Do you think the T17 38Th/s for 1145USD is a good price?

Well 2 t17e cost 3194  plus  shipping and trump tax  will do 106th

https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=000201909090947096086cx515TP0659

3 t17 cost 3435 plus shipping and trump tax will do 114th

https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=00020190911152351284Iy546I9c063C

either deal arrives nov 11-20

of course  3 s9k  cost 789 plus shipping no trump tax and do 42th

https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=00020190911155155939FluJlFo406C8

if you and two friends order a total of 9 s9k's    you get   126th  in 2 weeks or so.  cost is 2367  plus shipping  no trump tax if 3 orders to 3 different addresses

very interesting set of choices to make here.

I will wait to get some gear in before I order again.   my inno comes in a day  my s9k's ship in 9 days.    that is 50 + 54 = 104.

Was looking at the t17 38th model. It is still available may get it later today.

I am waiting on some ebay auctions on my current miners - if they sell then I will buy one or two T17's - if they are still available.

Not 100% sure yet.  I also ordered a unit from Varispin Tech to try out.  48-53Th @3000w.  That should arrive this month.  Wasn't thrilled with the efficiency, but it was better than two s9's, and at the time of order, it was easier to buy than anything on eBay (scams), (and I didnt have enough btc in my wallet to order from Bitmain yet).

In short, I have 6plugs.   Currently running one s17 56th, one s17 pro 50, and one s9i.
On order, one Varispin Starlight miner (sept), one S17e (nov).

I got one S17e for Nov shipment.

Although I like the price of the T17's, I'm trying to maximize TH for my home set-up, at the best efficiency, in the least number of units.

My physical set-up can handle 3 units in regards to power supply and heat exhaust.  To run any more than 3 units, I'd have to do more electrical work, adding a sub panel, etc... and getting exhaust ducts out is kind of a pain, so really dont want to do any more.

And I should be able to sell my current units on eBay for the same price I pay for a new one from Bitmain.
Once this arrives and I sell the pro-50, I'll look at swapping out the next unit.

The shipping company should be contacting you concerning that - both times I had to pay, I was contacted by DHL - both times were for about 300 worth of fees. The first one was on about 8k worth of miners and the second time was for one miner that was 1400.

the rest of the miners I bought were under 1k each and I paid no fees for those. yet...

still debating on whether to order another T17 for 1145, shipped will be about 1300 and with tariff it will be close to 1650. and for a unit that wont be here till December.

Thank you.

The Antminer S17e and T17e will be released in three batches and will be available for sale on Bitmain’s official website according to the following timings...

Thanks for the heads-up.

My email showed up overnight.
And, began refreshing the Bitmain page at 7am my time, and the S17e's came available again.

So I placed my first ever order with them, and completed my first ever payment for an item with btc.
Broke that cherry.

Now, my only remaining question is...... how do I handle the import/customs issue?  Ive never done that before, but have til Nov to figure it out.  I know I'll have to drop another $700 tariff fee. But what do I do from here for the customs part?
Any help/guidance will be greatly appreciated.

Plus it doesn't matter where its shipped from, its where its made that matters. So unless they are actually making the circuit boards and assembling the miners in Malaysia then surely they'd have to declare it as made in China.

It's where it's assembled. They assemble them in Malaysia.

Think of it like care. Parts coming from everywhere just like parts on the miner. Where it is built is where it is from. (granted I know like VW will assemble in mexico but yeah)

I had a buddy with a LOT of coupons. They are all 'expired'. So that route may not be around anymore.

I have been using ,buying and selling bitmain coupons for a long enough time to understand how this coupon game operates, but without having to go into a lot of explanations, as long as bitmain does not have a ton of gears sitting around, there will be no coupons circulating around, so if you want to use coupons to buy bitmain gears you got to wait for the next bear market which may take another year or two to start.

He was dorked and pissed off to say the least. So double-check on the Bitmain site, they may just 'wandered off' to 'dead coupon land' or something.

I'd check but have not bothered with the KYC stuff in that nothing has been available that makes sense in any way from Bitmain since that was added to their site.

yep, it has been that 'lean' indeed, the USA tariff was just driving a stake through my heart of the already dead mining dreams, due already to price and difficulty. Sad

They probably just forgot to delist those coupons, it is not like they can send you an expired coupon and say oh it's not our problem, when the coupons expire they kind of "vanish" , you can't use them, you can't send them you can only view them on the expired coupons tab.

long shot, but anyone has a coupon that does not plan on using?

I wish I had one - Bitmain has not given me one for almost 6 months, even though I have ordered nearly 10 miners this year.

that made me remember - want to see something funny? go to ebay and see how many bitmain coupons there are.... that expired in March.... They still list them, why? hoping people buy without realizing they are expired?

no, I'd guess they probably need to the MOQ for a (Malaysian) company to make them for BM in a timely fashion. No doubt costs BM more and they don't want to spend that to have a more made to be 'in-stock' from Malaysia.

That said, ja guess is their way to try and force sales (and tariff penalty) to those made in China...
