Cheaper per unit plus free shipping. And you don't have to buy that many / forced to host them.

FTFY. 

Edit:  Not to mention, they are charging ~$0.11 USD per KwH for hosting.  That seems quite high on this kind of scale, especially considering the units have PSU's and all, so it only covers electricity and networking fees.  What concerns me more is that they clearly at this point have more faith in the selling of hardware then of mining themselves.  What will lack of faith in bitcoin by the manufacturers at this point do for the price of BTC?

It would be someone more powerful then that in the mining world Yoshi.   I am impressed with this sale.  Wow that is a lot of hash power.

It's not that concerning if you're of the camp that believes they have a gen2 of their 28nm chip coming soon.

I'm not sure why you made a thread for this, its already been announced and discussed in the S4 thread. There are too many threads as it is. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=796839.msg9865691#msg9865691

unless you want to resell 1PH, I would just buy 1PH from Amhash for 1200. and receive 6% fee hashrate.

What concerns me more is that those miners behind him are actually set up for mining; as in not manufacture, but farming...

Does that mean Bitmain is actually doing "burn-in-testing" on the live net too (before selling it to "us")?!?

Its a US farm so its probably on behalf of a customer.

usually they ship stuff straight from the assembly line for early batches, and if its not pre-sold, they plug it in and mine while they sell thier stock. im totally fine with that IMO.

i resell locally, and mine for anything from a few days to a few months until my kijiji ads lead to a sale.

Probably right

per Month    430.08787145 BTC    $135370.16

with $80 per unit costs PCM = $40K

You would make (if nothing changes) a little over $80K PCM

Still not to be sneezed at, ROI of around 5 1/2 months. (again if nothing changes)

This is based on a cash purchase.

Remember the gold rush, The only people who made money was the people selling the tools to the workers  ;D

Also there is one thing members forget to mention, if bitmain mining in USA then this mean the power price rate is not that cheap as we all think on china.

I think it was not less than 2 cents in china.

It should be cheaper for buying 1 PH deal, you can easily get 0.4$ per GH/s deal any other place. At least another 40% price cut before its worth it 6 digit risk.

The good thing about this is that it host for you so you don't need to care about the loud noise and so on, you just need to care about purely ROI and some luck.

funny thing s that there are two lots available on each customer so if I had the money and could with a friend 4phs can be bought...
curious to see where these miners will end, ebay, private sale, retail from BItmain as used, other???

I'd be interested in how often they are replacing burnt out power supplies and costs associated.

Hardware failure rate is average less than 0.5%

Current S4 has different PSU than batch 1 and partial Batch 2.  Hashing PCB is newer design and the control PCB has newer design and internal cables are different.
