Hello all,

You know the drill by now. 10.7-13GH blades, have in hand stock in the following locations, totalling >50 units:

USA
EU
Asia

PM me using the following form and I will try to match you a blade at that price.
Best Price:
Location:
Quantity:

There are discounts for multiple units, can ship globally from any location although will typically match from a local region.

price ?

Varies by region and by day. If this thread is still alive in a week, putting prices here just makes it misleading.

Give us an estimated price  :D
I dunno what to offer..

Something in the 25-35 BTC range would probably be acceptable. You can always offer and he can always turn you down  :)

Fine, but this will make people QQ later when the prices change.
As of today, 27th of June, offers should be 35-40.

New USB miners used to be 2 BTC, and their price was just dropped to 1 BTC.
New Blades used to be 50 BTC. Best of luck getting more than about 25 BTC.

Best of luck achieving the density or large scale cooling a blade provides, and the need for a computer.

You are who?

Hi!

Are you selling used units or what?

All blades are used, yes.

#1 Blade reserved

How in the world did you get a hold of 50 blades? Didn't you just sell your blades?

I'm an agent, I hold sellers on file. Like a real-estate agent, they don't have to own the houses :D

#2-4 sold

how much you sell them , i offer 25 BTC .

Pm'ed.

#1 sold

What?

Bump

Is this thread still alive?

Yes

BTC25?  I'm in! 

Not for 25, and neither was he ;)

What is the price right now?

36-40 depending on location. No other hardware is competing at this price, nor are USBs.

LOL

around BTC40 seems to be on par with USB erupters ( 10752/333 * .99 = ~32 ; 12829/333 * .99 = ~38.5 ; source : http://www.asicminer.co/devices.html ) so assuming BTC1.5 for hubs that's a range of BTC33.5 - 40 to equal USB erupters.   if it drops out of that range i'd be interested.

thnx!

Blades should be cheaper then USBs for many reasons.  Redundancy - If something breaks on your blade the whole blade is out but it's not likely 30 USBs break at once.  Divisibility - You can sell as many or as few USBs waiting for top price while they hash away. 

Its the other way around.

USBs need USB hubs
USBs need *disputed* usb fans to cool
USBs can't exhaust the heat as easily in a farm
USBs take up WAY WAY WAY WAY more space
USBs require a host computer
USBs require a lot of cabling

Blades are under warranty, USBs are sold with redundancy rather than a warranty.
Blades are modular.

I'm not trying to argue just this is strictly to learn more.  How modular is the blade?  Are you saying if a hashing chip or two busts it's easy to repair/replace?  What about other components like a controller or power delivery system?  As far as heat and space you are correct for multiple blades but it's unlikely to be a huge issue for a buyer deciding between a blade or even two and three or six usb hubs.  Also I'm pretty sure anyone who uses BTC has a computer.  ;)

If a hashing chip dies, it just hashes slower unless it exploded etc. There are 3 components, the ethernet controller, the power delivery board and the hashing board. All 3 are interchangable.

Its not the requirement of a computer which is a problem, its that a computer needs to be on all the time.

I didn't know if chips fail that it still works.  Are ethernet controller and power delivery board readily available?

A 'blade' is a set of all 3. If one fails, friedcat will send you one out for free.

Thank you Dogie for a smooth transaction and updates!  New blade up and running nicely :)

Ty :)

10BTC, up to 7 blades at that price.

.... why do people bother saying things like this

Hi. Brand new blades are being sold at 18.88 BTC each now. Will you price match or beat it?

This is for everyone, don't take it personally:
1) The new blades aren't even properly announced yet. We don't have pictures or confirmed specs. We don't know how they're powered or cooled.
2) We don't even have a confirmed release date, or time of availability
3) The new blades are NOT overclockable

are you sure friedcat will send you one out for free.!!!

friedcat never answer to my message for warranty for my blade with

chips OOOOOOOOXXXXOOOOOOOXXXXOOOO

how's about shipping cost and VAT to sweden?

want to know more before i put I put a bid

 I recently had this problem develop with one of my blades in high clock mode. Turns out the lane voltage was tuned too low. After putting a multimeter on it and cranking the lane up to ~1.17-1.2v, it's been fine since.

Within EU you wouldn't pay VAT, outside price would be declared at a few 100$ so low tax. Shipping costs not much.

you need to have 1.2 V.
because at 1.7 V are not working all right.

wont work and no answer from friedcat since 8 day. i never buy to this guy. warranty is false

Is this post still alive ?

dogie, do you have 46 units available?

as u can see, NO

No I do not ^_^ All units were sold away from here. I will lock this thread, PM me if anyone wants anything.
