*bamf!* you've just been eaten by a gr00.
Can anyone confirm if the shipping is included in the 1.9 btc price?
Definitely seems to be.  And I'm not sure what company would be used?

Glad to see there is so much excitement re: the 180 GH/s Antminer!  I was trying to source one from China and finding there was a lot of price gouging.  1.9 btc is quite reasonable.

Thought I would provide my own experience for others to reference.

1st time antminer S1 buyer

Ordered: 1-15-2013
Received 1-20-2013 (Dallas, TX)

Nothing import related to pay
Well packed with foam padding completely surrounding the S1

I'll provide further technical related experiences on the support thread but overall I'm VERY happy.

On a side note I ordered a power supply the same day and it's still in transit out of California.  Had to run to the local Micro Center and buy a supply.

ordered 1 S1s on 1/15/2014, second on 1/18/2014.
both arrived today.
one has 1 Xed chip.  second has 2 Xed chips.

neither is reaching 180.  emailed bitmain. waiting for a response.

Most of he time you get xs is when they are not getting enough power
So make sure your power supplies are good
Just to test try powering the main blade only, that's the one with the small circuit board where the network cable goes in
Of you full os, then it's probably a power issue

An x doesn't mean the chip is bad
I've gotten a lot of xs on various different chips
Most times the hashing is steady around 180
Even though a few chips have xs
reboots don't fix it, Unplug it from power for 30 seconds and power it up again
Also if you cool them too much you get xs
Ideally 47-48c is perfect


What this guy says. Of my 100+, I have yet to have one with even one bad chip, so 2 in a row with problems makes me think PSU
PSU is good. LEPA G1200 
Xed chips are on system board.

Have you tried the latest firmware?  Some earlier firmwares had a bug where they would incorrectly report one or more bad chips.

Sorry to go OT but don't you have a group buy going for the avalons ?

Does not say much about your faith in that product if you are over here buying ants. Smiley 

Just sayin'

Why?
I buy all sorts of hardware, and sell all sorts of hardware. Just being manufacturer agnostic Smiley


Yeah. I get it. It would just make me wonder a bit if I was in that GB. Smiley

Canary -

I respect you greatly as a longtime leader in the group buys, but I have ten of these things, and bobsag3 has over 100 and long term we don't see this issue unless its power supply related.  First off the LEPA you list has 4 rails.  Do you know how the rails are split?  Have you tried a multimeter to make sure the power is good?  Running both ants off one a single rail off that PS would exhibit this behavior.  I had a buddy with a coolermaster and he had all sorts of issues with clocks and stability and we found out that was only giving him 11.1V on the 12V rail!  

Generally I see either all O or X on my ANTs, most have been up >2weeks.  The one I do have an occasional issue with does show random X and O spread across the chips and will drop 10GH or so but a reboot or two fixes it.  I plan on swapping the power supply if I see that again...

If you have a visa credit card they will send coins instantly.

Yeah that's my problem. Already have checking hooked in, have bought before, but I only have 1 Visa debit card and 3 Mastercards (1 credit, 2 debit). They don't accept Mastercard, and they don't accept Visa if it's debit. :/


Sorry to quote this so late in the thread but wanted to provide some Coinbase info:

No longer can you do a 10BTC instant buy per day on Coinbase. They dropped to 1 BTC instant buy per week.
Doesnt really seem worth the trouble or risk to associate a credit card with it anymore for this purpose.
