Note that flash drive enclosures can easily be bought as empty shells, free to drop in whatever electronics you want.
I still wonder what's actually inside them, though. I'd crack one open if I had one, but since you have to order at least 100, I'll pass.

I asked for pricing, and with the suggested DHL shipping the costs were rediculous.
0.03BTC per unit before shipping is too much. I would pay 0.05BTC for 2 if that included shipping simply due to thier novelty value and to see whats inside, but anything more than that is just throwing away money on something worthless

Wasn't the pricing 99 Yuan? DHL shipping would be ridiculous, but at least it would arrive before the end of the quarter (china post is not exactly the fastest option)

Believe me, it's a BTC miner. We make it small and cute. Now you can buy it on ebay and aliexpress. Here is a evaluating report on CYBTC.COM: http://www.cybtc.com/article-594-1.html

This is not a miner, it is a USB flash drive with a silk screened logo on it. There is not 1 single picture of an asic mining chip inside these things anywhere.

I'm sure iCoinTech wouldn't mind cracking one open and posting a picture - but it wouldn't really prove much, and even videos can be faked.
( Not that I'd mind if they did post inside shots/video! )

My problem is the price . it is way too high There are now more and more venders on ebay and aliexpress selling iMiner, and since there are more vendors, the price would be cheeper and they would provide some cheeper shipping ways.

Many people don't think the BTC miner can be made so small. Haha, but we did it.
This is a evaluating report on CYBTC.COM, which is one of the most famous BTC website in China. http://www.cybtc.com/article-594-1.html
And the store of CYBTC.COM just begin to sell it today: http://www.cybtc.com/it618_scoremall-scoremall_page.html?pid=38
We are a techinical team in China, and we like make electronic products nice and smart. BTC is the most amazing invension in the world in this century. We think BTC miners should not be cumbersome and ugly.
This Apail, we will present our new miners with our second generation chips, which would be very nice and cute and with powerful hashrates.

We are glad you like iMiner. And we are sorry for the price, because the exchange rate between BTC and CNY changes a lot those days.
There are more and more vendors on aliexpress and ebay now. They would provide better and cheeper shipping ways. For example: http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=iMiner&catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20140217085000
