Used DHL and mine is at  

5   Clearance event   SHENZHEN - CHINA, PEOPLES REPUBLIC   02:47


Details =>  Clearance is pending as the shipment will be cleared by the importer's designated external Broker.

Should I contact Bitmain ?

EDIT1: Apparently they didn't properly fill all the documents .... hope this is not going to take forever to fix ....
EDIT2: No ones in the same boat ?.
EDIT3: I'm really pissed off ...

I have never been asked SSN or tax id either for any miner.  On the bitmain psu they shipped it at a lower weight then it was, I had to write UPS a check for that.    But I cant see what SSN would have to do with miner shipment.

If the value of the shipment exceeds a certain amount ($2500 I think? I can't recall) there's is some customs paperwork needed. Among other things they want importer's ID, e.g. SSN or FEIN.

That's good to know.  I have 4 on order so I will cross that limit.

Just got an update on my shipping that was to be dilivered on Wednesday.  Here is the update:

09/22/2015   8:22 A.M.   A valid ID # (tax, personal, deferment) required for clearance is missing. We're working to obtain this information.
09/22/2015   8:21 A.M.   The package is awaiting clearing agency review. / The package is at the clearing agency awaiting final release.

I hope this is not going to be a delay.


Give them a call and make sure to provide them any information they are missing ASAP.
Happened to me twice with KNC Jupiters and Spondoolies systems.
Caused a few days in delay and ended up costing me a few bitcoins in profit Sad

Thank you so much!!!  They are in KY and said that all they needed was my tax id or ssn.  I gave it to them and they said that they would release it.  Whew!  Thanks Again!!

I am just curious why UPS would need your SSN or tax id #. In the past they never asked for that information for my S3 to C1 shipments. My S7s are coming on the 24th, so far no hold up.

Same here, all my miners from Bitmain came UPS thru the KY hub and never had a person ask anything like that either?

Jeff's colo in OK matches lowest hosting costs, i'm at $75 per kw per month there. Might try him . His username on here is Sunbreak.

He was recommended to me by sidehack and has been good.

On another note, my s7 has not shipped yet.
Ordered on 9/08 via UPS. Hopefully it wont get held for more info as i'm not a fan of giving out my SSN.  Undecided

That is good news. I just thought in the past when others had problems like this the clearing agency was in China but I must have been mistaken. Did you have them shipped UPS or FedEx?

This was a shipment through UPS.  Whew!

I hope they do a price drop for batch 2 or I can't justify buying one.

Also interesting 21 announced their first product for sale to the public today, .17 J/GH
http://www.coindesk.com/21-inc-bitcoin-computer-developers/


I'm out ...at 13.5c kwh here in the USA....this boat don't float Sad

(In the wave of 20/20 hindsight I have 2 Titan(s) and a 100 amp service.....so even if I could swing it probably would not pay to upgrade to 200 amp service
even if the price was right ...so.......I guess it was not destined to be in either case with btc difficulty and price at this time in either senario) Smiley

Reality sucks Smiley



You could consider having your equipment hosted.  That's what I had to do starting back in February of this year.  I could not afford the electricity and I couldn't effectively deal with the heat when winter came to an end.  I've been with the Lee Group for about 9 months with a bunch of S5s and it has worked out well.  https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/lee-group1980-the-sales-of-first-batch-hosted-antminer-s7psu-included-934581

I'm also going to try my S7s at Toomim Bros this time around to see how that works.  http://toom.im/

The Lee Group Data Center will cost $2.90 per day for 1-S7
The Toomim Bros Data Center will cost about $3.23 per day for 1-S7

That does not sound good. I would say it's delayed and sounds like it has not left China yet?

Does not sound good but hard to say.  Sounds like must be his country since it shows Wednesday as delivery date.

But if it got that message and has not left China yet no that would not be good, as likely a longer fix.

I can confirm that they ship orders according to who got their payment confirmed first.
I ordered on first day, payment confirmed 06.09. I guess I got screwed by this, lesson learned.



I ordered on Sept 8th so it will be interesting in seeing how much longer mine ships after yours.

Don't Loose hope.  You can search online for a better rate or call the Electric Company and have them lock you in on a lower rate.  Need you in the game buddy!
