You can ship by sea minimum one pallet and not less, even then you can have problems to find transportation company

As working with a logistics company once I can say most don't want to mess with little loads with a one time customer.  They will charge per space taken up (Weight also factors in).  The companies that do can save you some as they get bulk discounts.   But you have to be worth their time setting up a new client.  One small miner box is not worth it for them.

If you were ordering bulk i could see saving money scheduling this.  But I honestly think you are best off with going with shipping from a mining company.   I don't see you beating them on buying one miner.


That will cost more than UPS ?

You will have trouble beating the standard companies unless ordering in bulk and shipping in bulk.



The only option i see as far as reducing with 1 unit is if you use a hosting company in a cheaper place to ship to.  But that loses your "free" electricity.

It will take months, enough maybe to make them less valuable.

And it might be so expensive that it might hurt the value of the miners.

I guess it might be cheaper travel to China and buy and ship them by air.

I want something + i don't pay electricity pay for it

+ uninterrupted free will chain (meaning that you didn't use coercive force to get the money for your buy, and that all intermediaries did what they did freely) = Legit Trade.

Shipping something which weighs quite a bit is not viable when shipping via boat.

Hello i want to buy some hardware to mine bitcoin from newegg or amazon around 20 lb and

Which hardware? On Amazon, the prices for miners are often very expensive! Watch out!


I want to buy this AntMiner S3 441Gh/s ASIC Bitcoin Miner for $284.00
http://www.amazon.com/AntMiner-S3-441Gh-Bitcoin-Miner/dp/B00LT97EKA/ref=pd_sim_pc_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=1HFK5G87SYD02PJD8X24

13.2 pounds that realy cost a lot

And this PSU
http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Series-Modular-Bronze-ATX12V/dp/B00ALK3KEM/ref=pd_bxgy_pc_text_y
6.2 pounds Hoho ho i will be poor after that if i ship them with UPS or Fedx

It's good that you are taking care of overall cost of this Antminer. Are you sure that it will mine for you back what you invest in?
I would recommend to check here: http://www.coinwarz.com/calculators/bitcoin-mining-calculator/

When you put 440GH/s you will see that you can do monthly 0.16334427BTC in current difficulty. You need to add what you pay for Antminer + PSU + for electricity.

Are you aware that you can buy Antminer S5 - newest Bitmain miner directly from Bitmain now?

Why do you want to ship it by sea? It's not because of the recent spate of air accidents is it? The chances of your miner going missing due to some aircraft malfunction is much, much lower than the chances of it being lost at sea. I've seen what happens to shipping containers when the seas are rough and it ain't pretty.

did you know that antminer will cost 280 $ and the cost of shipping 10 Kg will cost me 420$ and what you think if the shipping
cost more than one antminer

You will need to find the cheapest shipping option available (which may be by sea, as you said) and decide whether the savings are worth the money you will miss out on while waiting for the hardware to arrive. If one option earns you more money than the other, then go with that one. Also, perhaps you need to reevaluate your decision on buying the Antminer device. It may not be financially feasible for you to invest in, given the cost or time of shipping to your current location.
Just make sure you have your parcel covered and even if it gets lost you will get your refund, i don't see an problem here at all?

Problem is timeline.  A lot of sea/ocean you send in a container... it takes quite a long time depending on destination.  If it's a small sea... maybe not.  Across ocean... long time.   

Again all depends where from and where to. Also shipping company chosen.  Most will take care of all this (UPS, FedEx, etc.) and you are not involved in logistics.

Well it would be nice if OP could post details about countries.
