There hasn't been any info on how to specify how to have your chips delivered. Just assembled. So just hold tight and I'm sure we'll hear more when the chips are closer to arriving.
tldr
can someone point me to a post which shows where we are supposed to declare shipping intentions / assembly options
i have placed an order for assembly of some of my chips and need to ship the others

Would it be a problem if I ordered the chips now, and then later upgraded to a Fully assembled unit?
That's how it works. Pay for chips now and when your batch is closer to delivery you will be given the option to pay for assembly. Follow the instructions in the OP to place a chip order.

Just mail steamboat if you have questions. He's probably too busy atm to read all the posts on here. Don't know if he posted his e-mail her before, so I won't post it here, but the people who already ordered chips do have it.
The inquiries are mounting.... 
Ah well, they have a tendency to do that.
Often followed by responses, and then more inquiries … spinning wheel, round & round
Apparently there is some impatience sprinkled on the wheel too.

Finally got my order in. I was worried I might not make it before the deadline. Order #100000125 for 4 miners sent! If I have spare chips (I bought 4 extra) will they just ship along with the miners?
I'm hoping to have some singles made with my extras...
Hopefully they just ship them along with my assembled units. I'm sure they will.
avalon chips are out of order...so does the order still apply?
They have always been "out of stock". The 10 week lead time means they are being manufactured before Avalon ships them out. The order still applies
True, they have always been "out of stock" since there IS a lead time. However, as far as I can recall, there used to be a "Buy" button on that page that allowed you to "pre-order". chips. That isn't there any longer.
If you would travel 1 page back in this thread, you will find this...
Sooo I guess this means those of us in Batch 6 won't be getting them?
Found an explanation:
Avalon shop has some maintenance or so.
"We do however need to bring the site down within the next few hours to upgrade for trade-in orders. So if you are running into problems ordering chips and/or viewing orders please do not panic, we expect this update to finish by later tonight ( EST time. )"

I've not seen specific confirmation from anyone that the "out of stock" / lack of buy button was caused by their website maintenance--which they expected to finish two nights ago, and but it still says out of stock.
Can anyone speak to whether it's a website maintenance issue, or our batch 6 is not going to happen? Steamboat?

Earlier he said we could either get them shipped to us or get a refund on them, I'm not sure if that's still the plan.

Paid for two batch 3 miners, order #100000124 
Process was really smooth, thanks for putting the time in Steamboat!

I just sent BTC for 32 chips.
Thanks!

Thanks!

Do you have a previous order in? If not, are you just hoping that none of the chips are faulty?
I'm willing to gamble that all of the chips will be functional. I thought I read that every batch ships with extras in case of damage and that yields were extremely high to begin with.

Seeing that he offers testing, I would assume if there were chips that need replacing, it would be done before you receive your unit. Steamboat to clarify?

The chance of chips actually being faulty is extremely low. This is a low complexity design to begin with, on an old, tried and tested process node with some of the highest yields in the industry. Avalon chips are tested before being shipped. During shipping there are no pins that can bend or break. Even if by some miracle he ends up with a faulty chip, steamboat has explained that people will be able to buy additional chips to replace faulty ones out of a reserve amount. Out of all of us with extra chips there will be chips left over that we can get a refund for from steamboat that can be used in just such a case. Steamboat works on an assumption of a 1-5% faulty chip rate. My guess is that the DOA rate will be a fraction of one percent.
We're paying now so that everything is ready to go when our chips get here.
Appreciate the good communication and the website looks pretty good.
Can I ask why we're pre-paying for assembly with such a tight deadline? Are you mass ordering the part at the end of June? I wasn't expecting to cough up bitcoins this quickly and it's not always a quick turnaround to find coins
Several other members have expressed similar opinions. A response would be appreciated. Can I ask why we're pre-paying for assembly with such a tight deadline?
