Also available for $1645 on Amazon if you don't have the bitcoin

That's true, but there are no details yet available on overclocking yet.
But if you want to be sure get a 1000W fully modular platinum certified psu

I think a 850+ watt Gold or platinum psu should be fine to run two S3 miners:)

I apologize if this has been covered, but didn't see anything when searching.  Does BITMAIN have a recommended PSU for the S3?  I know the specs that are required, but wondering if there was a PSU that BITMAIN used in particular for their testing.

That's great news, 22:00pm what time zone thanks ?

Update S3 sales news  

The First Batch of AntMiner S3 runs out of stock. we are ready to start to sell the Second Batch of S3 at 22:00 pm on July 1st (UTM + 8 ), and drop the sales price to 0.74 BTC each with international shipping. The Second Batch is estimated to be delivered about 2-4 days after shipping of the First Batch of S3 for 0.75 BTC each, but still no later than July 20th.

All good advice, order seems to have been fixed as of this morning.

We are raffling off two S3 units - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/raffle-mmxiv-is-raffling-off-two-antminer-s3s-sold-out-drawing-on-the-27th-671686

Good luck!

Just bought my first ever miners :-) bought 2 of these to get my started! yey!

Same thing happened with my order.  This happened fairly often 6 months ago or so.  You would hear people mention/complain about it fairly regularly.  Has something to do with the Blockchain API. 

I *thought* they fixed it, or at least, I thought they updated the site so if you had at least *one* confirmation on the blockchain before your "hour deadline" was up, the system gave you more time instead of demanding 6 confirms in an hour...or whatever...but yeah, the problem appears to be back at a particularly unfortunate time.

Anyway, like I said, you're not alone -- I ran into the same problem.  In my case, I got 6 confirmations in about 50 minutes; but the Bitmain website still moved me to "paid/expired" anyway, so I don't know *what* the threshold is at this point.  But in the past, Bitmain always was good about fixing this -- just PM him and email [email protected] or [email protected] and tell them your order and transaction ID.  This is the first time I've had this problem actually affect me personally, but I've seen it happen to more than enough people to not start panicking quite yet.

Also remember that it's 01:58 in China right now, so you need to give Bitmain a few more hours to wake up and read/reply to all the PMs and emails.  Sometimes it helps to post your order in the thread; so I guess we'd might as well do that part so the Bitmain rep can let us know we're confirmed/okay when they get back online.

Bitmain: Can you please confirm my "expired/paid/valid/invalid" order #00120140630135825601wjzCCJF50696 (see my PM for transaction ID and other details) is okay and still scheduled to ship with everyone else's? Thanks!

Order expired despite having sent funds to Bitmain address on order. Can someone at Bitmain look into this for me?

Got my first 7!!!  Go Bitmain GO

Bitmain site has been updated and the S3 is indeed 0.75btc
Speed:    478 GH/s

 

Wonder when they will put up the S1 upgrades? and what price they will be?

Coindesk.com are carrying a story saying that the S3 is .75btc and available by the 10th July.

Just checked the Bitmaintech Website, and it looks like they've cleaned out their old stock. As of right now, the only product listed for sale is an S2 for delivery on July 1. Here's hoping it means new products are coming!

So, it seems someone has hacked the Bitmaintech Facebook site and is taking orders for S3s.  They are not Bitmaintech so do not send money to anyone that claims to be taking orders.

Here are the headers to the email they sent me.
