Title: [WTB] In a dire need for an APW12 PSU
Post by: jzk120 on May 04, 2021, 01:33:18 PM
I live in india and i have a few S19 Pros which i use to mine bitcoin.
However the electricity supply is quite poor where i live and i ended up burning out the power supply of one of the miners.
Thankfully the miner is okay when tested using a working supply and i can fix the burnt one by replacing some mosfets.
However i am not sure if it will be a lasting repair.

I am looking to buy a new PSU and i am hoping if i could get it for around $150, which i know is quite near the actual cost price on bitmain's website but i am very low on funds due to covid.
I can pay the shipping charges and everything as well.
I would be very greatful if i can get some trusted escrow suggestions and offers on this since i am quite new to this on here.

Thankyou :)

Unfortunately just about no one india buys these miners because of a few reasons.
1. They dont know about mining
2. They think it is dead and not profitable.

Now even if someone did buy these, it would be in a limited quantity for personal use and no one is going to sell a PSU off from their miner locally.
I know this because importing these miners to india from china has a very lengthy procedure that most people dont know how to follow, even bitmain official website does not ship to india because of this.

Even if someone manages to do the right paperwork and manages to find the right shipping service for it, its still going to be a hit or miss because sometimes the people at customs end up stealing the package. (unless you know how to deal with it *wink* *wink*).

The way i managed to import these miners to india is because i have some connections with the people at the customs and i simply ended up getting lucky and found the perfect seller. You can see my journey through that here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5271685.msg55085064#msg55085064

My only option is to pay the heavy shipping fees and everything and get the PSU from someone outside india.
