It is quite odd how things are developing for the common consumer. They start out as investors then become debtors and at a later stage turn into refunders and the way things are going, eventually partakers in class action lawsuits.
Thanks to Avalon's vision of a balanced approach, their chip sales have made the following possible:
NPO's This is NOT pre- order. You will be buying finished and tested products.
Price: BTC and USD. BTC will be a mark up on chip prices. USD will be based on production costs related to PCB and machine parts. The USD portion will be minimal mark up.
Shipping: any shipping method of your choice.
Sales service: full time sales service, which would be expected of any reasonable seller. That's because the reasonable seller doesn't have hectic sales service since we are selling existing products and not vaporware. i.e. only two weeks worth of work to satisfy any customer.
Why don't you mine yourself? I could do. But a bitcoin in hand is worth two in the bush. The whole point of Avalon chip sales is to stabilize the mining base. As such, everybody wins.
So what is the price? It depends on a lot of factors, but as a guideline I am looking for 50 to 100% mark up on chip BTC costs and maybe around 10 percent on USD. A very handsome profit in any industry, so there may be leeway for downside, depending on the going hashrate and expected newcomers to the ASIC scene. Similar to Avalon's approach, ROI is very important.
Expected in August.
