That's probably due to the BTC rate. I will not be surprised if it gets back online with a higher USD price for the S7.

What do you guys think a fair price for a used S7 would be? Is 4 BTC reasonable for a 4.86 TH/s model? I see that newer S7's cost ~ 4 BTC from Bitmain, but they would only begin shipping around December 20th at the soonest, and they're a little slower (4.6 or 4.7 TH/s if I remember right.. I'd check but their site is down).
Thoughts?

I belive a 4 BTC is a reasonable price for a 4.86 Model, yes. Meaning you would pay less than 1 BTC per th/s which is good

I think they are overpriced, especially if you take into account the poor support, broken promises of compensation, screwed cgminer fork, build quality, constant price swapping between USD/ BTC & lack of any info/communication on this forum....

For a model with that hashrate that's a good price (based on what you would have paid for it new from bitmain). Provided of course it works well and doesn't have any weird issues. EDIT: I should say though at current USD\BTC price (like $450\1BTC) it makes it a high $ price.

Thanks for all the input guys! I'd be selling it in BTC so I don't think the USD/BTC price would make a massive difference.

That's unfortunate, though 10 is all you need for an S7 (they actually work fine with only 7). My most recent order for these came about 3 weeks ago and those units still had 12 PCIe connectors.

It's down for me too. Been down for several hours that I know of. It could have been a DOS attack. I know several pools and websites have had DOS attacks the last several days.

Just found a Hosting Company to take a few S7s and run them for me. Has anyone heard of or conducted business with: ASICSPACE in Wenatchee, WA 98801 USA? http://www.asicspace.com/Let me know if you know anything. Thanks! I'd go with one of the Canadian companies for the best rates. Anyway, here's a list of hosting companies: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=622998.0Thanks for all of the inputs that you have given me! This forum has to be one of the best forums for information out there. Again, Thanks to all of you that help me in my Bitcoin journey.

I noticed. I was probably the first one to buy. I've been refreshing the webpage every 2 to 5 minutes since they were down. The moment it came on line, I bought 23 of them. I wish my other BTC was available on CoinBase so I could have bought more. Oh well... EDIT: 9 x S7's will have to sit on the sidelines until I get my power upgraded within the next two weeks. That's if they arrive before my power is upgraded.
