How long for shipment to Asia?
The shipping for the prices listed above is USPS First-Class International Package Service which can take anywhere from a week up to a month (rare, but it has been reported) for international destinations. It is a cheap service hence why I can offer such low prices for international shipments.
Priority Mail International estimates delivery in 6-10 business days for most international destinations but can be delayed due to customs. This is a somewhat expensive service and is probably not worth it for small orders (<4-5 miners). I can do this at an additional cost; simply request it when you email me.
I suggest don't do First class or priority to International. You will get a few chargebacks as it doesn't include tracking. Not worth the headache in my opinion. There are always some buyers who just want to do this.
Be careful, unless you now something i don't know!
I appreciate the heads up. I've had success with Priority Mail Express (and regular Priority Mail) International but have never tried First Class International before this group buy. I did some research and it seems the consensus is that FC International is slow but usually reliable so I figured I'd take the risk and see if it works out. USPS seems to have also improved international tracking in the past few years (at least added international delivery confirmation) to some countries and sometimes the packages can be tracked through the respective foreign postal service websites using the same tracking number.
Yes it's somewhat of a risk but I shipped the majority of the units I sold both domestically and using Priority Express International (mostly due to one huge order for more than half of my units, haha) so I'm prepared to take the hit if any of the smaller international shipments get lost and use this as a lesson learned if I lose a ton of money. :p
I would probably require insurance on all international shipments if this ends up being a failure and I decide to try again in the future.
But so far all of the packages I've checked seem to be progressing nicely to the USPS international shipping center in NY.
