Title: [SOLD] Avalon Batch 2 unit for sale [Unit in hands, not a pre-oreder]
Post by: senseless on June 06, 2013, 08:31:50 AM
I'm selling a fully functional Batch 2 Avalon mining rig.

It is currently running stable and requires almost no maintenance. It has 3 mining modules, comes with all original parts and accessories and will even ship in original packaging. When received the unit did not include a wireless antenna or power cord.

Miner performance is stable at around 72 GHash/s with 300Mhz firmware settings, producing around 2.75BTC/day at current difficulty. Power consumption is at around 600Watts, the most energy-efficient miner the money can buy right now.

This is not another Bitmit/Paypal scam, this is the real deal. And it is not any preorder b/s either, but an actual working Avalon unit, ready to mine right now.

The winner of this auction will receive one Avalon unit, original parts and accessories. I will ship from the Philippines worldwide through any carrier of your choice, but you are responsible for the actual shipment costs on top of the auction price. The payment method is BTC.

Looking for 280 bitcoins send me a message to discuss details. A unit was recently sold for 281 bitcoins with several late bids higher, here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=221806.40

Reason for sale:

As a result of being in the philippines I have major issues with my internet service. So far in the 1-2 weeks I've had the unit I've missed out on nearly 5-7BTC worth of mining due to internet outages beyond my control. If I've missed that much btc in such a short time, what more in the following months.

Notice:

Due to a flaw in the v1.5 controller for the batch 2 avalons; My controller unit received some damage. The problem has been corrected by affixing a heatsink to the chip in question. The unit mines completely stable.

You can see this damage at:

You will be able to buy a new controller from https://bitaxe.ca/ if so desired. But, The unit is completely functional and stable as I mentioned. The current highest offer in fiat on the table is 25K USD cash.

Allow me to propose an offer that is a bit unconventional.

I will host the device for you.
I will take a rather substantial fee. 40%
However, with that comes the following.
I will purchase a KNC Saturn for you, and host that for you as well.
Upon receipt of the Saturn, my hosting fee will drop to 15%, plus electricity costs.
(cheap here in PA, USA)

If you'd like i'll video chat with you on skype all the way to DHL. And, I am an american, so still under US authority/jursidiction even though I don't live there. So we could do a contractual sale; if I don't ship, you can sue me.

The problem with that is you're still trusting some other party. If the escrow runs off with the money, are you going to pay me again? (twice the cost for the box?). And who picks the escrow? If I pick an escrow I trust, you may not trust them. If you pick an escrow you trust, I may not trust them.

JohnK is IMHO the most trusted escrow agent period. He is holding 1,000 btc for the forum and has done numerous big ticket transactions.

I'll do escrow as long as the buyer is willing sign a contract stating they will pay me again if the escrow disappears with the money. (And as long as the buyer is from somewhere where said contract will be enforceable).

I am from America and will buy the unit with those stipulations.   Holding at $20k.
