WRONG.
Bitmain is the one who should claim anything from UPS.
Customers is only to receive package, if its lost UPS will do nothing with customer.At the end of this line bitmain paid for postage so he is the one who can claim anything.

Well, I couldn't wait another day, so I emailed Bitmain asking to get my BTC back. It cost 0.554 BTC when I ordered it on April 30. I don't want a replacement unit because I've already lost 2 weeks of mining as a result of UPS losing it. Even if Bitmain offers me a coupon to cover the price difference, I don't see any point in getting another S1.

Let's see if Bitmain comes through for me.

Most likely no you got screwed.     Not that bitmain is a bad business but  this type of issue is not resolved very  well.  Also RMA issues are handled poorly. 

(but most of the gear never needs an rma)

That's just bad customer service. If UPS/DHL ever lose your miner from Bitmain, you never get your btc back? Bitmain will only send you a replacement unit AFTER a month??? Wow. That's just bad customer service.

I understand that these things rarely happen but you'd think the sender will do everything they can to correct the wrong by at least giving a full refund.

I have ordered 6 times and out of the 6 times, this one gets lost by UPS. So, UPS victimizes me and Bitmain gets to victimize me again???

Doesn't Bitmain know we are on the forum and reading this?

Do the right thing, Bitmain! Give me back my 0.554 BTC!

You should claim the difference between current price and brought prize atleast.

I sell 10x S2 coupons for 0.05BTC each.
I also sell 27x S1 coupons for 0.3BTC all of them.

If anyone interested pm me.

Pick cheap good psu. Dell poweredge 700w or 750w.
Little MOD to slow down a fan and job done. This can be picked up below 10gbp

i really don't have any time to dedicate to modding... just looking for a cheap PnP... what wattage is recommended for factory or OC'd ants...?

I would consider any real offer, I would just like to offset the cost on a couple of s1's.

I can't tell.  There are no specs about the 12V rail.  I'd proceed with caution.

If you intend to drive more than one ant, and are prepared to spend $100 on a decent PSU, consider this one:

Will drive 3xOCd S1s with room to spare.
