Maybe the solution is the price of 1 USD + 49 BTC?
We have proof of payment for 1 USD and customs are happy
Good idea. I would suggest 49.5 BTC + $ 39. We have proof of payment for 1 USD and customs are happy

Why friedcat not responding?
I ordered another Block Erupter Blade, since I paid then I have no contact with friedcat... 2 days...

This is not a single issue with BE blades and customs. IMHO friedcat might consider specifying more reasonable (from customs p.o.v.) value around $129.
This is not the solution. Customs has asked me for proof of payment via PAYPALL and the like. And the price of $ 1000 is not adequate proof. The solution is a $ 39 payment via PayPal. Customs show pictures PayPal orders and customs would accept as adequate proof of payment. It is definitely a solution.

What is the average uptime of a blade? Is it normal it reboots after 1.5 - 2 days of uptime? 
Does anyone experience this too?

If you are not a business, you can lose your proof of payment. The European Union does not have the duty of keeping such documents. You write that you ordered the toy example that generates random numbers to play Warhammer and fellows from China I bought you asking for shipping to Ireland. You do not have proof of purchase, because there you bought. The device is used for your fun, consisting of PCB + heatsink and is worth about $ 40. Besides asking for fast shipping, because you are downhill fans of Warhammer and the generator is you absolutely necessary.

My blade is in Customs (Ireland) and they are looking for a proof of purchase. How am I supposed to handle this? I PM'd friedcat yesterday but got no reply. Others who got their blades must have encountered this. Do you get an invoice from friedcat or tell them you payed in Bitcoin?
Most customs authorities operate the same way around the world, if they don't believe the customs declaration they ask for proof of purchase. I have gotten stuff from China before and been asked for proof of purchase but I had a paypal receipt to show, I have zilch to show for the blade. Any advice would be great because I am quite worried right now.

They have a invoice for 39 attached to the package.. It should be inside that transparent pouch where DHl puts the waybill..
Let the DHL team know about it.!
The problem is they don't believe the price. Unless the invoice you mention shows a higher value than $39 and details how much for the item and how much for the shipping, it's not going to fly with them. I'll mention it to DHL the next time I contact them but based on past experience I doubt they will accept it. Any idea what might happen if I can't produce a proof of purchase? Do they put their own value on it or maybe just destroy the item

Yes I agree. I think the value should have been put above $150 to be believable. Customs know that International shipping is not cheap, particularly express. May 23, 2013, 02:30:10 PM
Well, I am sure it is not a heating/cooling problem. I use 3x 12mm fans, two direct on the heatsink and one blowing air from aside for a good airflow. The heatsink stays cool and the blade shows a nice hasrate and efficiency. Could be a power issue... That idea I hardly believe, I use a proper PSU (500W). Or am I wrong?
That idea I hardly believe, I use a proper PSU (500W). Or am I wrong? Which power lines from the PSU are you using? A single molex line might have problems (since those usually run a harddrive or cdrom + might be lower gauge). Does your power supply have one of the 6 pin video card connectors? You should try using both of the + and - terminals if you haven't already.
- Good suggestion, I am gonna try that! Thank god the PSU came with a 6-pins GPU connector!
What is the average uptime of a blade? Is it normal it reboots after 1.5 - 2 days of uptime?

The blade also restarts if it is not getting work from the proxy. How are you connected to the network and what is the latency when you ping the blade from your machine.?Does anyone experience this too?
I had this problem when i was using a faulty Ethernet cable until i brought a new one.!
- Well I run the stratum mining proxy of Slush in windows. The DOS-box look fine to me: it is receiving get-work and sending proof-of-work. And also I setupped a backup get-work server in case when the local proxy is down.
PING Results:
10 packets transmitted, 10 packets received, 0.0% packet loss
round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 2.459/9.687/21.463/7.679 ms
Pinging seems ok, maybe slightly high for a local network. I can't check the cable right now, because I don't have a spare one. It will be the first thing I will do, if the 6-pins operation doesn't bring the solution to this problem.

How's your cooling solution? Mine have only rebooted when I didn't have adequate cooling.

My blade restarted after 3 days' continous mining.
I'm not sure if there are any problems with it. Hope it is ok.
