Hopefully our chips make it through customs with greater ease than the board components.
It will be much easier since the will be send to Slovenia not Germany.
German customs will have an interesting time with the finished boards.
chips & board from the USA, components from Japan & China, Slovenian assembly........................
Glad I am not a German customer
If your a customer from North America, everything is done in USA.
Yes The only thing that is not done in the USA is the PCBs and I already have a good quantity of them,
If I get down to about half the quantity I have now I will order more:
from start to finish including DHL express shipping (always goes through customs very easy) it takes 8-10 days to get PCBs from start to delivery but like I said I already have them in quantity and will keep them in quantity.
Board assembly takes 5 days, your boards are sent to me where I connect cooling components and load firmware and ship them right out.
If you live outside of north America, your boards will be assembled in Slovania and other aspects handled by lucko.
Yes the main board designer form who is building a production board by hand lives in Germany which is in my opinion is the absolute hardest country in the world to ship anything to.
At least in Russia you can bribe the customs agents... lol
The tracking says it was delivered in Germany yesterday but other than waiting to see form put this board together, German shipping will not affect customers in any way, (unless your a German customer in that case I would use FedEx express for shipping method from business account like we did with form and you will get it in 2-4 days.
If you live in North America, and are interested in getting your BFL chips mounted please PM me, we can have your chips sent directly to the assembly house to save time.
have a nice day
