With a small team it may take them a month to get 5000 miners in the mail, so I'm forcing myself to be patient (and also remain optimistic

) . Is the next thing we're hoping for a pic of a box of miners all individually bagged up? Then we'd at least know those bare-boards were processed.
yes, pics would be great.
my money is spent already, ...so, yeah, took the risk and staying optimistic.
