Hey everyone! I just wanted to apologize for how I was acting earlier over the course of the last week or so. It was very childlike on my end and I regret acting like so. I felt the need to express my personal opinions in the wrong manner and location, so for that (and my annoyance) I am sorry!

GAW, nothing is perfect but you all seem to make everything good in the end. And that's what matters.  

Happy Mining all,
WH  

Good statement. So you openly admit that your previous accusations and telling everyone here that GAW is shady company were all just not true at all. Of course GAW is not perfect but from my experience they are currently the best company in this business on market, and they really worked hard to resolve every issue people have so far. I was wondering about some weird comments here calling GAW shady etc. and I am glad that you found the truth that GAW really is to be trusted.

anyone in Canada know if you get charged import duties? Mine is now showing:

Awaiting authorization of/or advance duty payment from customer.

[___TR___]

AVG: 40 watts and puts out the heat.

1.3mh/s

Using cgminer windows build from GAW site. Uptime about 1 1/2hr

Did you measure power taken from the wall outlet or is this pure the power taken by the device?
I can imagine that it will get rather hot with 40W and a hand sized heat-sink with a small fan.
There seem to be quite a lot of hardware errors, is this normal? or did you increase the clock too much?

Power is measured at the wall outlet. Running at recommended clock speed freq. of 328. Listed spec. of 1MH/s+ at 35watts so it is working as specified by GAW.
I am having trouble on some pools with a lot of rejected shares.

Hey reactor, are things ok with your order? Because you're happily posting here, while maintaining your "possible scam" thread. What's up with that?

This is as far as I got:

But the page on GST reads that you owe import tax:

Any item mailed to Canada is potentially subject to duty and taxes. Although the GST was designed as a tax on the consumption of goods and services within Canada, imported goods are also subject to the GST because this ensures fair tax treatment for domestic products. Therefore, unless specifically exempted, you must pay the 5% GST on items you import into Canada by mail.

Wish I could give a more direct answer, the US has no import duties from China/HK on computer hardware so we're safe.  Hopefully the above site helps!

Thanks. I sometimes don't get hit with it but sometimes I do. Not sure why sometimes there's nothing, thought maybe it was who ws delivering it as I never had a DHL deliver before. For me they if they get me they hit me with 15% I guess since tax is 15%  where I live.

My order is in Ohio, well technically en route from Ohio to NJ, meaning it should be delivered today.  So my software is all built, I've got a zenBox with a disturbingly long network cable creatively running through three rooms in case I have any out-of-the-gate issues and need to plug that in, and if history is any lesson DHL will show up between 1-3, possibly knocking so hard as to wake my daughter up from her nap upstairs, and I'll be adding ~1.35M to my little whirring collection of hardware.

Right now I'm focusing on helping community members - hence the Zen thread in my signature.  Not posting in any other threads regarding GAW.  I've got pending questions that are being handled in private.  Thanks.

That's great, so if you're happy with the services and nobody was actually scammed, I'd appreciate if you could close or delete the "possible scam" thread. Thank you.

Nobody said this.  I stand by my criticisms that launch week didn't go as planned, but that was a hiccup with brand new hardware coming into the market on a brand new platform.  Now I'm focused on helping folks get hardware running + optimizing the hardware, like I did when I originally got my gridseed stuff in the tuning/performance thread over there.

I asked the mods just now to delete the scam accusation thread since the board won't let me do it.

Anything else I can assist you with, EvilPanda?

I understand and appreciate your effort, that's why I didn't mention your independent thread just the one with accusations. A bit of constructive criticism never hurt anyone.
Have a nice day

Check at your pool make sure difficulty is set at 128 (possibly 256) at pool side and run miners against there own worker. Gridseeds loved anything under 128 so find the right Difficulty and as always mileage may vary.

Does anyone know if we need to sign for these when they get delivered.If so Guess Ill be working from home tomorrow.

it may be better id he instead tells in that thread that his accusations were unfounded and explains that while notwwithout bumps in the road, for the most part everyone is pretty happy

you can request that they just drop them if yours are with DHL. Just look at your tracking page. or go to dhl.com/mydelivery

My Fury is hashing away @1.3MHs happily so I turned off my 7990 rig which @.19KWH wasn't really doing anything for me. So happy that I ordered another Fury! Sucks I have to wait a couple of weeks for it but that's OK.
