Title: WTB 2 x Antminer S5 in Toronto
Post by: thebonenz on November 10, 2015, 02:47:28 AM
Hi,

I'm planning a trip to Canada and possibly New York before the end of the year and since I'm moving back to New Zealand I want to pick up a couple rigs before moving back to the middle of nowhere.

Planning to be in Toronto in December.

Cheers,
thebonenz

Bitcoinware is a shop located in Toronto, i was told previously, by them, you can go and see them/do local pickup. http://bitcoinware.net/

The big caveat is their price is ridiculously high.

I'd have to recommend setting up that deal with Valkir, thats probably the best you can do. Worse case scenario if your timing is right, you could have him ship domestic for a not too expensive quote if you would stay in Toronto for a few days.

Hopefully you can get the miners through custom without paying exorbitant prices.

Right now the best deal is to buy directly from Bitmain the S7 for 4 BTC. Its very cheap due to the price decline.

You won't find any miner cheaper than that, a used S5 costs much more and is less efficient.

How does a used S5 cost more than a new S7 exactly? Do you mean in the long run?

No I mean there is huge demand for miners and no supply. So used S5's sell for more then new S7's.

In the long run the S7 is better.

yeah I realised what you meant! It makes sense. How much were the S7s when they came out?

Do you know if you can use coupons with the latest cheaper batch?

Same, had pretty bad dealing with them, they replaced stuff i bought with cheaper version watt meter(a Rosewill instead of a P3) and refused to refund the difference.

After one month of complaining i said "i give up, enjoy the red trust on Bitcointalk on their chat" and suddenly few hours later they contacted me saying they would make an exception and "Price match" the crap they sold me to the price you can get it anywhere else.
