can you please update us on escrow and shipping? at this point we will have to be highly trusting in you as they are going to from bitmain to your warehouse and then shipped to all of us or possible even stopping again before coming to us

This.

Again, why wouldn't you have the 700 pieces delivered to DHL HK directly?

I guess deal with Bitmain is that they ship to one address. This address has to be OP warehouse address.
Otherwise we would just buy it from Bitmain outselves.

Yes, they require a single payment and a single address to ship to. Shipping to HK is the easiest option. Shipping to my factory address in china would actually be more expensive since we would have to pay VAT.
In the HK warehouse we will split it according to the list and ship right away directly to every person who ordered. We will not be doing multiple bulk shipments to the east coast / west coast and split again there since we found out it will not save any money on shipping and just add more complication.
So If you ordered 2 miners, your miners will arrive with the main bulk order to the HK warehouse and shipped from there directly to you (which will take around 4 days).
Payment for shipping will be directly to the shipping company in HK, but we will be there with them to split the order and make sure everything goes smoothly.
We can write any value you choose on the box to make sure it goes through customs smoothly. You can also buy insurance for your shipment.
Warranty is given by bitmain directly. There is a warranty card in each box (they confirmed this point in writing).

Still looking for an Escrow solution. If anybody wants to send me a lead to a company that can handle it, it would help a lot. Currently all the escrow companies we spoke / met with refused to do it. They usually handle real estate deals.

Several of you already met me in SF and I have a couple meetings tomorrow. Whoever still wants to drop by and look at the papers / list / logistic plan is welcome to ping me this week and come.

We have 962 miners accounted for. I'm waiting to get a confirmation about exactly how many we can get.

Thanks for the update!
