Hey all,
Looking for suggestions on who to use to obtain BCH with credit card so I can place order with bitmain?

cex.io does not service my state of New Hampshire.

Thanks!

Buy BTC on Coinbase. Transfer BTC to exchange site of your choice i.e. HitBTC

Sell BTC, Buy BCH on exchange then send BCH right to bitmain when ready

To anyone complaining about import taxes:

I'm paying 338$ per S9 in customs duties, FYI!

Please stop complaining ^^

I was going to order three S9's but it's very late in their life span now. That, and all these coupons coming up for sale (might have been available for long, I haven't searched previously) makes me wonder if it's really a good idea to purchase them now?

Question is how long it'll be until Bitmain comes up with something new, making the S9's I'd purchase obsolete.

I was thinking at buying a Jan batch of the s9, but what do you think? Q1 2018 will bitmain announce the new antminer?

Is it profitable to buy atm thinking that maybe its at EOL?

Got answer from mail forwarder that they will give me information on Monday.

I am trying to place an order for a few s9's currently and it's asking me to put my import number ein  vat and social security #...Anyone else in the states have to to do this?

fedex asks for it.

ups and dhl don't

My last order of 2 L3+'s for about $4400 I was called by UPS and asked for my SS or EIN before they would deliver. The miners were still in China when that happend.

I thought there was a threshold of 2500$ before it hits taxes? How can I pay them?

Nope.
I had to pay around 3% taxes on all my 7 orders with the exception of 1. I don't know how but 1 L3+ was delivered without any ICOD. Not sure why, somebody fell asleep somewhere I guess.

Is it possible to pay this duties online?

You can call a number to pay it it should be 502-485-2222
Keep in mind that even if you pay their STUPID system will not let the driver know that you already paid.
I don't know how that's even possible in 2017, maybe they are learning customer service from Bitmain....
So don't think the driver will just leave your package as you will have to call that number with the driver present to ask WTF!

Actually I have shipped my package to mail forwarder to reship it after to my country. I have contacted mail forwarder and I hope they will help me to clear my package. Last time I ordered Avalon 741 with no duties at all.

Has anyone had to RMA an S9?

I sent my Oct batch S9 (dissapearing hashboard) to their CA location 3 weeks ago.
They got it, took 3 days to verify that it was under warranty and dead silence since.

Of course their support doesn't reply much besides watching the ticket that doesn't change.

Bitmain bumped my Dec 21-30 order to Dec 1-10 too. Christmas came early I guess.

I'm more concerned than happy, together with the Jan batch selling forever this smells pretty bad.

I was thinking of buying the Jan batch S9, but this makes me uncomfortable
