so for the people that just want to buy 1 or 2 miners to start with,can we use are own usb hubs?, it dosent have to be the one in the 10x miner package?

Yeah, that should be fine. Just plug it right into one of your USB ports on your computer, and you should be good to go. The purpose of a powered USB hub is to both add more ports to the connected computer, and power the units connected to the hub.

For example:
The USB Block Erupters from ASICMiner are powered via USB. They don't have an alternative DC power source like the Gridseed does. Daisy chaining multiple unpowered USB hubs will add more USB ports to your computer, but your computer can still only supply a low amount of power for all the ports on the USB hub. Powered USB hubs fix this issue. (i.e. Plugging in multiple, and daisy chainning, surge protectors and extension cords to one outlet in your house doesn't supply more power. It only allows more things to be plugged in. Everything would still be running from the one circuit breaker on your house's electrical box.)

Gridseed uses USB for the purpose of data between the unit and computer, and gets it's power from an adapter/PSU. ASICMiner Block Erupters use USB for both the data and the power (in the similar manner you'd sync and charge an iPod at the same time).

Hope that clears it up some.

That was a nice explanation man!
Good stuff

how much stock do you have now?

Hi!

We sold through all our USA inventory, and have moved to our overseas warehouse. We have a 1-2 day turn around time on our orders form overseas and they are also sent overnight express.

In other words, regardless of where we ship from, they arrive about the same time to your door. One of the things thats make us unique is the ability to pull inventory from multiple warehouses with a 24 hour turn around time. Thats why we can guarantee it will be at your door in less then 5 business days or we pay you for your lost mining time.

We sold about 300-400 pieces yesterday. Even at an increased rate, we still have plenty of inventory

Wait, so which is it is it overnight delivery or 5-day delivery? I paid $40 for two units shipping thinking it was overnight, meaning I will receive my units tomorrow.

I ordered two units to check you out. As others have pointed out, the shipping seems to be a bit on the high side for multiple units. I could see maybe $20 overnight shipping for 1 unit, but after that I think you could still ship effectively for say an additional $5 per unit, i.e. 10 miners = $20 + $45 (9 additional) $65.

Hi, we are working to get our shipping cost down. With our current volume, this is coming soon. And as perviously mentioned, we will credit all customers for any shipping adjustment.

Stay tunned

Any chances of giving me a shipping break? I want to order 40 Gridseeds, and the shipping is coming to $800 for overnight shipping, which is pure insanity. Especially considering that I am 2 states away from you Tongue

The shipping cost really adds up, any chance of offering different shipping options, because it seems what is be charged far exceeds the actual cost to ship and it brings the actual cost of each unit well over $200...

@GAW Miners,
You guys should offer some sort of combined shipping. I ordered just one unit just to try it out and see how reliable you guys are. I like what I see, but those shipping prices once someone starts ordering in bulk is killer. Overall though, I think $189+$20 is still much cheaper than other sellers.

Wow! What a day!

Someone once told me that the best way someone can believe in you is with their checkbook. With a new order averaging every few minutes, its clear that this community is giving us a chance.

It's made it even more clear that we need to exceed your expectations, as the bar is high.

Words can not express our gratitude for your support today, we are humbled.

Thank you

So far my interactions with you guys have been great. Clear communication (email/phone) and good pricing. Looking forward to getting my Gridseeds :-)

I just got off the phone with Joe, and now feel extremely comfortable with GAW Miners. And no, for those wondering, I was not offered a miner for this endorsement.

The mistake I made was that I found an obit of Joe's cousin by the same name, but with a different middle name.

During the course of the conversation, I knew by Joe's demeanor that this is a straight-up endeavor. Joe offered a myriad of numbers I could call to prove his case, all of which I decline for the taking because I no longer needed proof of whether or not GAW Miners is viable, of which they are.

I now offer up my apology to GAW Miners for this misunderstanding, of which could have been a disaster, but they were right on top of it to nip this in the bud, unlike other Bitcoin miner suppliers we're all to similar with.

If I were a miner, I, too, would now order from them, having been rest assured that they're viable.

Thanks for speaking with me Bruno. I'm glad we were able to clear things up over the phone. Please let us know if we can help in any way
