But now they're charging $135 (USD) for UPS shipping. Such Wow not.
They are charging me £214 for my S3 delivery to the UK + the import duty + VAT @ 20%
I know I cant compete in mining BTC which I why I have stuck with the alt coins and trading them like mad to earn BTC.
I can see the end is nigh for me mining, this will be the last batch of miners for me.
With now crazy prices and DOA miners from the last batch of S3's I bought it's time to get out
Are you sure? When I add a pair of S3's to cart for UK it gives me:
0.65 via DHL or ~0.42 via UPS. That should be £144 or £92.
The import duty is usually £7 via UPS or DHL and is paid regardless if you order a box of air or a box of diamonds - its a handling charge.
The VAT @ 20% is charged by the government and is nothing to do with Bitmain.
