A member had to request a refund so I now have one $125 rebate coupon that I am selling for $75, please contact me with any questions.  I hope everyone is enjoying their miners.

I am coordinating a group buy (GB) of shares from Dragon Miners provided and hosted by pcfli: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=514758.0 .  Hashing will begin once 1T of hashing power has been sold.

Price ranges from $3.65 per Gh/s to $3.10 per Gh/s.
Cost breakdown
1 share = 25 Gh/s = 0.1893 BTC ($91.25) for 1-9 shares
10 shares = 250 Gh/s = 1.7894 ($862.5) for 10-19 shares
20 shares = 500 Gh/s = 3.3714 ($1625) for 20-29 shares
30 shares = 750 Gh/s = 4.8236 ($2325) for 30-40 shares

The wallet for the payment of shares for this GB is:
Removed

BTC-e will be used as the USD/BTC conversion.

The group will determine the mining pool through a weighted vote.  Simply tell how many shares you wish to purchase and which pool you wish to mine.  Provide your TxID in your post as well.

Payouts will occur on the 1st and the 15th of the month.  The management fee is 3% which decreases by 0.5% after every 2 payouts.  The maintenance fee is $250 and will be paid to pcfli.  

Minimum term of this group buy is 3 months and the maximum length is 6 months.  At 3 months the group through a weighted vote can determine to continue mining or sell the miner with priority going to a member of the GB.  At six months the miner will be sold if not sold at the interim vote.  Again a GB member has priority if agreed upon by the majority of the members through a weighted vote.  The profits will be split between the GB and shipping costs covered by the GB.

I take no responsibility for hardware failures.  Warranty issues will be handled by pcfli.

Who am I?
I am nobody really.  I am not vetted although it is not for lack of trying.  I contacted a few members previously known for these services, but did not receive a response.  I also asked a few reputable escrow providers if they provided vetting services, but they were not interested which I can understand.  I am not a Hero or Senior Member.  I unfortunately have not been around since Satoshi sent the first BTC.  I have only been around for a few months, but I try to keep my posts somewhat substantial and don’t worry about my activity count or how many gold coins I have under my name.  I do have respect for those who have contributed to this community and have been here for awhile, but I am not racing to see how fast I can join their ranks.

So how can anyone trust me? Sadly, there is nothing I can say that will make me trustworthy only time can do that.  I have paired with a vendor that has shipped close to 100 units and has given his approval for this GB.

No contact through Skype.  Initial contact will be made through the forum then if needed and agreed upon email maybe utilized as a form of contact on a case by case basis utilizing the email on my forum profile.

I am about 100% transparency and enjoying BTC.   Why? After getting greedy and getting a dose of reality in a scam I realized I had approached this community for the wrong reasons so hopefully now I can enjoy BTC mining and spread some hashes around.

But but the Newsweek reporter found Satoshi in California.  How can you say he is gone?  The news is ALWAYS right.  Nice write up.  I personally enjoy the anonymity of not knowing who created such a revolutionary form of currency or "property" if you live in the great US of A. 

This confirms Cantrip has purchased the final $125 rebate coupon. Thank you for your support and enjoy your miner.

I am not supporting HF but if the Pepperminig crew has an opportunity to supply the community with quality miners especially if the chips are going to waste in the hands of the manufacturer then more power to them. I will support a legitimate community project any day and Mr. Teal had proven himself.

I am down to 1 $125 rebate coupon. Thank you all for purchasing them and thanks to pcfli for offering them to me to compensate me for my loss. Be sure to leave positive trust feedback after receiving your miners from him to further improve his status as a legitimate retailer.

This confirms gallery2000 has purchased 4 $125 rebate coupons. Thank you for your support and hope you enjoy your miners.

It would be great for proven DIY miner manufacturers to supply a steady stream of products before the chip company as long as HF doesn't screw them over like they have done to their other customers. I also hope your miner gives HF a run for their BTC. Good luck guys.

I am more than happy to help you out just send $300 converted to BTC using BTC-e to address1BxfGpHkgKvZWoQHZN1NzagE3hTpjm33LX the same wallet in my profile and that has been used for all previous transactions. Then simply post or PM me the TxID so I can notify pcfli. Thanks for your interest.

You can always buy a rebate coupon and save $50.

Not a problem. Your primary concern should be your business which is your livelihood as I told you before this began. Philanthropic efforts on behalf of idiots should be secondary. I don't want to sound ungrateful but I completely understand the importance of a solid revenue stream.

I am extremely grateful for the opportunity, support you have given to me in my time of need.

So would BTC lost to a scammer be considered a reportable loss? I sent BTC for a miner that was never delivered. Just interested in opinions. I am going to an accountant for my taxes now, jeez.

I wish I wasn't working. It would be interesting to put some faces with usernames and to talk with other BTC enthusiasts, fanatics face to face. None of my friends know what the hell a bitcoin is or how it they can be I used.

Were you able to use the other rebate coupons?  I do not want anyone to be dissatisfied.  I have stated this in some of my PMs: I am not here to make a profit.  I merely want to recover a portion of the BTC I stupidly, moronically lost because I didn't use escrow and made a deal through Skype. So I am more than happy to work with anyone to ensure complete satisfaction within the terms set by pcfli.

Thanks to those that have purchased the coupons.  I greatly appreciate your support.

Hopefully, he will return soon.  He may want to remove his bank information and paypal until the PBOC ordeal is sorted out and verified.

I have sold 5 $125 rebate coupons for this group buy.  Thank you Jesehl, Varakunai, and Jleefly very much for you support.  I only have 5 more to sell.  Here is a little extra bonus: everyone that purchases a $125 rebate coupon including the 5 already sold I will place your name in a "hat" and randomly draw a winner for 1 no 2 of the $50 rebate coupons.  Your name will go in the "hat" for each coupon that you purchase to increase your odds of winning.  I will video (no screenshots) this process if there are any questions about the legitimacy of this drawing.

Per pcfli's terms one rebate coupon per miner and they can not be combined with any other discounts he is offering.  Thanks to pcfli for allowing me the opportunity to recover some of money lost in a scam.  Again thanks to those that have already purchased the rebate coupons.

Unless, I missed it there is still not an English version.  That happens to be the same chip count as the lketc blades.  Interesting.

It is about to change some with the latest batch if these are coming from lketc.com which I believe most of them are.  They have redesigned the case and made some other changes.

Fine with me. All you need is the approval of the man with the miners.

I will have six more coupons once this deal is complete.

PM sent.  Thanks for your interest.
