Are either of them your address?
No neither are my address, which they asked for and said they would mine directly for me, which hasn't happened.

Indeed DPD doesn't give a damn when you get you package. But ok, they are cheap!
$54 isn't cheap, at all.
Not really, no.
UPS will cost you 3 times as much (for express). I assume DHL is in the same league as UPS.

Just connected 6 Fury's to my PC and put them on an el-cheapo 360W PSU.
They are doing 8.2Mh/s. This is more than I've got with 20 Gridseeds.
I will keep them running till the second A2Mini comes in.

Yes exactly right

Cost-effectiveness comes from handling massive volumes in routine ways. Deviating from the routine is more expensive than just going through with the routine, even if it sometimes means to do things "inefficiently" on a micro level.

If I was doing it I'd just drive it, 44 metric tonnes of freight in one go, perfect.
Birmingham is just where it's national hub is. It's how they all do it in the UK now. If I send a letter to someone who lives a mile away, it will be picked up from postbox and taken to local depot, then it'll be driven 30 miles to nearest sorting facility, and then driven back to the same local depot for delivery :-) It's cheaper apparently

Very efficient!

I think DPD normally truck it out to Europe. By the time you've driven it to the airport and waited for it to clear security and whatever it is just quicker to drive it (or not in this case). Where I live we have a huge Amazon warehouse, Deutche Post trucks coming in and out all day. Often if something is OOS at Amazon UK, I can order it from Amazon DE or FR, knowing it'll come next day from down the road
I really don't understand why they transport it from London to Birmingham, seems to me a totally wrong direction if it goes by truck.

I really don't know, but I have seen small planes on airports with a DPD logo on it, so it's not complete nonsense.
This must be for really important parcels then, in which case it makes even less sense to have them idling on ground while waiting to get enough carriage for them.
Anyway, I'm in contact with my local DPD depot and Interlink now to find out where exactly my package is right now.

Seriously pissed at DPD now. Apparently, the tracking IS accurate and the package is dicking around in UK since Wednesday!
My package was kept for a day or two in Birmingham. I think they hold it until they have enough packages to fill a cargo plane.
I can't imagine that there aren't enough packages to fill a plane for 2 days. It's not as if DPD is operating an airport and planes and pilots and all that. This stuff is subcontracted out to air and ocean carriers who transport parcels from several carriers.
DPD also guarantees 2 days for Air Express.

CMR §23 V governs freight compensation for delivery time excess, so anyone ordering via Air Express and not getting their parcel in time can demand a compensation for the full shipping costs.

Cheap PSU's again, if they are getting hot they must be really inefficient

Right now I'm trying some Fury's c.q. Blizzard's, they work rather well when you don't overclock them too much.
Hash rate ~1280, HW 5 to 6%. I still have to measure the power usage.
Strange enough the WU is higher than the hash rate, must be some bug in cgminer 3.1.1 for Zeus.
The power bricks are almost melting, I have go out and buy some connectors to put them on another PSU.
Edit: Just measured the current and the Fury's take ~4.05A, this is more than I expected.
Edit2: They take ~3.50A with a different build of cgminer.
