9/9/13 This group buy is closed. I will be offering USB Miners(limited to quantity in hand) to my past USA customers at a special promo price from AsicMiner. Only my past USA customers qualify for this special pricing. They will be offered first come, first served to past USA customers only. Once they are gone, I am not sure when more USB miners will be available. I will start a new group buy for this promo in the next 24 hours.

9/8/13 Late night update. No more BLADE orders are being taken as AsicMiner is out of BLADES for at least a week. Any orders placed before now will be fulfilled.

9/8/13 All USB Miners are now 0.16 BTC each or less from me as I have these in stock for immediate shipping. Thanks for all orders placed with me.









9/6/13 Afternoon Update. Blade Orders. My Blade orders were not shipped until Wednesday and Thursday of this week from AsicMiner. I placed orders on 8/28, 8/29, 8/30, 9/1, 9/2 and so on. I have sent friedcat a PM to see if he can offer any form of compensation as initial orders were promised to ship on Monday at the latest. CanaryInTheMine received his on Thursday so I must assume his initial orders were shipped by Monday at the latest. Why mine were not shipped by Monday at the latest, I don't have an answer until friedcat responds to my PM. Thanks. SilentSonicBoom

9/6/13 USB Miners are available for immediate shipment in 24 hours or less(some orders ship same day). No blades arrived today but several shipments arrive early next week. FedEx called three times for three different shipments confused to what was in them :D They are on the way. More blades for recently placed orders are arriving middle of next week sometime.

9/5/13 All remaining USB Miner orders should ship today/tomorrow. I am now taking orders for USB Miners that should ship this Friday, Saturday, or Sunday that I have in hand right now.

9/4/13 Effective immediately, no more NEW INTERNATIONAL/CANADA orders will be taken as I don't have the extra time in the coming weeks to handle these orders. USA orders will still be taken. Some USB Miner orders have shipped today with tracking numbers coming late tonight/early morning. Thank you.

9/4/13 Early morning update. I am having issues with USPS.com website not accepting online postage (just like another US reseller has had issues on Tuesday with the site) or printing of labels Tuesday/ early Wednesday morning. I am going to plan B and printing labels manually plus going to stand in line at post office to pay postage one piece at a time. This has slowed the shipping process somewhat and will make tracking numbers more of a hassle. Hopefully USPS.com can get their act together on Wednesday and save me a lot of time. The earliest USB Miner orders are being shipped out today. Don't spam my pm box "with when will my order ship?" as this slows the process down for everyone. I will get your orders shipped as fast as I am physically able to.

9/3/13 All PMs up to now should have received a response. Some USB miners have arrived today, more are coming this week. Some blades MAY be here Friday for Saturday shipment. I am going to be very busy for next 4 days packing and shipping orders. Tracking numbers will be sent within 24 hours of me shipping. If you don't have a tracking number, your order has not shipped in the past 24 hours+. I will be slow to respond to PMs the next four days as shipping out orders is job #1. Any new orders placed will be ordered for you. New blade orders still take up to 7 days(may be sooner) for me to receive plus 24 hours to reship. NEW USB orders MAY ship slightly sooner in the next 5 days or so. Thank you for your continued support!

8/30/13 Thanks for all the compliments,orders,etc. Please continue placing orders. I will be trying to take a well deserved break the next three days to prepare for an exodus of miners next week from me to you my valued customers. I will not be answering any PMs for the next three days but do have a portable wallet with me to continue placing orders daily with AsicMiner. I have multiple orders scheduled to arrive Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday this coming week. PMs being answered next week will slow to a crawl as well. My priority is to ship out orders and tracking numbers. To this effect, I have taken off work next Tuesday-Friday to send orders out. I am a one man crew as my help(son) went back to college and the wife has about had it with miners ;D  I will be back at this in full force all of next week as I have been every week. My goal for the month of September is to sell 10000 USB Miners and as many blades as possible. Thank you for your help in achieving my goals. Have a great weekend wherever you are and remember Monday in the US is labor day(holiday).



