[ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - carrier grade, data center ready mining rigs

[Biodom]

The reinvestment allowed me to hash today 21x faster than 1 year ago and to earn ~1/3 of my initial investment this month.

The 'Reinvest At Any Cost' strategy looses to the long tail of diminishing returns and languishing bitcoin prices.

So far mining strategy was more successful for me than buy and hold (BTC) strategy-seriously. I refuse to frequently trade BTC because for me fast trading never works.

mine went from IL, to DE directly

Germany serves as a hub for fedex aswell as dhl.

Even miners flying fedex to the US pass through Germany, so nothing to worry about.

Obviously - 13 hrs in the wrong direction is to be expected & nothing to worry about at all.... (17 hrs since pick up)

Despite making it clear that i'll be away from the 31st, DHL not delivering on Sunday (the 31st) & Guy clarifying that he has no clue if it will arrive this month or next.

but thanks for your 'help'

[Marvell1]

wow its in Memphis already , cant help but be excited to receive it now even with the lower hash rate :  This is my first bitcoin miner after mining scrypt the last two years.

Are you being fair here?
I assume you got a tracking number and you want an answer from SP when it will be delivered.
SP has said they use the fast possible method and this you can verify from the shipping rate they used. If they used a slow one then you have every right to complain.
Since it has left SP premises and it is with DHL you have to deal with DHL.
DHL/UPS/TNT DONT deliver on Sundays - so even if they used a different company you wouldn't receive it on Sunday.

So now to your issue. The miners are using DHCP to setup network. Maybe you have to make the space needed, prepare network and cabling and have somebody place it there, power it up and then use teamviewer from your computer to setup the credentials to your pool etc.
Then you will be a happy miner

wow spoke to soon just checked the tracking and saw this :

Clearance delay!!!
Shipment requires importer's registration/identification number for clearance. (Examples include EIN, SSN, VAT, GST, RFC, etc.)

what ?

Well you get something imported from another country. So it needs clearance. What exactly is needed I don't know for USA but somebody that has done the process can help you.
You should just call DHL, provide your tracking number and ask what they need.

Your government wants to identify you via one of the numbers, eg social security...

So I took your advice and called FedEx and gave them my Business's TAXid (EIN #)  as well as my phone number.

I hope that's enough ugh I don't want t wait till next week.

Hello
i´m pretty new .
i´m from munich and have ordered one sp31.
I´m able to host in czech republik for 0,1€ for kw/h in my house here , but what when there is a problem
i live in Germany , munich.
should i host first 3 months at spondoolies-tech ?
What would you do ?

Regarding SP50 can someone explain what should be better when it comes with 8,8 TH/s and 4,5kW power consumption end of november ? RawDog posted

This means SP50 has 1,95 TH/kW  instead SP31 has 1,83TH/kW , so is 6% more efficient

o.k. there is the price  SP50 cost one TH 556$ , SP31 cost one TH 709$
but one month later delivery , maybe

So RawDog how do you calculate i don´t understand

[Collider]

There is no announced sp50 (see what your posts are doing to newbies rawdog?)

That user can safely be ignored (he seems to be trolling this thread pretty hard), most of his posts are either FUD or outright lies (or contain completely irrelevant information).

I guess I would find hosting outside the EU, as you would need to pay additional 20% VAT on miners imported into the EU.

I am from munich too :-)
i would suggest you to not host it in your hometown i cechz.
first you have to pay VAT after import into the EU, second you have nobody looking after your machine is a big problem.

i host with advania in iceland and soon hopefully in washington too.

good luck!

DHL ... touched down in Norway few hours ago then popped over to closer airport.

Buddy picking up the SP30's as I post. Can't wait to see them hashing today!

Pretty fast shipping have to say.

Glad to get tracking... My SP30s on the way to Norway just as the temps start cooling off.

Thanks SPTech for getting them out the door.

Hope to be mining in a few days.

Also shout out to RoadStress thanks for putting the GB together and getting us those discounted rates!

Very smoothly handled GB and the charity was definitely a PLUS to the whole experience.

EDIT:

Order   Date   Payment    Status   Fulfillment Status    Total
#1xxx   May 03, 2014   paid           fulfilled         Wouldn't you like to know.  

Look a couple of boxes fell off the back of the truck?



Unboxed #1. Resting quietly ears sticking out.



Unboxed #1 now mining. at 17:29 WIB. Roughly 2 days from leaving SPTech.

I just got finally an email with the DHL tracking number.

Little late, but thanks ST.

i think you may be confusing one or more posts with mine.

all i posted was a map with arrows pointing the wrong way. NOT blaming anyone, just pointing out FACTS as opposed to assumpotions and obfuscations. (im not suprised it threw you off though, with so much of it going on in here.

it was collider who once again jumped in with 2 left feet announcing that it was 'normal' and 'nothing to worry about', for what - i dunno...

im sure you can agree that 17 hrs in the wrong direction is far from 'usual' and equally far from 'nothing to worry about'

as to being fair - is shipping the 'august' miners on the last possible days of august fair??

is having a self appointed army of BS artists confusing everyone, fair??

it matters not.

and.... i have not mentioned DHCP/space/networks/cabling/power or any of the other stuff you mentioned, although i dont doubt there will be more drama once it arrives despite what the handful of 'full price' paying optimists claim.

all i/we can do is sit on our hands and occasionally vent in here - and even that seems to upset the same fortunate 'full price' few for some reason...

it seems the 7 usd per day theyve been accruing for 2-3 weeks isnt enough to keep their noses out of the rest of our concerns... peculiar!

Like all of these companies they often have a central hub. DHL = http://www.dpdhl.com/en/logistics_around_us/from_our_divisions/leipzig_hub.html

Suffice to say... they probably ship faster to you via the Lepzig hub than other hubs as per their sorting system. But of course they are going to save the most money if they route packages via the "cheapest" route within their system... or you will definitely pay more for something that doesn't ship through their normal hub routes. Remember most of these companies have a limited fleet so you can't expect perfect straight line coverage. Lots of hops typical.

Note if you are in Norway... EXCELLENT direct route almost from Israel.

My S2s from China to Norway via another company was abysmal nearly 4 days? Had to drive from Oslo to southern Norway and CUSTOMS was a bear as well.

[zvisha]

All those getting SP30s from GB contact me if you have issues but before that:

1) Update to latest version - 2.3.27
2) Install team-viewer or open ports for me to access your miner.
3) Contact me to zvi@spon...

[Stevbenson]

So its 1pm on Thursday in Israel right now and I still haven't even got a email about the compensation options.... Starting to seriously doubt the possibility that they will ship all the GB units by the end of the week...

Prove me wrong Spondoolies ... prove me wrong please
