PRE-ORDER FACTORY RELEASE TIMELINE

    Customers looking to purchase mining equipment should be aware of equipment release timelines and set expectations of when purchased units arrive and get online. No reseller of any product can guarantee an actual date, this is all factory or manufacturer dependent. When purchasing a new unit set to release during a specific month does not mean that units will arrive within a short time period like massive online retailers have us accustomed to. To put into perspective purchasing a unit/s for a May release does not mean the equipment is shipped immediately after placing an order like it would happen when purchasing a gaming console or computer from an online retail store such as Amazon or Walmart that ship from the nearest warehouse. Instead, data mining equipment is shipped overseas.

Example scenario:

    You are purchasing a pre-order for the May 2024 Batch of Bitmain Antminer S21 200Th/s 

    This pre-order is estimated to ship out May 30^th or 31^st from the manufacture Bitmain's location overseas. Shipping schedules are in accordance with the estimated batch shipping dates where your order is placed.

    To put into perspective purchasing a unit/s for a May release does not mean the equipment is shipped immediately after placing the order like it would happen when purchasing a gaming console or computer from an online retail store such as Amazon or Walmart that ships from the nearest warehouse to you. Instead, data mining equipment is shipped overseas after being produced. Pictured below is a timeline displaying the amount of time to expect for pre-orders to arrive as well as an ordered list going further into detail of what each step of the process looks like.
