Come to the water, stand by my side...

The Vatican mining rig is up for rent.  Rig is monitored and I'm available by irc if there is a problem.

Come check it out - http://www.betarigs.com/rig/2346

Will be adding additional rigs in the near future.

Have a contact in China that I trust to reship.  I've asked if he were available to reship these items, but he needs to know more information on how they are shipped.

how large are boxes, how many, etc...

Presumably these would need to be shipped to a single (or maybe multiple) US addresses for local repackaging/shipping into individual order quantities.

Assuming we have a valid / trusted shipping lane in China, is anyone going to put an actual order together?  I am willing to purchase a few.

also had a question regarding the updated firmware, reportedly giving 500Kh/s in scrypt only mode?  Will these units ship with the updated firmware, or will they be field upgrade-able?

I can also confirm the pricing looks in line (although cheaper) than what I was originally quoted.  the issue as stated is the min 200 unit order and the reship from china to stateside.

I'm in for a couple of units.  I'm also checking to see if I can get USD funding to bulk order and just sell once received stateside.

I wanted to share a bit of who I am and start a solid reputation here...

I joined the scene only a few short months ago, but have been very active with support over on Freenode.  I started mining to supplement my income, but also to encourage alternate forms of currency.  As a small-business owner, I will be accepting crypto once I have finalized on a check-out service.

I began mining with 3 Gigabyte R9-270X GPUs in mid-December of 2013, and doubled that with an additional 3 Sapphire R9-270X gpus before the end of 2013.

I've built a couple of rigs for myself and have built for sale an open-air-rig adapted from a version here.  Any future sales will result in donations back to the original designer.

I've completed a couple of person-to-person sales of PCIe risers without any fuss.  I've also bought some LTC through Paypal.  In keeping with being a good netizen, I try to extend a level of trust that I would hope is returned to me.

I'm likely in for BTC/LTC for the long haul.  I see value in the block chain, beyond it's existing currency.  I hope to be mining and supporting crypto for years to come...

If we've done business together, or I've assisted you in any way, I appreciate positive endorsement.  If we've crossed paths and somehow got on the wrong side of each other, let me know.  I'm sure any disagreement can be settled.

Cheers,
