Title: [closed][SIDEHACK STICK] Group Buy for Australia
Post by: AJRGale on July 15, 2015, 10:12:26 AM
Hello People.

just doing a obvious copy of valkir group buy topic, but for Australia.

Heres the topic that started it all:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=995675.0

some People have tested these sticks, still waiting on a few more testes to ad in their views:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1086011.0

Heres a picture that I shamelessly stole off TheRealSteve
https://i.imgur.com/Zddzbkb.jpg

These can pull 0.3W/GH, at that, it does 9.5GH/s

Hit me up on how many you want, but, a Maximum of 10 Per Person Only! relaxed on the limit, as per:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1126705.msg12053176#msg12053176

so far there is up to 20 that has been asked and I've paid sidehack for 20 of them now.

me x3 (paid, derp)
tricass x2 (paid)
heslo x 2 (paid)
btc6000 x2
TheRealSteve x 1 (paid)
Stringer Bell x 10 (cancelled)

So if anyone wants any more, ask away, I'll put the order down.

The prices are still at 0.1BTC each, and for a small package its about $15aud, I Will double check the pricing, it could be more or less.
as i have said, BTC Address is: 17z2no9upjzgqjYfuG2Z72Ezyg4KEmeq53

They are very nice gear.

   I run mine overclocked  at freq 250.  -------- Needs a fan to run at freq 250.

  I get 13.75gh and use about 5.05 watts a stick  which is .36 watts a gh.

At stock  freq of 175     I get .3 to .31 watts.

I like these a lot.

Also, if anyone gets a PM from me calming i have some to sell because of this, until its finalised, i won't be PM'ing anyone to take any coins/money. id probably discuss most of it here and just get you to PM me your postal details.

Well, Wednesday 6AM (Sydney time) sales open on the Compacs. As per https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1126705.0
sidehack is quota queueing, we pay, its manufactured and shipped.

If you want to pay for them now, and wait it out, BTC Address is: 17z2no9upjzgqjYfuG2Z72Ezyg4KEmeq53
Just PM me with your TX and your details.

Or you can wait for them to be shipped to me to pay for it, so I post them out to you.

Also, Escrow is your responsibility, I'm happy if you want to escrow, but you are to take up the escrow fees.


So far, there is 10 on order, that is $35aud, and $25 postage from sidehack's workshop, totalling $375aud (or rounded to 1BTC because I cant be bothered with the little numbers :P) to sidehack.

Also, I have set myself a limit of 50 stick (unless otherwise stated).

Will depend on shipping option.  Could keep an eye on GekkoScience's main thread(s) for updates as to when they expect to have units ready and shipping.  As of this time:
I expect to start shipping sticks (in the order payments arrived, with some quota queueing for prearranged bulk orders) by August 25th. Any delays in this timeline will be announced as they are discovered.

Well, they are 0.1btc each, so 1btc for 10, and i cant say exactly what postage would be, but $15 should cover you

My big bulk sales are past. Every small order has shipped. I'll probably have the next three bulk sales ready to ship on Friday, which includes Australia GB. That leaves three bulk sales, the oldest of which came in one week ago.

I find this guy's appraisal of foreign post reliability to be, if anything, optimistic.

Sorry I completely missed you here! you should of PM'ed me!

I have 1 left of the 1st batch, I was holding onto it for a spare for the others if they had an issue with any of them dying, but if you want it, i'm happy to sell it.
there was not enough interest for batch 2, but if there is 2 more people calling up and there is enough batch 2 remaining (official selling thread states about 100 left) I'll look into it.

But, if you haven't already, contact Sidehack for a handful, He'd be happy to sell you some outright, postage would be more then off me though.
