had a call from UPS about the value of an Antminer without calling them calling UPS first?

Yes me. Check my last 5-6 posts in this topic, which are precisely about this. Got an email to confirm the value and was told I can pay over the phone later this evening or directly to the courier during delivery on Monday.

I understand you got one Cyper, I was really asking who else got a call because the shipment is in Mumbai and would not have gone through physical clearance in Castle Donnington so I am confused as to why you got singled out for such a call.

Cyper said that his was ordered on the 21st https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=417159.msg4709605#msg4709605, that was the same as my order date so I would be surprised if it shipped earlier. EDIT: As my order is stuck with others in Mumbai

Now I understand, your package was not cleared before it left Shenzhen, China. There would be concern or suspicion that it was added to the shipment at Bangkok, a common place for drugs to surface.

Same as mine, cleared before transit in China, Cypers shipment was in transit before it was cleared.

To you it is a good thing as it means that you shipment is fully in the system and you are unlikely to have to pay more VAT than expected. To me it is also a good thing as my VAT bill will also be low and I do not have to go hunting the f%^ktard that has wound up UPS by asking 'Is it here yet' like a kid in a car on a long journey.

Guess bad luck, mine went to kentucky via alaska. Try calling UPS they might know why its held up.
And customs still has my miners. UPS does not know why. Does anyone have any experience with US customs and bitcoin miners? Anything I can do at this point? My understanding is that they will take up to 5 business days before they release them... i've had dozens of ASIC rigs come thru UPS from several overseas sources and only a shipment of bitburners was ever held up. i've had 20 S1's come thru so far without any being held more than 6 hours before clearing.
