I thought buying direct they would ship much sooner but ordered batch 8 on Sunday still no shipping info.  Sounds like the same story others have stated....ugh!  They will ROI within 2.5 months as long as you ordered enough of them to beat the curve.  Bought mine at about $265 a piece, can't beat that.  Anyway home miners are almost nearly hobby now, most people don't have enough juice to power enough of them to run a true farm at home.
