Instructions For Sending Your Avalon Chips To TerraHash

If your order contains any products for which you need to send us the Avalon Chips for assembly, please follow these instructions:

From TerraHash's website on the assembly-only product order page:
"After placing the order, please send the relevant amount of chips to us. Instructions for sending chips will be available after your place the order."

However, no "instructions for sending chips" have been made available. We are still waiting for them and, now that it seems chips are shipping, anyone with assembly-only orders is understandably curious. I think an update with instructions for sending chips should be made available, as they stated.


Terrahash, we really need an update now, especially for assembly order which has chips already shipped (me)

- Where should chips be shipped to?
- Are you still sticking to two weeks turnaround time from the time when you received chips? Would your board design and assembly line be ready?

Assuming two weeks for chips in transit, that means I should be mining in FOUR weeks? (finger crossed Smiley



No Terrahash we really don't need to hear from you, because your website clearly states:

Terms and Conditions: Shipping dates depend upon when we receive the chips from you. Once we have your chips, we will ship your order within 2 weeks.

Also your website has your shipping address where to ship chips so that is covered also.



Then they are not likely ready for your chips since they just ordered Boards that would make perfect sense.



Then they are probably not going to hit the two weeks turnaround time.
That's why we need confirmation from Zefir.
From knight's second visit pics, it seems like the prototype boards that they have is the same as the first visit. How does that reflect to the real timeline nobody knows.

Zefir First Batch Shipped.

Looking forward to Terrahash confirming their chip shipment soon Smiley (and also getting back to the email I sent them Tongue)


What happens in the - hopefully unlikely - event that Avalon can’t deliver the chips or they get delayed indefinitely?


This will maybe not happen Smiley


Update: 1st batch shipped

I got a a status update from Avalon - the first batch of chips has been shipped, including DHL tracking number. It should get delivered this week.



Important reminder: If you have chips ordered from the first batch and did not yet enter your shipping address and locked it - do it soon! Orders without finalized shipping data will be postponed.



When did they order?

Sent from mobile

They ordered on April 19th

This is the second time in the last week we have seen someone get their order of chips within 93/94 days from order

While not officially a trend, it is 2 out of 2, so Terrahash will get their first order of chips on August 13th (+/- a day)
Which means they may start shipping August 27th
Which means we should see product last week of August, First week of September.

Plan accordingly

So.. looks like these things are not ready, that's fine, i thought you already made and sold these. Ah well, im going to save my moneys in btc.

what is the ETA on the finalization of these boards? when can i put an order down?..

on the other hand terrahash, care to do some trade? eg: had full of chips for a couple of boards? probably not worth getting 50 chips for 2 boards, you'd enough to make 1 more board and some..
If not, i could throw the 6BTC at you for 2 boards, i think that little extra could help

Ether way, i need to get up the BTC and/or the chips...

I would recommend giving them a call and asking. Since I don't have a case on order, it didn't occur to me to ask that question. They answer their phone. Give Amir a call.

I have tried to call numerous times on different days/times during the posted office hours and I never get an answer.  You got his cell number, knightlife?  Wink

We are glad to announce that we  have secured two additional early-may Avalon ASIC pre-orders, each for 10,000 chips. With these additional 20,000 chips along with our own May 10 and May 16 orders, we have enough chips to ship all the orders received till now in the first batch.

late june <>  early-may


hmmm ....

so if avalon isn't delivering all batches together ... order number will be again the point of truth ...

Well, I guess that helps explains terrahash's reluctance to release the proof of "early-May" purchases.

Actually, they do have 20k more bulk chips on order. I noted it in my first report. Amir stated that they made an arrangement to purchase another 20k from an early may order of an individual who lives in the Bay Area. He stated that they paid a premium for those 20k extra chips, but they wanted to make sure that we would be able to get our boards done at the same time. They really seem to be doing whatever it takes to make sure that they stay within the projected mid August delivery date. I did not photograph the invoice for that early May order, because the invoice belongs to the original buyer. I don't doubt that it is happening though. There is no reason to make such a thing up when they already have 40k chips on order.

Amir, if you have a moment, can you shed any additional light on this for the forum?

...
I confirmed that all boards will come with one I2C cable. Full cases will have everything needed to run the miner (if you selected to add a PSU). For those of us who did not buy a case, we will need to purchase a PSU (of course), PCIe splitters (If you're running more than 4 boards), and a USB A to Mini B cable.
...
6. Non case purchasers will have to purchase a PSU capable of powering all of your cards (with a little overhead left.. my preference), PCIe splitters (for more than 4 card miners), and a "USB A to Mini B" cable to connect the host board to your PC or Raspi.

It would be nice to get more details on this from Terrahash ... We want to know if customers who ordered full case but without PSU ($900 for DX Mini case or $1200 for DX Large) will have everything needed to run miner except PSU.
I want to make sure that I can start mining as soon as I receive my DX Mini (ordered without PSU because I already have one powerful enough that was used for GPU mining) or I need to order PCIe splitters. If you ask me it make sense to get the PCIe splitters as part of the expensive case but ... I may be dreaming ....

I would recommend giving them a call and asking. Since I don't have a case on order, it didn't occur to me to ask that question. They answer their phone. Give Amir a call.

Has there been any information from TerraHash about where, when, and how to send them chips from a group-buy for assembly only orders? I've opened a ticket asking about it, but haven't heard anything yet. I've also searched around the forum and the TH website.

Is anyone else doing an "assembly only" order with TH? Have they sent you any instructions on sending them chips?

Same situation here with no information from TH. I'm in zefir group buy and chips should be here anytime soon.
