It is annoying as I want 1 more and I am waiting for the first one to show up as paid before I order the second one.

I never place orders over 2500 from china as I had a few tie up in customs for weeks.

So I figured I will place them 2 or 3 hours apart. SInce they have had this cancel your order error happen for close to 2 years to hundreds of buyers I knew to wait before the second order.

So if this sells out before they tell me the first one clears I won't be able to order a second one. Pretty annoying.

That is irritating.

Interesting strategy breaking the orders up to avoid customs delays.

It's been a while since I've ordered from Bitmain. Do they declare the full purchased dollar value to customs? I thought that they declared less (like the materials value or something).

Maybe the hang up in customs you saw was just a random event. There was a warning when I ordered indicating that spot checks can result in a delay of a couple of weeks.

I'm planning on buying more too, but I'm splitting the order because I don't have enough BTC in my wallet Wink

I guessed wrong about the price and underestimated. Transfers from Coinbase take forever, and I don't have a high enough instant buy limit to make a difference.

Maybe I can scrounge up a coupon from someone while waiting. I'll probably end up with new orders in batch 2.
