3 btc xD you ppl are sick. Casual person will never get ROI from this. Anyways GL.

It's a good investment really. You can mine any, more profitable scrypt coin or you can mine litecoin that has a bright future.
I'd keep it myself if I didn't need faster cash.

Bitmain warranty doesn't transfer with re-sale. If you're offering a warranty does that mean you are offering to create the support ticket with Bitmain, receive the part and then ship it back to the buyer?

No, I'm not willing to do that, I  don't think anyone would. I can provide the original invoice if that'd help but if it's impossible to transfer the warranty then consider it without.

I have available one L3+ miner with a APW3+ Power Supply included.

Brand New, Sealed Unopened. Original invoice provided.

It is located in Europe and I have already cleared customs so it's custom Free within EU.
FREE shipping within EU with DHL EXPRESS or similar courier.

Price is 3BTC or equivalent of that in Euro bank transfer or LTC.

Thank you.

Some actual photos of the miner with the power supply here: http://imgur.com/a/v6iB1

Hey my L3+'s  just came, the customs ask me what is the value of the package?

Did Bitmain write any value on the box or inside it??

Thanks a lot!

anybody? it's kinda urgent, thanks a bunch guys!

Check the email they sent you when the order shipped. They have attached a pdf with the invoice with seals and signatures and everything.

Important guys.
Who has purchased a miner in European Union? Has anyone cleared customs himself without a customs agents? The gang of import agents and couriers keep telling me that I can't do the procedure myself for items that expensive. I can't find any ference of that on the internet.
It is pretty simple, when you have all the necessary information that Fedex for example should give you.
You can ask Bitmain or who ever you are buying from the customs TARIC code.
See your country's customs' web page for more info.

I've had easy time so far using Finnish Customs' e-services. https://tulli.fi/en/e-services

Thank you for the reply

I know the TARIC and Bitmain provided me with the invoice with seal and signature and everything. But I'm trying to avoid the broker fees fedex is charging me to clear it. 60% of the item price. For the PSU alone worth 100euro they charge me 140euro lol.
Greece is a 3rd world country mate unfortunately. We don't have a customs webpage. But EU rules should still apply. If in EU you can clear it yourself no matter the worth you should be able to do it here too and they're trying to scam me telling me I can't.

About custom clearances in Europe and more specifically the EU. I'm located in Greece. Assholes in FedEx are trying to force me their own customs agent with extreme high charges. They sent me an invoice for ~600 euro for items worth 1360dollars!! 60%!!!
When I told them I'll clear it myself they told me I can't because the item's worth is too high. I call BS. You can import cars ffs. I've seen people here from all over Europe that cleared customs themselves. All EU has the same rules and laws.
Now I have to pay them a visit myself to kick their asses. Nah I won't do that. Heh.

Thanks for your reply bro, I told him to DHL lets see that will be happening tomorrow, I will update here, And please if anyone know about this problem please reply here

I think DHL is trying to scam people all over the world. A friend of mine got some unrelated stuff (vga ports, cables etc.) from China with DHL and they also told him you can't import these if you're not a business and they said they can clear customs themselves for an extra cost. He really needed the stuff and they scared him a bit so he paid. I'm in South Europe.

The other more profitable coins are much harder to turn to fiat currency though, aren't they?
Excuse me if I'm wrong, still a newb waiting for my July batch for my first miner.
Newb question. The 500Mh/s that it mines litecoins, does it mine with 500MH/s other scrypt coins too or the hashrate is different?

Its important to check if the coin is on good market like poloniex.com or btc-e.com. Poloniex is best, no problem with trading any coin they accept.

Yeah pretty much figured. For example CHNcoin is almost 3 times more profitable than LTC but nowhere to actually echange it with a more popular crypto to sell it! Yep BTC-E is my favorite!

I don't know what about in your country but here is still July 13th.
Why would you expect to receive it sooner?

Because they actually told me so haha

Corsair 1050HX + Visiontec 400W AUX PSU.

When the L3+ arrived I realized the 1050 didn't have enough cables, so I grabbed an old auxiliary power supply I used on GPU rigs.
Bitmain says you can use more then one so I figured it didn't void the warranty, I had no other choice on hand.

Yes you should use 1 supply, but it will work and has for a few months now on an L3+ the same as it worked on video cards.

*I don't sleep there and I have automatic redundant fire suppression in place.


You can use PCIE splitter like this:

That is asking for a fire to me..  Never again!

it's simple, either buy securely on bitmain.com , but you will get it at your doorstep first week of October , price 40 LTC

Or pay over 6000$us for one from the July -August batch

Or pay 10k$+ for a used May batch , and you get it in 10 days up running.


This.

10k?  I might sell it for that price. +shipping

I would even sell for 6k and buy LTC with that money haha. That's 133 LTC worth. Would it ever mine that much?

In general,

Here in Europe... ( for me personally there wasn't much point getting them from China ). Custom and import fees would easily put an extra 500 to 600 euro on top if the catch you.

Mate, if they ask me for 500-600euro which is 50% of the money I paid, I'm gonna be all up their ass! That's robbery.

well let me know with an update how much taxes and clearance was...

If you were smart enough to purchase early for the July batch, you should've purchased more machines!!

I initially ordered for May!! But Bitman couldn't process my payment and they bumped me to July unfortunately. But I got a free power supply from it.
I did not have any more money for more machines haha. I tried to persuade friends for a group buy but they chickened out. Oh well I'll wait for next gen miner for more machines :p

How many machines did you order? Maybe bitmain could say it was sent for repair and sent back to you. maybe you will pay less.
I don't think that it is correct to pay 300-400$us of taxes per machine. That is ridiculous man...

Just one. It's easily gonna be 350$ That's just the 24% VAT. I just hope the extra charges are not gonna be much. Unfortunately that's how it is. Nothing we can do when buying from a big vendor.

Hi Guys,
