Title: [WTB] antminer blades s1/s3 [delete pease]
Post by: xwtfbobx on April 11, 2015, 01:58:31 AM
My son was looking for a weekend project, he showed some interest and asked me about the s1 controller mod as seen here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=671128.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=671128.0).

only problem is I got into the btc game well after the s1 was no longer profitable so i have none to disassemble.  He has given me roughly 20$ in BTC to try and get some blades, was checking here as ebay tends to be fairly overpriced

what i am looking for:

2-4 bitmain antminer s1 or s3 blades (only blades to reduce shipping cost)

trying to keep it under .084 BTC shipped (zip: 30533)

escrow is fine and will be used depending on trust level etc.etc.

What zip code would these items be shipping to? It'd help potential sellers know how much of that $20 it is going to cost to get the package to you.

Hey there, I've recently disassembled my S1 for parts! I have two blades ready to rip.

I'm located in canada, so shipping might be a bit higher than domestic--though it shouldn't be that expensive. I might be able to squeeze the blades into a big bubble mailer, so I can do the asking price for both blades if all goes well. I can check with canada post tomorrow, if you'd like.

The post office at my university turned out to be closed on weekends, so no quote today! I'll run out to bigger one tomorrow.

not a problem, have had a few nibbles, but being my first trade i guess i should look into figuring out the whole escrow thing to put some minds at ease.

I have 2x s1 units however I doubt price would even cover shipping to where you are as me in UK and you on zip code am assuming US somewhere would be extremely expensive.

Yes shipping just the blades itself will cost around $20 alone to ship.

So unless you can find someone who wants to donate their blades you are better off finding an S1 locally somewhere.
