Title: [EXPIRED][UK ONLY] Assembled ASICMiner Tube (1.25 BTC)
Post by: Mabsark on August 19, 2014, 03:54:21 AM
This offer has now expired due to lack of interest. The tube can now be ordered pre-assembled and the price for round 2 sales has been reduced.

This group buy is for the UK only. It has 20% added to the cost due to import fees.
This offer does not include an Ethernet controller which will be offered separately as they can be used to control up to 4 Tubes. The Ethernet controllers cost 0.0828 BTC each (including 20% VAT). A link will be posted offering the Ethernet Controllers if there is enough interest.
This offer does not contain any power supply units.
This offer does not include delivery costs which will be arranged by yourself so you can choose the delivery service you like or you can collect them in person.
At least 10 people are required for this group buy to go ahead. If enough interest is shown I will post a payment address.

If you are interested, make a comment containing the number of AM Tubes you would like to purchase.

Cost breakdown:
AM Parts: 0.971 BTC
VAT: 0.1942 BTC
Assembly Fee: 0.0848 BTC
Total: 1.25 BTC

For 1 AM Tube and 1 Ethernet controller, the total cost would be 1.3328 BTC + P&P.
For 4 AM Tubes and 1 Ethernet controller, the total cost would be 5.0828 BTC + P&P.

Specs:
Hash Rate: 800-850GH/s.
Power consumption: ~0.9 J/GH board-wise.
Power Input: 1-2 6pin PCI-E plugs per hashing unit.
Size: 25cm x 12cm x 12cm.
Weight: 5.2kg.

Further product information can be obtained from the ASICMiner Tube Sales thread (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=735728.msg8310763#msg8310763).

Where in the UK will these be shipping from after you get them and would collection be possible?

Also what is the price of the Ethernet controller? I think it would be good to put a price for one complete unit including the Ethernet controller for people who would just want one complete unit as I presume you would need a controller to get one single unit hashing?

Thanks.

They would be shipping from Liverpool and be available for pick up.

The Ethernet controllers cost 0.069 BTC each plus 20% VAT, giving a total of 0.0828 BTC each. So, the price for one full set would be 1.3328 BTC. I think it's better to keep them separate in case anyone wants to buy multiple Tubes.

Updated initial post.

Sorry, BTC only.

For future reference, you can buy bitcoins off Localbitcoins pretty much instantly using a direct bank transfer. You find someone to buy from, the coins get put in escrow, you do a bank transfer to the specified bank account, mark the payment as complete and when the seller sees that the money has gone into their account you get the bitcoins. Whenever I've bought BTC from there, the transaction has never taken more than 20 minutes.

No need to sort the BTC out yet anyway, as we still need 8 more tubes to be sold (I'm in for one too).

Maybe UK people are getting smarter :P

Not a dig at the OP btw, his offer was very good, the current batch now come pre-assembled, so only needs a standard group buy now.

I would be interested in buying considering if price was cheaper 800GH is not bad but the price is and considering how much power will use and the cost in UK energy is stupidly high