8/26/13 Update I have been given the go ahead to offer the 0.10btc each promo/coupon USB Miners to the other 70% of orders placed in my group buy #7 or earlier at prices of 0.89+. Simply put, if you ordered in the past at 0.89+ BTC each or higher from me in group buys 7 or earlier, for each USB Miner bought at full price, you are eligible to purchase one at 0.10 BTC each plus shipping. If you already purchased some of the 30% promo miners, you will be allowed to purchase the other 70% now. You can place orders for these along with any regular price USB Miners now in group buy#11 . If you bought from me at prices lower than 0.89 BTC each or from group buy#8 on, this promo does not apply to you. Please place all orders for promo USB miners and regular priced USB Miners in group buy#11 . Any new orders will be shipped from me in about 7 days. This group buy is an ongoing group buy. All orders placed should ship in approximately 7 days.

The first mass production batch (sapphire) has finished its PCB production and assembly today.

It has significant improvements in:

Heat reduction: 500-510mA (sapphire)

Stability: We stressed it with 9 Block Erupter USBs in a row without heatsinks heating up each other in a very dense USB hub with 25C without active airflow. No unexpected (non-probabilistic) HW errors ever happen.

Speed: This comes after better stability. Now the hashrate converges to its theoretical value of 336MH/s.

Appearance:
  SMT machine assembly (sapphire)
  heat-sink front-case 2-in-1 logo-ed (sapphire).
  LED added.

Awesome!  SSB has amazing customer service and goes out of his way to make sure his customers are happy.

Getting 13 more USB miners. Reserve for me please  ;D

details will be posted in next 4 hours

Watching...

It is now open. Thank you for your orders and enjoy!

:D

Thank you!

Order for 1 on the way

Interested. I'll see what I can arrange after I get off work in a few hours.

PM and BTC sent! ;D

all I'll say is...
http://troll.me/images/shut-up-and-take-my-money/shut-up-and-take-my-bitcoins-thumb.jpg

pm & BTC sent.

Thanks every one for the orders and words of support. It means a lot to me.

And what about Group 9? I paid you 29PCS 9 days ago for almost double price and up today no delivery, no tracking number. :(  It is bad for me. Will you make any compensation for it?

That's the way that the game works, ASICMiner decides the prices and the resellers adjust their prices accordingly. It is not something that can be predicted. The price of the Group 8 units I ordered when from 0.45 to 0.31 to 0.17 and they are still in transit (The disadvantage of International ordering, and manufacturing delays are part of the ASIC game). Anyway, you cannot expect a ROI on these units (even at the current price).

Nevertheless, IMO SSB runs the best GB for these units (especially for International orders), I am extremely happy with the service so far. Think of your future savings on your future orders :D

I'll take 10 please, payment tonight when I get home from work.

Once again Silent Sonic Boom delivers a package of properly packed and shipped miners right to my door!

Thanks SSB! Will order soon again soon enough!

PM and BTC sent.  I guess I'll have to get another USB hub now.  ::)

+9001 rep for SSB. Helped me out concerning a bad situation I'm in (I won't go into details). Extremely responsive and very flexible. THANK YOU!

I know how that feels, I think I'm gunna have to grab a Rosewill 10 port HUB myself. Ugh, I'm so tempted to add another miner to my order now with the new low price..

0.17? Selling for $100 on ebay a few days back when I checked. Genuine sellers on this forum?

When I last checked it was around 50$, I'm expecting prices go to down on ebay soon because of these prices. SSB is a official US reseller for ASICMiner so yes. He is Genuine, Ebay is just slow and a ripoff.

I'll have 2 good sir!  ;D

PM Sent!

Quick question since you didn't mention it, is this group buy open to anybody?

Your order ships tomorrow. A few extra miners will be included. I have no control over price changes. These were ordered at the old higher prices. Please see my latest update. Thanks for the order.

I believe I have contacted you since this post. Please see group buy #9 thread for update. Thank you.

Thank you. It is appreciated!

Yes.

Thanks for the kind words. You are very welcome.

Thanks for the reply. I try my best. Sometimes things don't work out like lost shipments from DHL that still never arrived. friedcat did send replacements which is awesome.

Do you think that it would be feasible for asicminer to continue to drop prices after this latest one or are we at rock bottom.

Next week they are going to pay you to take them.

Hopefully I will be able to ROI on my shipping costs.

SSB, you need a referral program!  I've been sending quite a few people over to ya!

Order placed!

