Update from Group 1.  After driving half way across the country (not really, only about 50k) I tracked down the first package and the first 50 have arrived!



As you can see I have arranged them all spitting on top of the sticky labels of their owners ready for me to stick in boxes (not in camera shot).

The second lot is still in Auckland with customs.

"By the way" - i'm guessing you'll *place* the order as soon as the minimum of 50 is fulfilled. How long does the shipping (from the manufacturer/seller to you) take?

That is the general idea, in reality Friedcat is quite busy and sometimes takes a bit of time to accept the bitcoins (I need that Futurama picture of Fry say "Shut Up And Take My Money").  In practice it seems that there will be a lead time of 1 - 2 days and I will most likely keep it open with a countdown.

As far as the shipping from ASICMiner to me, the DHL website says 5 to 10 working days.  I currently have 2 packages from ASICMiner coming to me since last Friday and I will post here when I receive any of them.  International shipping is a bit of a random thing though.

16/50 Paid now,

In other news the first 50 devices for batch one are somewhere between where I live (Rotorua) and Auckland and the remaining 65 have just left Hong Kong.

Any sites with easy to use instructions on how to start mining with these things for noobs?  I'm talking very basic instructions like what is a conf file and why do I need to set it up. Thanks

why do international buyers have to pay an extra 0.6 BTC ?? what are you shipping them by? rocket from your ass?
sounds like a rip off

I'm assuming that it has to do with customs duties?

And I'm also assuming that if I'm in the USA I'd still need to pay the extra 0.6 BTC???

From me?  Yes sorry, each time I order a block of 50 of these it is close to 10,000 USD in value and if it gets locked up in customs because I don't do things correctly..... it is just not a chance that I am willing to take with a pile of other peoples money.

Two reasons;-

1. I don't intend to skip on paying taxes/duty/customs fees.

2. I am not an unpaid ASICMiner worker.

Besides, they don't HAVE to.

I need to know if you can ship to Switzerland before buying.

I am shipping a few there at the moment, I have spotted no additional problems.
