Title: Ztex 1.15y Quads (FPGA) for sale by the lot of 5+
Post by: antirack on April 19, 2013, 12:42:24 PM
* ALL SOLD *

I currently have quads for sale, by the lot of 5 pcs minimum. 850 MH/s average.

Please PM your offers (BTC) and I will ship them out after Wednesday next week.

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-7fhgbdnQptM/UXE2fVnT_EI/AAAAAAAAb9U/TvNBS1zAPkY/s640/IMG_4458.JPG

They are a licensed production from Ztex and I had my first quad units up and running even before Ztex shipped their first quads last year. I basically bought the original PCBs from Ztex and had them made in a professional SMT production line. Check for my posts on the Ztex thread from when I built them:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=49180.msg866401#msg866401

I am in Hong Kong, but worldwide express shipping is no problem and I can send them as a "gift". I can also throw in some free USB hubs and USB cables, but this may drive up shipping costs. Shipping of 2.5 kg or around 5 lbs is below US$ 50 to the USA or Europe and should take less than a week. Heatsinks/fans are also included.

I am usually not selling stuff here the the forums, but I had already sold a couple of things including 5 Icarus boards and BFL singles a long time ago. Ask Kano or Cablez if you need a reference.

Only buy if you know what you are doing, I cannot give any mining support or help you get them up and running. But I guarantee that they work and I can throw in brand new fans and heatsinks (as bonus) in original packing if you want.

Hi,

so these are just "copies" of the ztex boards. So except from not being built by ZTex these are 100% compatible and run the normal ZTex bitstream, right?

Best,
 Chris

These are 100% ztex Boards as he described. He produced them himself with a licenses from Ztex but his own parts and assembler. They work the same ;)


I want one or two but I can not afford 5.... :(

ztex will only sell in lots of 50, and they are 1000euro+ each
your quote is for 1.15x which is a single fpga board, so 1/4 the price...

These are NOT copies. I paid a fortune for the license from Ztex, he shipped the PCB to me, and I have assembled them in another SMT line. That's all.

It seems 5 BTC per board is a fair price, but please don't make this difficult for me.

I am selling them by the lot of 5 because my time is very limited (busy at work and family matters).

I have no time for life demonstrations (received PM from somebody in HK) and give mining support, and I really expect the money up front via BTC and the boards will be on the way within a day or two max. I know this is a risk on your end, but I do not have any bad intentions but cutting down the time it takes for me to get this out the door.

So if you truly want 5 units, please send me a PM with your address and the fact that you would like to take 5 for 25 BTC. Shipping will be around 0.3 as the Bitcoin stands now and I plan to get this all shipped following week and be done with it.

I will then create a BTC address for you in my wallet so I know who sent the money and and everything goes smoothly from there.

Please also mention if you need the USB cables, USB hub or new heatsinks/fans (which you actually don't need, this is a bonus and nice to have some spare parts).

Thanks!

Replying to PM now. Was asleep over here in HK and it's 5AM now (need to head out in an hour).

I had 64 units and have sold a few 5 pcs. sets, just checking my PMs and incoming transactions.

There are boards left.

Post by: antirack on April 20, 2013, 09:48:57 PM
20 boards left.

The price is 25 BTC for 5 boards.

Shipping is EMS Speedpost, takes 2-5 days according to the web site:
http://www.speedpost.hk/speedpost/sections/postageCalc/postageCalc.jsf

Shipping price seems to be 0.30 to 0.35 to most countries, so far only Chile being the big exception.

There were a quadrillion of PMs asking for a bargain and for less than 5 boards.

Thanks to everyone else. Tracking numbers will be headed your way Monday and Tuesday (its Sunday right now).

Sent this yesterday for ocminer:

Hi antirack,

if you still have them, I'd take 10 to 15 depending on availability.

Please send me BTC address for payment and I'll send you my address for shipping.

Thanks.
