I have four BlackArrow Lancelot FPGAs?  They aren't useful for mining anymore, so I have them in a box.  Do they have any resale value, for development board purposes?  Where would be the best place to sell it if so?  Thanks.

If you are the original purchaser, contact Blackarrow about their trade-in program. I know their current prices are no good but they will be lowered once they start shipping in two-three weeks. They were offering $300 off per Lancelot up to 30% of your order price back in November. I imagine they might still honor this deal since they had such a long delay coming to market.

What's the specs on the Lancelot FPGA?

Edit:  Nevermind found it.  Not even GH/s, hopefully BA still honors the trade in deal.

I'm not interested in investing in more mining hardware, so I won't do the trade-in.  They were originally offered for sale on this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=187549.0

And the PDF manual can still be found at this page:
https://www.cardreaderfactory.com/download/documentation/lancelot%20user%20manual.pdf

It's about 400 Mh/s for each unit, and I have four of them.

@poochone  If you are interested, I'll sell all four and a power supply for $350 USD, plus shipping.  Or you can make me an offer.  I'll have to check on the cost of shipping and I suppose you'll want to use escrow.  I can also post pictures for you and power them on to show they are in working condition.

$350 USD plus shipping for 1.6 GH/s.  Wow, that is aggressive!   Shocked

Good luck with that sale.  Guessing, whoever buys it, will be for the nostalgia factor, or a bookshelf conversation piece.

Yea, you can pick up a 2.2GH ant for like $50?

Obviously it's not useful for mining bitcoin anymore.  I suppose there is a use for hobbyists who reprogram FPGAs for other tasks though.
