Post by: relm9 on March 26, 2013, 04:40:21 AM Either they are fake bidders driving the price up, or are far too hopeful...
I sometimes get the feeling some newcomers to Bitcoin don't understand that the difficulty will exponentially increase. Title: Re: IS THIS SHIT FOR REAL? $10k+ for a pre-order????? Post by: Bit_Happy on March 26, 2013, 04:42:03 AM Insane, no one even knows if they work.
Title: Re: IS THIS SHIT FOR REAL? $10k+ for a pre-order????? Post by: phr0stbyt3 on March 26, 2013, 04:48:31 AM Based on what they're going for I'm tempted to put mine up with a really high reserve and see what happens.
Title: Re: IS THIS SHIT FOR REAL? $10k+ for a pre-order????? Post by: crazyates on March 26, 2013, 05:02:05 AM These ASICs generate BTC, not USD. I've been saying for a while now, I wouldn't sell my preorders for less than 200BTC, as thats what I can expect to make within a reasonable amount of time. That is independent of the fact that BTC is now ~$75. If BTC was $20, it would still be worth 200BTC.

Post by: mitty on March 28, 2013, 09:40:26 PM 11914 ($14k) and 12218 ($12.1k) were my auctions, and the winning bidder never got back to me. I don't know why someone's trying to prevent these from selling, but it's somewhat annoying.

At today's difficulty, that's ~4.5BTC/day. If the price was $10, that's on $45/day. With the price currently at $89, that's $400/day. Can you see how the increase in the price of BTC affects the increase of the price of these hardware pre-orders? If you don't understand this, I will gladly buy your early-date pre-order for what you paid for it: $1300. Title: Re: IS THIS SHIT FOR REAL? $10k+ for a pre-order????? Post by: PulsedMedia on April 01, 2013, 10:36:24 AM lol, if they went at that rate really, i'd have no problem of selling my july & august preorders :)

If you don't understand this, I will gladly buy your early-date pre-order for what you paid for it: $1300. The price of BTC will fluctuate so if you buy a rig that mines 4.5BTC/day and the price of BTC falls to $30... Can you see how the price of BTC makes paying $10,000 USD today for a machine you MIGHT get 3-6 months from now a real losing idea. If you don't understand this, I will gladly sell you MY early-date pre-order for what I DIDN'T pay for it: $500. ... and I will give you the same assurances all the eBayers give you like a nifty .jpg of some invoice for $1,300.

I'm glad this thread is still going. I'm sure you'll notice that today BFL announced a price doubling of all their units. Discuss. |
