The Pavonis is 2.5 kg which is absolutely fine in my book. Of course people complaining about the high end stuff being high end is a little silly, if you can't afford to store a 80kg box somewhere you can't afford the power requirements (1.700W - 3.200W or 2.600W - 5.000W) of it either. So it is very likely it is not a viable option for you anyway.
An empty blade center S weighs over 35kg
I am guessing a lot more full.

Yup. Uber ridiculous. It's not like the product design for a fridge that at least will sit in my house for full 5-10 years at my home. This crap goes to the dumper in 1 year after mining so what company cares about spending so much $$ on temporary 'blade center' technology crap. They should also include a heavy duty, complimentary dolly with it.
I don't think I could get one past my wife that's for sure :-)
Even if you were able to sneak it, it's stupidly designed to leave a crater in your garage, lol!! I mean BFL is into the doorstep business so XC decided to enter into the cool yet hulking mini-bar business? Something's messed up.

Shipping costs will be added to your bill later. So at the time of the order, people have no idea of the extra shipping costs.
Now look at the size and weight of the Olympus:
Unit Dimensions: W65"xH60"xD25"
Weight: 50KG - 80KG
This thing is enormous. I suggest you demand a quote of the shipping costs before you order or you are in for a big surprise.
Keep in mind they ship from China.

OMG!!! Are those dimensions a freaking joke?
?80 Kgs?? That has to be the most f'ing ridiculous miner ever!
Bitfury packs 400 Gh/s in a tiny fraction of that ubermonster. Your kid could even lift 5 of those kits with one hand and yes, those are blade-design too.
There's no colo service on earth that would take that ridiculous Olympus nuclear reactor and still profitably mine with the associated colo expenses.
How many units of rack space is that? like 37???!!!
In other words, it's impossible to make money with this crap if you can't even mine with it at home. On the other hand, if you want hosted services they ask for a nonsense terabillion as a minimum.
I'm NOT interested in their low-end products so please don't even offer me that option.
I mean I could also get 5 Monarch PCI cards from BFL and that's 3TH! that I can pick up with one hand.
Is there another way to make this work? I was about to spend money on 1 or 2 of these but this product is begging not to be purchased :-/
Worst turn off ever! I really hope I'm missing something or that I'm having a nightmare and those are just mock specs when I wake up!!
Import duties / VAT / etc will have to be paid by the customer i suppose
and a 175cm * 175cm * 75cm box will not pass customs unnoticed :-)

Hope not, this is one of the main reasons I was interested in a UK company. A 4000$ US miner was around 4800$ after import duty and VAT to the UK

Keep in mind they ship from China.
They ship from China directly to their customers or they ship it to themselves and then ship it again to their customers?
It makes a big difference in terms of customs clearance and paying VAT, import duty and other fees.

Ordered 2 ELYSIUM units, order number 74 & 76, waiting for escrow instructions.
I really hope x-crowd delivers as promised!

Popped an order in myself.
Much less stressed about risking a deposit than a full payment.
Ok XCrowd do you stuff.

What did you go for, if you dont mind me asking?
Just the smallest unit as I am more of a hobby miner than anything.
Hoping to do a review of it for the Amateur radio society in Cardiff. With the advent of the Raspberry pi the guys are into all sorts not just radios.
Ive ordered too 
(15000MH unit)
got in early, still waiting for escrow details....
Has any one recieved them?

My take on the email is that the details are posted to your address.
Does anyone else read it that way?

So I guess that wall of dox kind of overshadowed my question so:
Also another thing I was thinking about...Is the price with bitcoin in escrow going to change at the end due to price fluctuation? Like what if btc rises to $200. Will we then release only a portion of the coins to you or what?
Also another thing I was thinking about...Is the price with bitcoin in escrow going to change at the end due to price fluctuation? Like what if btc rises to $200. Will we then release only a portion of the coins to you or what?
The escrow deposits sent will be kept at the same value regardless if it's in BTC or Fiat. However you would be able to send over less coins if you only deposited 30%.
For example - you send over $329 in escrow deposits (30%) at the current BTC exchange rates that would amount to 2.65 BTC.
If the BTC price rises to $200 per BTC when we request the full deposit just before dispatch then you would only have to send over another 3.35 BTC to cover the current total price of 8.2 BTC. Hope that makes sense.
What if the BTC price falls to $10 we would need to pay a lot more 67 BTC . You should not cap your price based on BTC, it should always be based on the US$, BTC fluctuates to much for comfort.
Very Risky because Prices of BTC up and down anytime.
If you accept and pays in fiat many of us would be more interested.
Not only we have to pay the 10% extra for the deposit payment option but also the escrow fees of 1%. Why would you need to add in the 10% and why not you pay the 1% or so escrow fees.
When we cancel are we liable to pay the 1% Fee or not needed?
You are obviously a less talented troll with plenty of sock puppet accounts. Why don't you just give it a break you dumb child.
I looked at your XCrowd products. Everything looks fine and lovely except common usa households cannot handle more than 1920 watts of continuous power. They operate at fuse outlet circuits 120v x 20 amp. And 80%/continuous power of 2400watts is 1920 watts.
Therefore, I could not buy ASCRAEUS nor OLYMPUS. Your prices are more attractive than Cointerra bogus shit.

While browsing your website & looking at prices,I notice the Elysium 150,000 MH/s is quoted at $329,but in the "add to bag" window it shows $670...?
Why the descrepancy in prices
?Why the descrepancy in prices
I noticed the same thing. I think it shows the price of a 30% deposit instead of the full unit price.
Well,its not just that product.Its all of them show sigificantly more in the "add to bag" window dropdown columns
30% would be LESS not more,if my grade school math is still working
Edit: It says "100%-$670" .............................
BTW,barrel connectors for power max out @ less than 100 watts,I believe.Am I correct
If so,then the design for power supply connections is flawed on all the smaller devices useing more than that......................