Look forward to seeing this latest revision  ;D

The blue ones are nice. :)

0.75 sent to 1JtgYexj7oEhauCXuEqcr4bA3zpgiNKXhf

PM with details

Placed another order for 6 more miners. Btc sent. See pm. Thanks in advance!

Depending on the BTC price, he might be able to cut the price in half one more time, but that would probably approach production costs.

Actually, it's not the price that has been going down, but the difficulty that has been going up.  ;D

EDIT: another interesting observation: the cost of the hubs/postage/other infrastructure is starting to become dominant.

I sent you a pm.  Please reply when you get a chance. 

I have sent too.
8 hours no reply.
I hope we are not scammed ;)

SSB has sent out literally thousands of these over a number of group buys.  I know that I've bought from several of them.  He's not a scammer.  Most likely just has a busy schedule and will reply as soon as he can.

Yeah i know that, so i used proper emoticon ;)

I'm buying one or two later today!

ordered 6 miners, Btc sent, PM sent, Thank you.

Second order placed for a further 9 on top of the original 6. PM and payment sent. Thanks again :)

i'm a little confused... sorry if it's horribly obvious, but for shipping, it says:
0.25 BTC  per 1-14 miners
does the mean .25 btc per stick up to 14, or .25 btc total for up to 14?

14 Erupters will fit into a small USPS priority box, so he is basing the shipping price on the number of units will fit into a box, not a per unit, or else you would be paying more for shipping than you would for the miners.

ok, thats what i thought :) just wanted to clarify

Thanks!

3 Block Erupters ordered, BTC sent, PM sent.

Good Lord, dude - you could have shipped me raw eggs and they'd have arrived intact.  Phenomenal packaging!  Glad I've ordered more from you.

When did you order? If you don't mind me asking

This was for Group Buy 9, one of the ones that got hit with the delay from China.  Sorry if I gave the impression that 11 was already shipping.

No you didn't give the wrong impression. Im just trying to calculate how many days I have to add to my order,

Have a safe weekend.

edit -9/1
+1 more Miner for i3lome.  Total of 3
PM and payment info being sent

keep to know more...watching this thread

It's a shame these can't be sold in low quantity for about the same proportional price as the blades (4btc/10gh would be about .13btc/333mh). I could easily grab a few USB every now and then. Glad to see the prices coming down though.

11 purchased, 200$ insurance standard USPS shipping 1.97 BTC

Just got my 16 Miners in the mail today!  SSB is as solid as they come!!  Thanks again!!

Got my miners from order 9 today hashing away with minepeon! Thanks SSB! cant wait to order more haha!

Can anyone suggest a good USB hub for use with these, seems it needs certain power reqs?  I have 6 on the way, but can see more in my future.

Best thread for this is: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=253749.0

Make sure to read ports usable, and also price per port if your like me :)

3 more delivered today.  Thanks SSB!

Support SSB~

Another order sent over ;)

Keep up the work man, we appreciate it!  ;D

I know I was having issues with USPS's site the other day as well, seemed like they were having some db connection issues.

Just ordered and paid 4 units. Thanks for your great work.  :D

Why are we still buying this expensive hardware?

People just remember if u buy 4 erupters now whit the current Diff you gonna make BTC 0.0078 in 24/u
It will take almost a year to make only one bitcoin whit 4 erupters.
 ::)

It's only an issue if you leaving this planet within the next couple of years. If you staying, then... buy now  :D

That is a shame as you were the cheapest to deliver to the UK so far :( But I understand you're doing it all yourself now which you did make clear from the start.
Thank you for my orders so far and hope if you do manage to get more help that you'll let us Brits know again :)

Aww it's a disappointment. I wanted to place more order after my 14 miners are shipped. But it's understandable. Will PM you once i get vPost working :D

Sorry but can I confirm the size of the parcel is small flat rate box (1-14), medium flat rate box (15-100), and large flat rate box (more than 100)?

According to USPS.com (https://www.usps.com/ship/priority-mail-flat.htm (https://www.usps.com/ship/priority-mail-flat.htm)).

Small Box: 8 11/16" x 5 7/16" x 1 3/4"
Medium Box 1: 11 1/4" x 8 3/4" x 6"
Medium Box 2: 14" x 12" x 3 1/2"
Large Box: 12 1/4" x 12 1/4" x 6"

Hi SSB,

Order has been place.Sent info. to your PM.

