Thought my pair of S5's would ship on 08 Jan. but got notice they shipped yesterday (via BitMain on Amazon).

Pretty sure the stuff on amazon is an unofficial reseller.

No, they were official Bitman sales of B2 & B3 (at a small markup.) with the same stated shipping dates.

The only ones I see on amazon are from three resellers:

The Bitmain direct sales on Amazon were about a week ago.  If you look back through this thread you will see the announcement.  There was a link from the Bitmain site on batch 2 for about two days.  They were about $485 delivered in the US.

Great way to sell dollars and buy BTC, even if the b/e will be a bit higher depending on electricity.

Yes, especially if you have an Amazon credit account with free financing for 12 mo  Cool
I have one coming from this buy, interesting point of origin is CONIFER, CO, US but the pickup location was Kansas City, MO. Well maybe they did make a bulk shipment to the US for this distribution.
