Title: [WTS] 3 BFL FPGA Singles, escrow provided by John K.
Post by: e21 on June 28, 2013, 04:44:54 PM
Edit: Still for sale, taking offers.

EDIT: Asking 5.5BTC per single, or 14BTC for all 3.

Have 3x BFL Single FGPAs for sale, each in fine working condition, but missing a couple of the case screws as the FPGAs were used out of their "shell". The fans have all been replaced, however one of them has some dust stuck in it and makes a bit of a noise unless it's placed at an angle.

Other than that, they work perfectly one at 864MHs, one at 872/MHs and the last at 880MH/s in Southern California weather. I did not get power bricks with them, but instead use a PCI-E power adapter custom made by CableZ here on Bitcointalk, which has been working beautifully for several months; this is included with the purchase of all three, but not if you buy them individually.

I am taking payment in Bitcoins only, but I would like the equivalent of $600 (USD) for each of them individually, or $1600 (USD) for all three. I will ship for free anywhere in the continental US, but Alaska, Hawaii or international shipping will cost $50 extra. I would like to avoid waiting for the package to go through customs, so I would prefer a buyer located in the US.

Escrow service will be provided by John K.

At 5.3BTC each if you buy all three its the cheapest I have seen for sale here in a while, But still not close to what it's worth to ROI freaks.

I think its a good price, But I'm not in the market for these, Good luck on your sale.  8)

Couldn't one buy 3 block eruptors for 3BTC that would hash faster than one of the FPGA units?  I guess the FPGA units are reprogrammable.

Yes there is a limited re-use for FPGA's, But still hold some value due to this. I reflected a good price on this as many here are still asking 10 coins and some.  :o

I suppose I will accept 5.5 BTC a piece, or 14 BTC for all 3, assuming approximately $95 USD per BTC. Any takers?

Hash faster while using quite less power as well as less heat/noise.

Not sure, these Singles aren't special though, either they all do or all don't.

Surely these are worth more than $200 still; BFL is accepting full trade-in value still are they not?

According to an owner I was talking to the other week, yes.

This.  They aren't doing trade-ins anymore.  I'll go 2.1 BTC for one.

You probably already made a nice profit though.  :D
