Title: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 03:01:04 AM What I'm selling
An Avalon unit 80 GH/s w/703 firmware that I have in-hand and ready to ship. I'm looking for 80-100ish BTC O.B.O. When I'm selling it Sale closes tomorrow (7/30/2013) @ 4:30pm my time. That's 16:30 Central Time (UTC-06:00). If you want escrow, please specify (see below). If you do not want escrow, then upon receipt of the BTC, I will hash for you till ship time (probably around noon on the subsequent day). If the highest bid is a PM, I will post the amount publicly to the highest bidder in this thread after the auction closes and give them an option to beat or match you. If you are the private bidder and the public bidder agrees to match your payment, you lose. I think this is the only fair way to handle private bidding. I came up with this solution because it encourages keeping everything fair and open and will hopefully prevent delays. See "Final Notes" below if you don't mind traveling to avoid shipping delay. Why I'm selling it I was originally hoping to have had this unit back in April. Because I didn't get it till July, it's now summer and I can't feasibly run it in my small apartment due to heat, noise, etc. Plus, I'm in the process of purchasing a house and I basically cannot deal with constantly tweaking settings and loading firmware and watching it like a hawk to make sure I have zero downtime. Lastly, I have several trade-in Icarus for Avalons so this one isn't that important for me to hold on to. Had I received all my Avalons on time back in April, I would have rented commercial space and done this professionally, but now I just can't afford to take on that kind of risk, especially since the trade-ins haven't shipped yet. :( Where I'm selling it I live in Central Iowa. I will only ship to continental US, but the shipping is included in your bid. Who am I I'm Raize, I've been here since early 2011 and my OTC account is early 2011 as well. Please be wary about PM. I worry about this forum and our accounts being huge targets without two-factor authentication. Ask me to verify either via PGP or the address listed on my OTC account (http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewgpg.php?nick=NickRaize) in all PMs/emails. If I refuse to, consider that it is NOT me. I am also authenticated on #bitcoin-otc (http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#bitcoin-otc) for tonight till tomorrow morning if you have questions. I'll also check PM and this thread, obviously.

Yes, that is a 2011 25 BTC Casascius coin included for further proof that I've been on this forum a long time and am the real deal.) Final notes If the winner lives in the Midwest, I'm okay with having you pick it up at my work if you don't mind driving to Central Iowa. I can hash in the meantime, but I'll want the payment immediately. I highly discourage PM for bidding, but didn't want to exclude it because I know newbies cannot come in here and even a newbie might have the BTC to pay for this. Additionally, some folks just want their privacy. The reason I discourage PMs for bidding is because they are almost always used by scammers or others that want to delay or otherwise hinder the sale. If you really want this unit, you'll make a newbie account, get it verified for this thread, and post a bid. I will NOT close this sale/auction early, it's not even a full day auction so that doesn't make sense. If you want escrow, it will be done with JohnK. I've never done any deals with him, but everyone seems to trust him. Please note that if we do escrow, you pay for it, and I will NOT be hashing for you prior to shipping, because I'll probably be trying to ship ASAP. Be sure to check "Notify me of replies" if you want to know when/if I post the sales of the other Avalons. I will include a link to whatever new post I make in this thread. Considering the house I'm moving to needs an electrical rework and the trade-ins are so extremely delayed, I might just be selling out of all of my stock when/if the trade-ins come in as well. Lastly, sorry this was so long, I want to make it as fair and open as possible while preventing any gaming of the bidding. This isn't really a traditional "auction" as I want to primarily just sell the unit I have, so it's hard to manage all the caveats that could come up. I apologize in advance if there's something glaringly obvious I've missed. Let me know if there's other pictures you want to see for proof. Public responses to PM questions that should be posted here in interest of fairness -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 No, you cannot occupy the first position of first right of refusal. No one can. I just want to sell this unit, and I want it to be as fairly as possible. If you're interested, please bid. If not, I'm sorry, I cannot help you. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.20 (MingW32) iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJR9zPeAAoJEJlg8ibWELXhbSIP/3AgEESzHcGogfE9FiVTEfGN DdXa+4GjWwh9xdL08pC/Pqbz3Dgod5Vs9oabMPBrGTvwnYE8kjKuabkt5PKC3lkR Pkv7Fdrbaqyd7QI2IqqTtFX/CKQ1oro/Hrn3ekc3sXbGPBh6TUJsY+Qjk7QDvhzS Nzugz2E8lmNp490xsSRCnaXRwsqNKlFWVNrvr8h55j1LmHFJMe72/FNAa+ncmYxq rmDUqE03aVEPI3ybFt8QdP1l2efV2TlDDOoGxsAMyTW1ZUoqaXqXbA/R7dsfaBSY vC7pE78AlJE7D4hJWlHDTIxamXBYsb1+bNtpoDeplwEAv+CjSc5gNIzPQUbga06S mjrR3CqtfnPJzFtp+E/Gf6BroeO9kS/W1QAAFx0r2xmIOpu8wre2BjJkJvQnfgmE PlINjeuJYALpcrxghgpwcQMhAlDya/Bh5gCSAgC+4V9Z2hCQXTYimyZ+Wq8FHiPA 3S0kxd7rr7GmJN7BG+iAgCulqWLZOdRHxBFzZdvGZVuduwpo7n60QOXeY8UJhegX bwA9QJBYQ4XXsTJpn5SaR+GXhjsUencBYWHQa8PZCVRkuVGN9qLhy5ef+FW90Kru UrF/W5P0bhXE89Ikyljh4trC4t2PFhisipIcV0LKhCU7iRuytFJJ3xCSa0Pw88YM oyTtJIbXbSTnLPtI22R3 =kI2X -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- I can videotape the packaging process.

Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 06:50:59 AM Fair enough. Thanks.
I now offer further proof: https://i.imgur.com/jjdL6jS.jpg Heading to bed now. I'll update again tomorrow (err, later today since it's already 7/30).

Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: last2stand on July 30, 2013, 08:28:42 PM 82 BTC
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Dalkore on July 30, 2013, 08:47:29 PM PMed.
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 08:59:01 PM Yeah, thanks for that option, Dalkore. I will consider it with the trade-in units. This Avalon (and likely the other one I'm considering selling) I will do via direct sale. I've gotten enough offers via PM and this post that I'm sure I will have plenty of options.
Folks, this is your last half-hour warning. Remember that while I will consider private PMs, the public bids will get to choose if they want to match a PM bid. Regardless of what happens, I'll probably have more of these to sell, trade, or do financing for once the trade-ins are processed. I'll stay in touch. Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: dogie on July 30, 2013, 09:00:24 PM You said you would post the highest PM bid
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 09:09:22 PM You said you would post the highest PM bid This is correct, I will as I state above, after the auction closes. Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: dogie on July 30, 2013, 09:10:50 PM You said you would post the highest PM bid This is correct, I will as I state above, after the auction closes. 0_O Then this isn't an auction, its a blind bid. Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: sahkan on July 30, 2013, 09:19:05 PM Are the bids for US only? Or does it include Canada? I will up my bid to 83 or match 82 since domestic shipping is cheaper than international.
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 09:26:04 PM Sorry, it includes Canada/Continental US, sorry I missed that.
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: last2stand on July 30, 2013, 09:29:05 PM 87 BTC I wanna win that !
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: sahkan on July 30, 2013, 09:29:37 PM Ok than, 88
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: last2stand on July 30, 2013, 09:29:55 PM 89
Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 09:32:03 PM Okay sorry folks, it's over.
I'll tell you what. Since the last bid was 89 and there was no private PM bid higher how about I sell one to each of you at 88? Does that sound good? I'm going to head home now so I can start signing messages. Be back on soon.

Title: Re: [WTS] Avalon 80 GH/s IN-HAND [Batch #2] Continental US Post by: Raize on July 30, 2013, 09:53:35 PM Okay, PM'ing you both. Going to lock this for now, thanks again to everyone who bid, as I get in the trade-ins I may be in touch!
