They should have left the m10 31th at 799 and killed the coupon it would have kept USA buyer under 800 and no trump tax.

The 33th should be dropped to 949 with a 25 dollar coupon. Or 924.

USA buyers would get the 31th  model.

Now

the s15 is a tax job 27.6% for USA
The m10 is a tax job 27.6% for USA
The t15 is no tax  and may be the best deal. 0% since it is under 800.

Yeah it is tough for me.  I did the build out with a mix of gear.

530th   btc
   7mh  ltc

1  s15          top speed   57 watts a th
19 s9's  set these at mid speed90 watts a th
6  m10's set these at top speed 70 watts a th
1 t2turbo24 eco speed 82 watts a th
1 a921        -1 speed 95 watts a th
2 a721        -1 speed 140 watts a th     so this is 2000 watts
4 s7ln           reg speed 250 watts a th  this is 2800 watts
14 L3+   these are on a low watt program

so replacement of the bold gear will happen and 2 m10's would do the trick

some power  but th would go from 20th to 63th

For me it doesn't change much. Just the added price. I have to pay PST + GST on everything I receive so 13%, if I had a registered business it would only be GST at 5%. It also varies by province, Alberta for instance only has the GST. Usually only gets worse when  CAD takes a dip, makes me long for that shortlived time at Par.


Nice, I had some Avalon gear that showed up and was well over spec. I love winning the hardware lottery. After the last reset and increase to normal mode - I am getting 30.8 and 31.7 TH/s from my units.

I was kicking around the idea of ordering another 1 maybe 2, but haven't decided on pulling the trigger yet. The price increase hasn't helped the decision either.

T15 is best the best option under de minimis right now. At least on the m10 31T the tariff is "marginal" compared to other units. Looks like about 1.2k with duties/shipping is about right.

and they lose  sales to the USA

Since  they  are effectively now at :

31th    850 x 1.276 + 91= 1175   too much to  pay I paid   875 10 days ago  so it is a 34% jump in price
33th  1020 x 1.276 + 91 =  too much to  pay

daily hash rate jumped real hard last 2 days
42,000,000,000 gh to 48,000,000,000
so that  make the gear worth 5 to 10%  less then the 799 it was listed for  not   34%  more.

based on this new jump the 875 I paid including the shipping for the 31th unit should now be 800 to 830
not 1175

Well  if they were to sell

the 31th model for 749 + 150 shipping and handling  they would get 899

if they were to sell

the 33th model for 799 + 175 shipping and handling they would get 974


no coupons and in both cases under the 800 number

yeah the 27.6% tax is a brutal number to overcome

old 31th was 875 with no tax + coupon + shipping   roi is in 700 days with 4 cent power.  this is bad enough

new 31th  is   1111 with tax + coupon + shipping    roi is never  with same 4 cent power.

so at 200 days you would owe 416 on the lower price
and at 200 days in you would owe 652 on the higher price    that extra 222 cost is a killer for me.

Some one was talking about selling me one at 799 + 101 shipping = 900  but that may fall through.

So no purchase for now

Both myself and buysolar would want one if pricing can be reduced.

I know this is not the place for group buy, but I checked the group buy section and didn't find anything recent. However, sign me up for 1 or 2 31Ts.

I've been waiting to pull the plug on these for a month and reading of yours guys' positive experience tipped me over the edge... Until they raised their prices last week.
