Hi guys,
only one question:

- how many days, after the purchase on bitmaintech.com,  I have to wait for tracking number  ?

Thanks  Smiley

I got mine next day Smiley
EDIT: Delivered 3 days later in EU.

have you got it via email or website ?

Yes because in the event of refund you will have hard time proving bitmain that the address belongs to you because you cant sign it unlike bitcoin client..

q for the forum

I sent my payment to Bitmain directly from my Bitstamp account.  Would it have been better to go from bitstamp ---->my wallet -----> then to Bitmain?

I paid for mine through Virwox and it went through just fine. About 25+/- minutes after I sent the payment it was confirmed.

I just paid my order 00120140122105345770ncJ6Bh3C065E.  If you cant ship before CNY, I understand, but PLEASE CANCEL MY ORDER if its not possible for you to ship it before CNY.

Im can buy another one if you confirm it will be shipped before the new year.

and to all a Happy New Year.

elasticband is noisy (understandably) but I don't think there is that big of a problem. Most of the time S1's get shipped out within a few working days of ordering without issue, the only general communication issue is with delivery tracking details being sent out sporadically.

Correct i am noisy because i don't like being ignored or having threats made of only paying 21btc or nothing back if i post publicly regarding this, until the refund is issued i don't trust bitmain based on these threats.

I also don't appreciate them shifting the blame, telling me i am being dishonest or having no accountability for their lack of communication causing delays.

My experience of seeking compensation for loss of earnings due to them sending a faulty S1 unit was not that great either, i guess i should be grateful  the control board was replaced.

Any update today Bitmain? I will keep asking daily until i get communications from you.

Communication is your biggest downfall and can be read in any thread your machines have been sold.

I was going to buy from bitmain/sushi. But after seeing how they handle problems with respected members of the community I changed my mind.
It's a shame. Really.

I think if you are buying one or two S1's you will be fine, but if you buy in bulk then make sure everything is sorted out with customs beforehand.

Folks, elasticband does not talk about unit delivery and delay. Look few pages back about packet of 500 u1 unit were stuck at china customs office and ups reqired vat number.

I am talking about lack of communication resulting it delays, the whole VAT situation could have been dealt with if tracking was handed out in a timely fashion.  Miss-communications and constantly getting told it was being dealt by one person then when i speak to another i get a totally different story.

I have been told UPS have contacted me and i did not tell them to release the package and this is why it is still on hold. At no point until yesterday have i spoke to UPS or have they tried to contact me as i was told it was getting dealt with on the china side.

When i spoke to UPS today they say the complete opposite of what Bitmain tells me, they say it is the senders obligation to have the package returned. I can only reject the package upon the receiving and as i have not received i cannot reject, even the racking has updated twice saying they have contacted the sender. Nothing about receiver.

UPS tracking has updated to "Clearance in Progress" so hopefully.

For those asking about tracking numbers... MyUPS tells me that mine are coming in on Thursday(U.S. West coast),  and were shipped t 01/21/2014    10:41 P.M.  My status still says unshipped on Bitmain's website.  Hope that helps you plan.

If the status says unshipped on bitman's website, how did you track the package without a tracking number?

myUPS service - shows all packages on the way to your address

BUT

it is US only!!!
maybe GB also?
i have a myusp account
and im in the UK

where do you find out about packages on the way to your address


it is US only!!!

Also wondering if the most recent orders will be coming with pcie extenders?

They come with pci-e connectors on the board so no need for them.

wait what?  I thought these had screw terminals for power?  I recall someone posting pics.
Which one is true ?
I need to prepare power supply before miner arrive.
So it can mine immediatly when arrive.

The later units come with both screw terminals and pcie sockets.   I noted on one of mine the screw terminals were black for negative and yellow for +12v to match the pcie wiring convention.  Other units are black negative and red +12v

3 orders (2014-01-19 21:05:45,   2014-01-19 19:51:42,   2014-01-19 15:35:07) have no shipping cponfirmation yet. Im hoping bitmain has them in the mail and just hasnt yet passed on the tracking info (in the past, i often got the info 12hrs after the boxes were received by UPS, if not already out of the country)

crossing my fingers they come this week, but without a tracking number soon I just dont know

Do not worry. Bitmain will deliver your order first, and update the tracking number later.
My order show 'unshipped', but I got all antminers.
Just be patient and good luck.

I now when you click system
Then backup/flash firmware
Generate achieve under download backup
You can create a full archive tar file
Inside there is the asic file inside etc/config
I wonder if you use a text editor on that, and change to 400 instead of 350
And upload that backup back to the miner
Wouldn't that be the same as editing the asic file with winscp?




That is what I was thinking, but having never done it, I'm not sure. So I had to ask.
Hi
guys
 i would not recommend that way
if you don't put the files back in the right format
you run the risk of killing your miner

If you need help on editing the files im only to happy to help you out
