Back to the topic of BTC GUild pool. Cheesy

What's the time limit of calling the API? I don't want to run afoul of Cloudfare or any other DDoS protection you may have.

I do not recommend polling the API more than once per minute. It will allow a little faster, but there is really no need to slam it. No more than every 5 minutes is preferred if you're making an app that others will use as well.

Thanks! Minimum of 5 minutes it is then.

I'd speculate around end of August to the beginning of September.

Sounds about right to me.

what is going to take their place? cheap blades? or is ASICminer just going to stop making them and run out?

Avalon chips should be free and plentiful, and maybe, just maybe, BFL may have some kind of supply of ASIC miners. Until then people will be clamoring for a supply of anything they can get, and if USB Erupters is all that's available then there's a ready market for them.

Still working on the testing setup so I can more quickly confirm units are in working order so they can be packed & shipped. Unfortunately the test computer (trying Linux now that I've done 80 on Windows) is a bit outdated, so it's currently having an OS reinstall. In the meantime, I've been researching international sales methods that will not interfere with my current shipping routine.

Canada orders will likely be made available over the weekend. Other international orders should be available during the week, and will be announced at least 12 hours in advance. Please note that I am on UTC-7, so it is very likely that EU orders will occur in the middle of the night in your local time zone.

The first few orders did go out today. I arranged a special pickup for Saturday in order to talk to the postal worker so they are aware that I will have packages for pickup everyday for the next few weeks, so hopefully there will be a steady stream of orders going out starting Monday.

I don't mind the signature confirmation, but can I please get the warning turned off? It pops back up every time I login and and on every page change. It just won't go away!!

Sorry, the warnings will go away once I finish the orders I set aside for shipping today and start the next unit test batch.

I've added a warning to any accounts with an order of four or more units. By default, any order of 4+ units will require signature confirmation for delivery. If this does not work for you, please email me so I can make a note to exclude it when packing your order.

I can either order 1 now or 2 in about 10 days. I think I'll hold off until i can order 2 so there will be less shipping. Roll Eyes

I doubt that the demand for these will drop until:

People run out of Bitcoins/$$$ to spend on this.

or

Something better, lower cost per Mh/s, comes along that can be delivered at the time of order and doesn't cost more than $400 - $500.

The order for additional units was placed last night with friedcat. They should arrive on Friday, unless the 4th of July holiday adds *2* days instead of 1 to the delivery, or a random holdup occurs. The new batch will cover all current backorders, and will hopefully cover all backordered units that are ordered up until Friday. If the backorder queue starts getting "dangerously close" to the number of new units ordered, I will order even more to compensate.

My goal is to eventually have a reasonable (100-200 units) in on-hand inventory at any given time. The only thing preventing that right now is it's hard to judge what the residual demand will be once the first feeding frenzy is over.

Canary sold over 1000 in group buy #7 alone. Could be a while before the frenzy is over.

All bad orders from last night should be cleared up. A few people had a couple missing bitcents, or a slight overpayment. The current store payment processing logs any unmatched payments for manual correction. I will update the store later this evening (trying to setup a better testing array and shipping station). The update will include an extra category if you have a payment that doesn't currently match any order, so that you know a payment was received.

800 in stock and 0 FOR INTERNATIONNAL ORDER. COOL
WITH AMERICAN IT S ALWAYS THE SAME. do you think dificulty + delay for delivery.
internationnal order never receive before 2 or 3 week now = dont buy this.
what do you wait to answer to your PM Huh

??, since 3 days now

It is not trivial to ship internationally from the US. It is SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive, takes more time, and requires extra forms/labels to print for customs. I am not stocked/prepared to handle international orders at this time, which is why the news section, and posts in this forum, have stated that International Orders will likely not be available until at least July 5th. I did not respond to every PM I received about international orders (though I did respond to MANY) about it because I have already stated it will not be ready/available for at least another week.

+1

I have done transactions prior on ebay and elsewhere outside of bitcoin. Preparation is key. If you are not in the US, why not join a group buy, start a group buy, or list a price in the forums that you are willing to pay to have X amount of miners delivered to you. eleuthria will be very busy getting these orders processed over the weekend. Trying to add international shipping simultaneously would be madness. Give him a week or two and I bet he will be ready.
