Is the old model smaller, or is there just more padding in the new packaging?

very good padding in the new box

This is Avalon answer to damaged in transit batch 1 units IMO

Padding is really good and tight in the second batch. Should survive most drops

Some people are stating that their package originates in Beijing China with DHL.... long way from Shenzhen/Hong Kong

That is correct,

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1610260

Batch #1 shipped with a DHL label that stated HK as the origin, Batch #2 lists the Beijing ChaoYang District, China.

In both cases they use BEIJING FEIXIANG CO LTD as the forwarder

By the way, I forgot who asked but these are the dimensions of the new box, compared to the old box:



Old box: 54 x 46 x 27
New box: 58 x 56 x 32

Yes but its second day of that.
They generated it ofline, if they would do it online i would see it in tracking system

unfortunately it does not work like that, if you want to ship with DHL from China, it's easier/cheaper to hand off your package to a transit company (a psycho in a white van) that drives your package from Shenzhen to Hong Kong and drops it off there at the DHL hub

It's only once it gets scanned by DHL that you'll see real tracking:

Congrats mrb! Odd that most seem to be getting tracking numbers prior to delivery, I received none.

They do it by adding the tracking number to the order, in the web store. Then the web store sends the update via email. Check your spam folder maybe.

One of my Avalon units (batch #2) was delivered today Jun 27 by DHL, to the Los Angeles area.

Ordered Feb 2, 2013. Paid 76.7 BTC (it was one of the orders affected by the walletbit bug: I was charged and paid 0.5 BTC, then sent the remaining ~76 BTC later in the day). After creating numerous (unanswered) tickets, my order was eventually added to the store in mid-June (order #108xx). I was emailed the tracking number yesterday. It travelled from Beijing to Los Angeles in 48h. Was not stopped at customs. Declared value = $500. Package weight was 16 kg (but declared as 0.5 kg on the shipping label). Avalon unit weight = 13.5 kg. It is a black chassis. Very few signs of use (slight traces of dust).

Out of the box, cgminer was configured as is, confirming the know fact that Avalon mine with the units (I think for burn-in, which I don't mind):
Code:
pool1
- url: stratum+tcp://stratum.ozco.in:80
- worker: avalon.default0
- password: 12345
pool2
- url: stratum+tcp://au.ozco.in:80
- worker: avalon.default0
- password: 12345
pool3
- url: stratum+tcp://mining.eligius.st:3334
- worker: 1AYdAw8CcrQ2wx55LTbFHRn5bxgNZhaRLW
- password: 12345

I am still waiting for my other batch #2 unit ordered on Feb 18.

So ill see it from honkkong, but he drives there longer than 24 hours.
It makes me crazy.

It's all to blame to the fact that all the white van drivers are psychopaths
