Are thumbs being sent separately from board orders? Are all coming from AUS or will USA orders come separately?

Thanks,

Read a few pages back and look for Barntech and Bobsag3's posts.  

Thumbs shipping first at least for non-US orders is what I gathered.  
bobsag3 is handling US shipping and will be testing each unit before shipping.  Lots of people chimed in saying they want bobsag3 to do a reasonable amount of testing of the units before he ships them to us in the US via UPS. Much better to wait 2 days more than to get a bum unit that we'd have to send back to Australia or China. Bobsag3 is based smack dab in the middle of the USA so it should only take a few days to get it from him after he's done with testing.

Bobsag never said he was testing each unit nor is that necessary....at this point I don't think anyone here wants to wait another few days while every board is tested prior to shipping.   I'll settle for an hour or to on a reasonable % and just expect that a few may need to be replaced.  I'd rather risk a few days of not hashing on 1 board than have to wait a few days for an entire orders worth of boards. 

At this point we need some reasonable testing and boards in hand.  It would take WAY too much time for every single board to be tested and that time is very valuable at this point (difficulty rise is coming, again!).
