[WTB][Canada]Antminer S7, Antminer S7 Coupon, Avalon6, EVGA PSU

[VirosaGITS]

Let me know if you need any more PSUs to power all these miners you've been picking up lately

Trying to pick up.*

But i'm not sure i will pickup more server PSU since their fan control is messed up. It look like the fan speed and the noise is load based not temp based so it doesnts matter if its in a 10c room, they will still make tons of noise.

So for this i am running that at 50% load, at which point they are pretty quiet. I just don,t want to buy more hardware that make a lot of noise anymore. If i can't get it under 60dB then i'm not buying it.

I am in the same boat as you. In Canada and looking to buy some S3 and S5 but sellers are asking ridiculousness prices.

Locally the prices are even worse. There are sellers selling used gear which cost more than new gear. 

Its a sellers market right now with mining equipment.


S5 you will probably never get for only 1 BTC, but you might get an S3 for around $100 CAD or so. Those in most areas of Canada don't make much money if the miner is paying for electricity but the S5 is still profitable for most people.

The S5 price has gone down 25% so S3's price probably went down quite a bit as well. I'd pay more than 1 BTC for a S5, it stand to reason they are worth a bit more than 230$ USD at the moment.

An S3 for 100CAD shipped/delivered would be of interest to me, but i could also be interested in a "s1 to s3 upgrade kit" kind of by using existing S3 parts without the heatsink, though i'd probably need the fan as well, and if they're in Canada i might as well grab the whole thing. But regardless, i'll buy some hardware, i'll take the best deal and i'm patient.

Hopefully someone come to me with a reasonable deal before i get another loud S4 ^_^".

What province are you in? You can probably get an S3 for close to $100 Cad. I've seen some sellers locally.


The S5 should have gone down 25% however its price remains constant at around $320USD or so, which is what Bitmain was selling at. The S5 is still profitable so its going to be hard to find someone desperate enough to sell one.

The one i got from bitmain was 430USD including shipping and import. The price in BTC was 1.65 for the unit + shipping, but that was before the last BTC crash.

I am in Québec, next to Ottawa, i put an add on Kijiji but i didn't get a reply. Not for S3/S5's anyways. I would mind picking up a few S3's at that price or a S5 for 400 CAD.

If you really want an S5 badly enough your only choice right now is that other thread on here where he is selling 30 S5 for $320 USD each. He's in Ontario probably so shipping will be cheap for you.

I'm not in any hurry. I'm looking for deals and am open to offers. If Skycoin Lab's S5's are v1.91 i could be interested close to that price, but i'm not that interested in buying one for 330$~ total, and the price is not good enough to bother asking yet, but i will probably make an offer sometime soon, see if he can sweeten the pot.

Otherwise i might just pick up some deals for S3's. Where do you go about finding those local S3's you're talking about? Just the fact they would be located in Canada would cut the shipping cost in half and may prove of interest.

I have S5's for sale for $320 and S3's for $70 Buyer pays shipping. PM me if you interested

7 x S3 Units and 4 x S5 units left to sell

I am still interested in your S3's and perhaps i could could pick up a S5, but did the situation since the last time, where you gave me a 40$ shipping per unit quote, change?

I'm looking at a 330$ shipped for a S5 deal at the moment from skycoin lab and would be interested in S3's at 85$ shipped for S3's.

[SunnyIgor]

Wow you'd pay 330 for s5 shipped right now?

in a couple of months they will be 200 or 1 btc I think.

S7 impact will be huge!

I my self am also looking to add 20 pieces of S5 Miners but I will wait at least for the panic sellers, when diff goes up 10 % or more a couple of times after each other.

I live in the EU so no competitetive advertising or anything

If S5 offerd to me I have to check numbers with diff increase 5% (could be more) and then it is hard to make a profit even with free electric

And now a bit less. With all the announcements with the competition to Bitmain being made, it look like within a month or two, we'll have another hardware war on our hands. With this being said, this would equate to a sharp difficulty raise so, right now i'm not even sure i want to pay 0.22$/GH.

I might still be interested in a deal like two (v1.91 PCBs) S5 for 500$ if its like already in Canada or shipping cost is eaten.

But i might very well just wait for panic sells since sellers at the moment seem to think like they're gods right now and don't need to make an effort to sell unless you "make them worth their while".

I guess it's still a seller's market but with the hardware coming, we'll be looking at S5's taking S3's position. S7 taking S5's position and non Bitmain hardware take the lead or maybe Bitmain will come up with something interested labeled S7+ or something.

[philipma1957]

Well three s-7 will run on one controller.

That is about 14 th for about 3600 watts

[tarzan2]

i know you said good condition, but imma leave this here for you to consider..
i have an s5 with some issues.. im not sure exactly whats wrong with it, but i do know one of the hashing boards is totally fine, and the controller board was recently replaced by bitmain.. i could sell it to you on the cheap & low if your interested..

Sure well you can give me more information, i'm not sure about forking over too much money for such unit for i'm listening. Or if you have a thread where you're already talking about it. That would work too.

Information such as, whats going on with the miner, what PCB version the 2 PCB are, how does it behave, why is one of the board dead, etc. Such information would be needed.

Feel free to PM etc.

all i can tell you is that i got the miner from someone here on the forum and within 3 days it began to malfunction.. for what reason i do not know, but it would go down to 0 hashrate for 1 board with (------) in miner config for that board.. it would stay accessible via LAN..
eventually, however, (as in the next day hehe) the 2nd board would also hash down to 0 and the miner would be on, but not mining at all.. it would start mining whenever it was rebooted or reset in any way, but eventually go back to 0 within 15 min or so..
i sent the controller/hashing boards to bitmain, and i know they replaced the controller one.. i dont know what they did to the hashing boards, but they are basically the same as before..
i reassembled it, but tbh pretty badly at that.. i would take $100 including shipping if that works for you

edit: i forgot to mention ... it does mine now at half capacity.. consistently

Sure, can you get on IRC or Skype or something? I got a few more questions but half one is a bit like of a S3++ so i'm interested. Lets take it to PM.

I'm in Ottawa and sold S3s in June to Montreal. It looks like the prices have held up since then.

[VirosaGITS]

Thanks to users who made me offers, i'm still looking to pickup another deal or two within a week. Please contact me if you have some tasty offers.

Sound about right, they were 0.3BTC~ then. They seem about 0.25BTC~ now. So fairly good on retaining their value when you consider people are trying to sell small batches of S1's for 5$ a piece.

It was a guy dumping all this S1s and S2, the S1 lot for 11 was 90$ or so, the S2's were 100$ each. Would be nice face to face but if you ship them, then not so much.

Yes, indeed. Otherwise i would of taken the S1 lot i think. I'm thinking of building a rack of S1 with no fans and use those to replace my electric heating for the winter in my room.

They would be completely silent and cover the heating cost of my room for winter.
