Heads up Hosted customers. I've been having issues with speed and KNC just sent me an email saying that the speed issue should be fixed this weekend, if not, contact customer support.
Hope to see 500+ soon!
My local unit I ended up selling after mining for 10 days. There is still a huge interest in these units and I was able to sell it for more than I paid. Listing only lasted 1 day and someone picked it up locally paying with cash. I sold the unit to offset the cost of hosting and now I'm ready to sit back for 6+ months.
good luck!

You'd think they'd have tried a rubber band by now.

How is it that complaining about packaging makes it ok to switch from next day to a company that doesn't even fly domestic routes in the U.S. without customer approval?
Too many peeps in here were bashing UPSSo? Who gives a s*** "what people were bashing"? Like that is ANY way to justify their actions. Give me a break.
Transam808- yeah... would have been in your home hashing today if it was UPS
Hawaii is about the farthest you can get from sweden, and its here within 48 hours via UPS. Nobody courrier can beat that.
I like USPS, after that I'll go UPS, and have tried to avoid DHL like the plague. A previous delivery went bad some time back. That had been flown to Columbus, GA, then driven up here once, a note left, then subsequently there was a report the driver had returned 2 additional times. After he didn't show the second I set up a video camera covering the driveway. He never showed and reported he had. I won the argument with customer service but no way would I have chosen DHL ever again.
Then yesterday I find they couldn't deliver to my PO box. Not a good experience with Customer Service, not antisocial discourse but just that they couldn't deliver to a PO box and their delivery window as all day.
I expected the DHL driver today sometime between 8a and 9p. He called at 8:45AM and said he wasn't far away. He delivered at 9:15AM. Tall black guy he looks like he could play for the Knicks. This isn't a neighborhood he'd feel comfortable in, hell I don't and I'm Scotch/Irish/German/Dutch, well less uncomfortable after 20 years here off and on. The box was in perfect shape and although the fan had come loose I understand that almost always happens.
My shipment appears to be sitting in OH with the following status:
Under "Further Details":
and under "Next Step":
Is this something out of the ordinary, or do all international shipments to the US go through this?

I just hope it doesn't end up being seized by customs.
Here's the way it works. You order something. You get what you paid for. You're happy.
KNC's customers can be divided into two groups.
A. Those who got what they paid for.
B. Those who did not.
I, for one, would prefer to be in Group A.
By the way, those of us in Group B are aware that those of you in Group A are happy.

So according to bitcoinorama 2 weeks ago there where only 1000 left to ship? But since the updates there has already been 1085 sent out, and Monday back to 400 a day? Am I the only one that feels like I have been lied to?
No mate...and I can confirm that it's not just a feeling. Working weekends ...back monday? Those two don't gelYou have to understand that in most of Europe it's against the law to force an employe to work on Saturday and Sunday if that's not contracted in-front while hiring, which is not for most people. If it is contracted it's 30%-50% more wage/hour for every hour of overtime, and 100% more wage/hour for every hour on Sunday, but even with that higher fees that's only for companies who's business process demands non-stop working hours.
I also must say this...
When I paid for my Saturns, they were guaranteed to run at 125Gh/s each.
My slowest Saturn is running at 250.
I got my first Saturn on the 10th, so technically 10 days late... a 30% diffchange late.
I got double the hashpower in the end, which makes my ORIGONAL investment decision still far ahead of the shipment delay loss in diffchange.
I'm happy with KNC
Thank you.

Seems like this went unnoticed (at least did not see "news-54" mentioned for a few pages back):
https://www.kncminer.com/news/news-54
Seems there'll be production over this week-end. Here's hoping for my hosted 39xx being produced and going on-line next week.
Not sure if serious? https://www.kncminer.com/news/news-54

If they were working over the weekend, it would read:
"We will be back to full production
or
"We will be back to full production on
Nada happening this weekend, except KNC customers losing more BTC.
And the reason is probably they have to pay double-time over the weekend. But as it costs KNC nothing to be 3 or 7 days late BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD BACK ME TO FORCE THEM TO PAY COMPENSATION, WHICH WOULD HAVE FORCED THEM TO PRODUCE AS FAST AS POSSIBLE, they are being cheap and don't give a shit when the stuff ships. Save as much money as possible by working regular weekdays only, it's doesn't matter to them if it's a week or two late. AT LEAST IT'S NOT 1 YEAR LATE TM.
and? delivery times are very similar, maybe is DHL even slower, and reason for change of delivery company was in semi-destroyed boxes, not in delivery times. simple.
Similar?uhh, DHL is even slower. So, now I really don't understand, why they switch delivery company...
Nor do they.

Fact is that they haven't got a fucking clue and are running around late like headless chickens pumping out all manner of shoddy goods which wil arrive when it gets there by a means you didn't pay for.
The numbers don't add up. To a 5 year old.
I expect a miserable excuse about everyone drowning in sweat in their boxer shorts all week soon...but the fact is that piss poor planning leads to THIS.
My rig looks like being in process in that "factory" all weekend while there's no-one there. That in itself is a feat. Wouldn't you at least finish all work in progress, and pop in Saturday morning for them to be picked up?

Any guesses on when Sam comes out of hiding with his "I'm not dead" speech?

I've been saying this for ages. And everyone is like "Hey shut up man, what do you know?".And now we can see the 1000 figure on the 9th was a BS figure, but it seems like someone was used as a stooge to pass us that number to decieve us.
But the fact the factory don't work at the weekend, like I said I knew - the fact I have taken so much shit about that. Bitcoinorama, if he has any spine, had better make an apology about calling me a liar yesterday over that. If he wants to walk away with any credibility or integrity left, that is.

all 3 saturns arrived with the fans loose inside
wow, took longer to ill than Hawaii...

box/package itself is great for clothes or some dry food - but for expensive and precise IT equipment? no.
When I buy relatively cheep (Chinese, $150) empty PC server housings for my own needs, they come in with two cardboard boxes, one smaller inside another bigger divided by elastic Styrofoam inserts on every angle and side, with additional Styrofoam insert for top - when you close the first box to put in before you close the second. And that's for cheap server housings, you should see the packaging for Fujitsu-Siemens standard servers, they are work of art. You can jump on them without damaging the server. I wonder how can it happen that IT professionals never unwrapped any server in their career.
It was intended to be humorous. A joke, just like this entire experience.
