Are the units stuck in customs because of FC compliance issues or because they are unable to put it into a specific category?

Yes that is the case, "US Customs requires further inspection".. they do not know what it is. UGH

Cleared fedex immediately, the driver attempted delivery outside of hours (about 30 mins early) went to get breakfast and came back the minute of our posted hours saying "I saw you guys weren't open yet so I went to get some food and came back"...

DHL = 1 hour long phone call "We might be able to come back"

I also recall having problems with customs, then again customs only thought i forgot to add my VAT number as they didn´t think a private person would buy such pricy "server equipment"

After that they first said, "we have to look into the box" but after 2 days somehow came to the conclusion that they didn´t want to look into the box anymore...

I created new FW version that has option to customise DC2DC current (1.3.31-experiment).
If you have COLD ambient temperature (<25C) and slow corner May batch unit:
Set
-----
DC2DC current limit to 63
AC2DC limit to 1265
start voltage to 0.68
max voltage to 0.73
fans to 80%
------
and you just might get about ~1.5.

If you don't have slow corner May unit or don't know what Asic corner unit you have, set start voltage to 0.660. I didn't try it but it might give you a bit more.

Just monitor the DCt column in the ASIC stats that it is not over 90, and I don't know how stable it is, so if you leave it over night you might loose hash rate if it falls.

It's in custom FW downloads, 1.3.31-experiment, only for the brave for now.

It appears US Customs is holding for 5 days to inspect to insure it is not counterfeit. OMFG these idiots would not know their a$$ from a hole in the ground and THEY are going to know IF a circuit is counterfeit. This is a nightmare

So are they going to drop prices for the group buy since they have dropped site prices to $2795.00

[jonnybravo0311]

Spoke with the great guys at Spondoolies last night - they were extremely helpful and answered questions quickly and succinctly.  I was impressed enough that I placed an order for an SP-10.  This morning, I start the fun international wire transfer process, and by 3:00 this afternoon local, it clears and processes.  Within the hour the price drops.  LOL... I feel like Maxwell Smart... "Missed it by that much!"

RoadStress, I'd like to thank you for putting together this group buy with Spondoolies.  I can't wait to get my new SP-10!

you dont get free shipping with the new lower price, and it still works out to being above $2900 when you select your form of shipping.

That means there is no incentive for a group buy when you get the same price for your own unit. I am sure they are talking and this might get me off the sidelines.

If I order today what vendor will ship? It still says DHL on the site and am scared stuff will get stuck in customs.

With the rise in BTC price and knowing this will arrive in 1 piece I decided to pull the trigger, looking forward to plugging her into the farm. Hopefully DHL isn't the shipper and if they are I don't have the nightmares like others. Fingers crossed!

[wpgdeez]

Sorry for all the questions, how many confirmations until payment status changes?

For US customers, we're currently shipping with Fedex. We'll start shipping with UPS as well to test who give the better service.

Thank God! DHL in the USA sucks big time....in the whole bottom 1/2 of the State of Minnesota they only have 1 Truck per couple days
from what I understand...and it is not even a driver hired by DHL from what I was told....done on who is available from a driver pool...

UPS is the big boy in the USA....at least from trucks to you...imho

Hope to see mine before June, customs "inspection" by unqualified "inspectors", OH right this is the USA.. Maybe Bitfury paid off DHL to cause import problems..  SOBs

I'm in Canada, do we get lumped in with the US as well?

UPS is also known to be killer when it comes to import and brokerage fees. Unless its shipping from Bitmain

Just curious what the queue status is like and when I can expect my SP10 to ship out. Are you guys ahead of the game with hardware on shelf now?
