I ordered one on 9/15 and just got a tracking number on 9/27. That is when the label was generated but the package has not been picked up DHL yet.

I’m in the same boat as you. I’ve just decided it’ll be here when ever it gets here. Not sweating it.

To date “Gold Shell” is doing really good. They have contacted me for the problems I have had. There product shows up pretty fast, nothing bad to say about them (so far).

My brother and I just received a notification from DHL that let us know we needed to pay $344.76 for an import duty to further process our shipment. We already paid for the miners.
Has anyone not paid and still received their miner(s)?
Who just broke down and paid?

NO PAY it or they will return your products, about the only thing DHL is fast at. This happened to me the very first time I ordered. Now for some reason I am not charged anymore, go figure.
So in short I paid once and was not charged after that.

yes, if they ask you to pay the tax, then you need to do so.
It is normal in almost every country in the world that there are import taxes on items that you bring inside the country.
It depends on local law and sometimes on good or bad luck if they pick you out or not.
DHL will also ask you to pay a kind of handling fee for managing the customs for you.
If you, or someone you know, knows well how to manage the customs clearance, then you can tell DHL that you take care about it on your own.
But in best case this only saves you the DHL handling fee.
In worst case you do something wrong and then you can say bye bye to the miner.
If you have a busines running, then ask you tax consultant for possible refund.
And don´t wait to long with a decision. After a certain amount of days the customs department could charge you with a storage fee, if they not just send it back.

Yah I live in California and I had to pay import fees. All you other people are lucky you don’t have to pay fees or taxes. It was pretty expensive.
