If you are recieving a unit in the UK be prepared, i just got hit for £400 duty Sad

That was also one reason for me to host it at ST. I wonder what happens when it will ship in 3 months. It's real value then will be much lower then... maybe even lower then the duty?

True. Something you have to build into your ROI model. Most are (I believe) hosting for a minimum of 6 months (I am) at various locations throughout the world (Washington and Iceland seem the most popular) and NO duty has been paid so far, but bring it back into the UK (EU) and import duty is due ... So, the big question is, what value should the miner be valued at when it gets shipped back to you, probably near zero given difficulty, but maybe a value customs will believe?
