Title: 2x 600GH/s Monarch 1/24/2014 Pre-Orders only $4000, that's about $500 off retail
Post by: asfbhero on February 05, 2014, 07:36:12 AM
I'm willing to sell my 2x 600GH/s Monarch 1/24/2014 pre-orders for a deep discount, only $4000, instead of the $4468.00 that they would cost if you bought them retail. The order will be transferred into your name/BFL Account, and you will get them shipped to you directly from BFL. I know these orders aren't super early, but they are earlier than today, and about $500 cheaper. I ran into some cash flow problems, and while I don't want to let these go, I have to. I think $500 off is fair. Escrow will be used, so both the buyer, and myself will be protected.  Here's a link to the Classified ad I have up on the BFL forums. https://forums.butterflylabs.com/classifieds-981/

In the past BFL raised their prices because of strong demand. Lately they are lowering prices.  That tells you something.

Should of waited.. theres going to be a unloading frenzy once in hand.

Based on increasing daily difficulties. Similar when the 1st 5gh jalapeno came out.

Its alot more competitive now than when the Jallys came out.  Nowadays machines lose half their value in less than a month. Next difficulty 3.1 next week coming up.  Even delays in KNC 3TH @$13,000  will make it less competitive.  Just because alot more people are jumping in,

I'm fully committed to bitcoin mining as a core part of my business plan (trading, arbitrage, exchange, long term profit when btc goes to~$10,000), Part of that business plan is to make sure that I'm at the front of the pre-order line when there are large jumps in mining power and efficiency.  Older miners can either continue mining, mine altcoins till they all fall to the wayside, or just get sold to raise capital for the next batch of even more powerful miners (Though I'm looking into making them myself, Klondike style).

yeah, but I ordered mine the moment they opened pre orders on the first day.  You cant go wrong with being first.
