what are you asking for the hp server? I'm interested in the 2T drives and ssd more than anything though.

I bought this calculator new and used it probably less than 5 times. It's an awesome calculator and in perfect condition. Great for engineering students.
Asking 5BTC shipped.

Escrow is for honest people trying to buy and sale goods without worry of never receiving them. A scam artist would just avoid escrow because of the chance of being caught before ever even successfully scamming anyone. Just sayin'

Tip sent. Thanks again!

Wait a minute...isn't BFL having all their shit made in China? So in essence he's saying that they could take all of the different products that they made for BFL and just start selling them out the back door. BFL could do nothing about it because of the way China handles IP. Or am I on the wrong track here?
Not really.  Their chips are not made in China, and that is the part important with regards to IP.  Other pieces are (probably much less important piece like capacitors and such that will go on the PCB's).

Where are the asic chips being made then?

Same here. Was easy as pie. Would like to know what the tip address is so I can send juggalodarkclow a little something for his efforts.

I got the code and used it and now I have another 12 months added to my Live account. geniusboy91 was a man of his word and juggalowdarkclow's escrow service worked. Thanks for a smooth transaction.

Sorry I have to jump in but this just sounds stupid. Try getting a bunch of people who just spent millions on asic mining hardware to not run them 24/7 is an incredibly bad idea. Don't we want the network hash rate to be astronomically high? What about increased security? Let it go because it's just not gonna happen.

Ball has begun to roll with juggalodarkclow's escrow service. Will re-post when transaction is complete.
73  Economy / Digital goods / Re: WTS: 12 Month Xbox Live - 3 BTC on: January 02, 2013, 02:48:06 AM
I will do it, but you will have to give me the code first. After I input the code and make sure it's valid I will send you the coins.

I meant warranty, not insurance.

And why do you want to use bitcoins to shop with newegg? Jumping through hoops to use bitcoin is nothing to brag about. It just shows how poorly it is accepted by places people want to shop. Just sell the bitcoins for dollars already.

Now if the website sent an email to newegg saying someone bought gift cards with bitcoin to shop there and they pay a 2% fee to do it... And it was sending them 25+ emails a day that woukd be cool. But it dont. Just another lame bitcoin store that ends up costing you more then just using a credit card.

Dude, I don't know what your problem is but it's not my problem. We are just talking about ways we can easily spend our bitcoins and get stuff that we actually want. Never did we say we were going to buy bitcoins with money first and then turn around and buy something that we could have bought with that cash in the first place. We are miners...that's what we do. Guess what? We get paid in bitcoins(go figure). Sometimes we might buy something with those bitcoins(go figure again).

Now as far as bitcoin not being accepted anywhere all I have to say is duh! This is just the way things are right now. There's a million things that need to be done to improve the Bitcoin future, and it's talked about on a daily basis in this same exact forum. I'm sure you can find someone else to bother in another thread. Have a nice day

If I'm not buying ASICs or buying stuff from people here on the forums, I'm usually buying cards from http://btcbuy.info/ . It's a simple site, but they're usually very (very) fast, have good rates, and I've never had any problems with them at all.
Thanks for that link, I did not know I could turn my bitcoins into Newegg dollars so quickly without hassle. Will be trying this out soon!
I paid for half my Christmas shopping with Bitcoins using that site. I put everything together, and I got my Amazon GC within 10 minutes, and my Newegg GC within an hour. I love it.

what is so great about giving them a 2% cut to get a newegg gift card? the mind boggles how one somehow thinks this is great
or easy to involve a 3rd party for no good reason.

i use a credit card that can give me airline miles, extra year of insurance, a way to dispute problems, etc... and i work directly with
newegg to buy things. those are real advantages.

I don't know if you are paying attention...but the last time I checked Newegg does not accept bitcoins as a method of payment.
76  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: There will be no ASICs in January on: January 01, 2013, 03:08:17 PM
Everyone is a scam, but bASICs are a biggest scam and a liars! They even does not send the money back, if your order is canceled. So Butterflies are not the worst company.

Dude what the hell are you talking about? Ask for refund and you will get it.

Not a great idea to experience "buyer's remorse" after buying from a seller with a "no refunds" policy.
In my neck of the woods we have a phrase that we say when we must accept the loss and move on after situations similar to what happened here...
Charge it to the game

The problem with this logic is that the seller misrepresented the content of the bars unknowingly or otherwise, and refusing a refund is tantamount to fraud. He may not have been aware what he produced, but the fact is he stamped the purity and is now responsible regardless of his return policy.


You are probably right as I A.) don't pay attention to laws pertaining to shit like this, and B.) don't expect anyone to enforce such laws. Therefore, I would charge it to the game and move on to my next business venture as I have many times in the past. You see it's not about making everything right because it would just probably cost more in the end. I think the buyer made out good in the end because he is literally out probably less than $10 and he has unfortunately (for him) but fortunately (for anyone that reads this thread) discovered what can happen with this particular seller. I've lost hundreds before with nothing to show for it and I just had to learn my lesson...and charge it to the game. If the buyer can figure out a way to sell the stuff he doesn't want then he should just do it because I can assure you he ain't gettin' no refund.
