Title: antminer s1s, blades, controller boards, heatsinks, etc...
Post by: spiceminer15 on November 23, 2014, 11:54:35 PM
because shipping prices are so high compared to the outright value of s1s.

im thinking about selling just the boards, controllers and other parts, because people have expressed interest in this before.

if you're interested post reply. the boards can be shipped cheap

im also selling the s1 by themselves but beware they cost about $25 to ship to most places

How many S1s do you have, how much for them, do you have the original packaging and do they have PCI-E connections on the S1s?

i have about 50 of them. i have original packaging for almost all of them. they all have PCIe connectors


the shipping cost is about as much as the price i want per miner.

it costs about $25 to ship each one in its own box

just the boards can be shipped much cheaper

Have you thought about underclocking? These things'll run 80-90GH at 0.8W/GH, I bet at that level you could stand 'em on end and passively/convectively cool them.

All mine are undervolted/clocked right now. Power is consuming 60% of profit maybe more. Have to check next power bill....

Mine are eating about 54% right now. I think the best settings I know of eat around 40%. Pretty impressive what those things are capable of, given they're year-old machines. I don't have the budget to toss in on any of yours though, sorry. Hopefully someone scoops those up.

Yea I ran them for a long time and made a decent amount of money with them. Right now I'm grossing like 1500 a month but it cost 660 for electricity

Where are you located?

I might be interested in purchasing all of them.  I will provide shipping labels.

If you are in the US PM me, lets see if we can make a deal.

Looking for a range of 8$ to 10$ for each board. (must add like 5$ of shipping per board since you're in the US)
