Fully Assembled Unit:
The fully assembled unit, including all necessary hardware, is $133.5, to be paid in BTC.

Does this price reflect per 16 chip unit?  Or per any amount of chipped unit?

You have to have your own chips or have participated in one of the group buys on this thread. That price is only for assembly with YOUR chips.

I understand you have to buy the chips now and pay for shipping and assembly later.

My question is do I pay $133.5 for each 16 board chip?  I.E. If I buy 64 chips and want them all assembled will it cost me $133.5 X 4?

Thanks

If I understand correctly then Yes.

That $133.50 is the cost of parts(except the ASICs) and assembly of a single K16. You buy the chips now. Once all the orders are in, Steamboat will email those that need to pay for additional services(shipping, assembly, testing, hosting)

You have answered YES to the OP's question here when in fact I think you should have answered NO.  The OP is asking if all they have to pay, in total, is $133.5 for each 16-chip board. Whilst you are correct in saying that $133.50 is the cost of parts except the ASIC's, and your intended answer is fair, this is still rather confusing to the OP.  The answer is that it will cost 1.376 BTC for 16 chips PLUS AN ADDITIONAL $133.50 for the assembly.

No he understood me correctly, perhaps could have worded it better but i got the point.  See bolded above.  

To summarize.  Not including the BTC you must purchase for the chips.  You also have to pay $133.50 x (64/16) assembly.  I.E. each assembled 16 board will cost you $133.50.

Thanks everyone for clearing it all up.
