Bitcoin Forum

I'm selling one BFL 5GH/s miner to highest bidder. BFL has shipped it to me couple of days ago and I will ship it to you when I receive it. I should have them at the end of next week.
Bidding starts at 6 BTC. This auction will be closed 22:00 UTC on saturday 8th of June 2013 or 1 minute after the last bid.

I prefer buyers from EU due to taxes (VAT). Buyer pays for every extra costs. I will cover the shipping. I will sell another one if the price is around 10BTC. SEPA transfer is also welcome.

PM sent.

Forgot to add that bid in 0.05 BTC increments.

6 BTC. Is JohnK escrow ok?

If we must use escrow, he is the guy I trust.

I would advice people to look up my previous post and see some trading history. I don't really want to use escrow but if that's a must then so be it.

What proof can you provide? You willing to pm tracking nr or other? Also, I am willing to cover escrow fee through JohnK, is that ok?

I can do that if you are a serious bidder. I'm shipping from Finland and plan to visit Stockholm around 16th of June so meeting there is also possible. JohnK is fine.

I already have three PMs where people are offering 10 BTC/device and asking how many I can sell:
My original plan was to sell only two or three here and one in finnish bitcoin forum. The shipment that I'm referring in the OP has four Jalapenos in it so that's my maximum. Other shipment will be mine since I've waited these for a whole year.

- 6.05
- i'm from EU
- escrow trough John, i pay the fees

Sold one for 12BTC. PM'd JohnK about the escrow.

Happy bidding guys :D

This whole thing is a huge mess right now. Everyone making bids in PMs. Make bids in public and I will decide later what to do.

Nothing sold yet and I will only answer PMs about shipping method, proof, location etc. Price discussion belongs here.

Everyone who is ready to pay me directly without escrow goes in front of the line. In case there isn't anyone who is ready to do that (doubt that) we will use JohnK's escrow service and buyer pays the fee. I will pay for normal, insured shipping. Express shipping is about 0.2BTC extra if you are in EU.

Can you clarify the amount of units for sale?

Three for sure. Probably four.

1@11.5

Would you be shipping to US? If buyer pays shipping (insured, expedited w/ tracking) then any approx. cost?

If your bid makes it into the top three and you pay for the shipping, sure yes. That shipping method should be around 0.5BTC. I will check some shipping prices tomorrow and post them here.

But like I said, I prefer EU buyers due to shorter shipping time. Less time for everyone to wait the deal to get finished.

I would really like to change the end time but let's stick with what I said before so everyone has time to bid. Here are some common questions I've received in PMs:

Are you going to mine with those 5GH miners before shipping them to buyers?
 - No, I will ship them to buyers the same day I receive them. Everyone will get their tracking code few hours after I've shipped. If someone wants, I can test his/her device briefly but I do not think it's necessary. I will ship them insured with tracking. I will cover the shipping to EU countries. Otherwise we split the cost and you take care of any other costs that might come up at your end.

Can I buy more than one, how many can you sell?
 - One 5GH miner/buyer. I will sell three but if the price keeps climbing like this I will sell four. I will let everyone know tomorrow evening (UTC)

When did you order, what is your order number, proof?
 - I ordered in June 2012. My order number for these four was 23xx. I'm happy to send pictures and/or tracking code if one has a winning bid.

PLEASE do not bid privately. I'm done with that mess :D

What about the bidders who are willing not to escrow? Say I bid 15 no escrow and someone ahead bids 17 with escrow. Will you arbitrarily decide who wins?

3 @ 11.55

1 @ 17

Whoops. I meant 1 @ 15.

Sorry stupid ipad

1 @ 12 BTC

Three best bidders get one 5GH miner each. If I can get 15 BTC without escrow, I will remove the whole escrow option. That's just extra waiting for me.

I hope every bidder would mention whether they want escrow or not.

Current top 3:
BlackLilac 20 BTC (location?)
Chanberg 15 BTC (location?)
Pvtbrutus 12 BTC (location?)

BlackLilac @20 - Canada
Chanberg @15 - UK
pvtbrutus @12 - Netherlands

Thats correct, no escrow needed for me. If i win one, i would like express shipping.

1@13 Netherlands

Can I get my employees to bid on the other two, or is that cheating?   ;D


My location: Vancouver, Canada.

UK? Lol

I am located in NYC

Ok :D I googled your name and found an ebay account. It said UK but... NYC it is.

Received a bid from a guy who doesn't have posting privileges yet so I'm posting it here instead:

Check my post history, succesful deals there. You can pay with SEPA transfer and sue me later if something goes wrong. I know it doesn't tell you much but I'm a trusted member of the finnish bitcoin community. I've been here over a year and have been mining since 2011. I can guarantee you there is no need to start scamming now. Story about me scamming would travel pretty fast to finnish btc community and I would lose my excellent reputation. That would also kill my firm's and my own future as a business man. Both many times more valuable than ~50BTC.

I would like to take one of my deals as an example. French bitcoiner gyverlb bought two 5970s from me. Maybe the packaging was poor or maybe postal service just destroyed the package, they arrived in a horrible condition. Gyverlb was not happy (for a reason) and I offered him a full refund for both cards. He sent them back and I refunded him without any problems or delays.

I'm pretty sure at least one of the winning bidders wants to use escrow and that's not a real problem. I just prefer to get btc/fiat asap without any third parties or waiting. And how old is that feedback system anyway.

may i verify the tracking info give to you by BFL?

I'm late  :(

you better get a pregnancy test than!

too late  ;D

I've sent PM to all the buyers and looks like everyone can pay me directly. I would ask you to pay as soon as possible. I'm not waiting forever.

I also contacted biganth and decided to sell him one unit, whatever happens. Right now it looks like it's someone else's since paying takes so long..

Received it today, thanks.

Also received it today, +1 for very smooth and friendly communication & fulfillment!
