So just placed my order for 2 units....my first ever miners... Grin

So it's on hold now, how long before Canann gets back to you normally for payment?

In my experience, I ordered towards the end of NA day, rushed to my bank for the wire, came back to post my receipt to Canaan. Payment was confirmed in 24 hours, surprisingly fast.

So I'm probably gonna pay with BTC, but haven't heard back from them. Do they send me an email asking how I want to pay?

I am using two EVGA 750 BQ 110-BQ-0750-V1 80+ BRONZE 750W Semi Modular Includes FREE Power On Self Tester Power Supply, I got them on sale for $50 each with rebate.

I just found this one but don't know much about the name: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817553031

its even cheaper with 100w less than the ones I got, still a good buy.

Thanks goose...will check it out....

I think I am in trouble as my order was before they changed price.

So they charged shipping but it is still a lower price.

I hope they honer it.

I will post back .

I sold 800 usd worth of btc today at 3400

So if price of btc drops I can use the money to buy cheaper coins

I'm frustrated that Avalon raised the price on their units, had i known they were going to do that I would have bought several more :|

Meh. With BTC up where it is I just ordered 1 more and yes the controller which is now $100. Nice part is:
a. Current price of BTC. We'll see what it is by the time Canaan sends the bill...
b. Is now FREE shipping so that knocks off a nice chunk of $

Do remember that if you are in the USA you better stay under $2,500 worth of miners ordered and delivered at 1 time unless you don't mind paying Duty.

Edit: Well waddayaknow -- Canaan has gotten better at doing the using-BTC part (so far). 1st, all orders are now manual so they (quickly) ask 'BTC or wire?' and even better my email reply was very quickly put into the Ticket system. Kudos for that.

Now to see how fast they give me the BTC amount and address to send to. Fingers crossed Wink

EVGA 1300W ATX psu is a good choice with 110/120V voltage.

Thanks buddy....so sounds like I can expect to add roughly $200 to the price, for all in...about 1K....

yeah I have been looking for a cheaper choice for you

so far a no go.

I appreciate the help Phil.....I've been trying to get away from cloudmining ala Genesis, but my buddy keeps trying to talk me out of this option. I figure a 40TH contract with GM is about 5k after 3% discount, course the advantage is no upkeep, but the disadvantage is all the drama going on right now with them and the "hack". As opposed to this, which for roughly the same price, get me 5 machines at around 5K for 36.5Th...and of course upkeep and power cost.....

No zuo no die why you try, u zuo u die dont be shy

I am surprised to find that Canaan bumped up the price now for both A471 and the controller.

Glad that I picked up four rigs and the pi in *USD* two weeks ago. Was hoping to pick up another rig and pi but no chance now Sad