Cheer! ;D ;D ;D

going to have another order coming over Fri night / early Sat :D

I can't PM you, but I want to place an order tonight, hoping to get in on the last ones before they're gone. I'm looking to order 4-5 of them. Is there any other way to get my information to you without posting publicly? This PM restriction is *really* annoying. Everyone keeps saying that I should be able to, but it hasn't worked a single time.

EDIT: It *finally* went through and allowed me to PM. Ugh.

I received my order today form groupbuy #9. great packaging, thanks!

Will order again soon!

Just placed an order. Thanks!

My miners showed up today! While I didn't get any of the fancy new color ones they are all hashing away quite happily :) Thanks SSB!

Got my 1st order today, thanks a ton... :)

Ordered 2 miners. PM with all info sent. Thanks in advance! You rock!

SSB Thank you,  ordered last Friday Group Buy #11, Arrived today about to test em out

Placed an order for 4 USB block erupters (0.75 BTC) and sent all info via PM.  Please confirm; thanks!

Any orders placed overnight will ship Saturday. I have plenty for large orders as well. Thank you for your orders. I am busy tonight. If you paid and sent a pm, your order is good and will ship Saturday. Many orders placed today shipped today! Thank you for all orders big and small. I appreciate them all.

sent you a pm, not sure if you got it

Received it. PM reply sent. Thank you.

Just got my 3 miners in the mail today!!! I ordered them on the 29th so it was very fast. Heatsinks changed a little from the last version which is cool. I also got all black which is exactly what I was hoping for. Overall it was a perfect buy.

Only weird thing is that you actually put my bitcointalk username on the postage under my real name. I don't know if there was a purpose in this but I could see it being problematic for users with obscene usernames.

Anyways thanks a bunch and I will probably order here again if we see yet another price drop.

Any obscene usernames would not be listed. Glad to hear your order arrived fast. Thanks for the order. I am taking orders for immediate shipping for USB Miners.

Hi Silent! Just send my next order in!
 0.10 coupon miner from GB 4
 0.17 normal price miner
 0.06 postage
 0.33 sent in total!

 lol and as always if you wanna toss an extra in the box ill pay you for it asap!!!
thanks again and if you can confirm at your convinence


  ZipTheRip

Confirmed and order was shipped yesterday. Thank you!

Please PM me your shipping address once again. This will be sent out today. Thank you.

Anybody want to sell there coupons?

I plan on giving a few away to some co-workers.

Will be there in near future shipping to EU?

Not normally. I will mix it up if I can. This group buy is closed.

No. I only ship to USA addresses due to personal time restraints.

Did you place an order? I can fulfill it at the current prices listed. I don't believe you were a past USA customer of mine so you would not qualify for the new promo prices to be posted shortly in a separate group buy. This group buy is closed but I will fill your order at prices listed here if you want.

Received my miners today. Thanks a mint!

Use the address in this group buy please.

Damn, I was waiting for the miners to arrive before I place another order >_<

SSB, you rock man...

came home yesterday to two nice boxes  ;D

5 more requested --

Received 2nd order yesterday. Nice packaging and good delivery time. Thanks man!

Best regards

Second that

Received my first 2 batches yesterday and today! Thanks SSB :)
Got another 2 coming soon, very happy and would certainly recommend you to other miners!

Just checked back in on this to find it closed... I missed out lawl... just as my BTC arrived.

ETA on the next one a new customer can get in on?

I will sell some to you at 0.15 each plus add my shipping to the total.

Excellent service as usual!  Received the 4 usb erupters on Monday; all are functioning perfectly!  Thanks again SSB!

 Received my order (13 usb). Thanks SSB!   :)

got 10 Block Erupters in friedcat Box in USPS Box in FedEx Box  ;D

SSB could I buy a stick here and then become a customer for purposes of buying on your promo thread?  I am wanting to buy up to 50 total.  For what it is worth I almost pulled the trigger with you several times in the recent past. :)

Go ahead and place an order. Thank you.

10 @ .10 with shipping?

No  :D

Best quote with shipping for 1BTC please?

You'd get about 7 if you live in the US if not you would have to purchase them elsewhere.

May I suggest me for international or if you wanted to pay with paypal.

Check my signature for the link to the thread.
