On a side note. (I'm likely to get shot down on this quick) but just for the sake of the question....could a person (supposedly) just do the Group Buy for the Miner w/o going for the hosting?
For this group buy, no! It's a package deal.

yeah again just me in that i'm a legal miner in the states can get 15.5% off for 2 years..should i only go with the 2 vs the full 5 years (at 25%) ....for the biz....in equip depreciation on top of this w/o hosting (or hell with hosting it applies too i guess) .... just playing with numbers....whatever edge i can make in this i guess
anyone know off hand the price of these units outside of the GB and hosting deal as a comparison? Need to see the diff in value of GB and hosting vs what the units would go for w/o the group buy and hosting etc....what % savings we talking about here before adding in electric savings (in my case)
(again having fun playing with the math)

well the only other way to beat moq is get one from kilo17 .
I want one in house so I am getting one from him hopefully his come in this friday and he ships one to me no later then sat.
but the world of asice is always a bit unknown.
My list of ifs are as follows
1)kilo17 gets his gear on fri
2)he ships me one fast
3)it arrives to me in nj
4) I test in out on Mon -Tues next week
5) I like it and order 2 here
6) all of the while coins stay pretty steady in the 320 -340 spot
7) all gear is on line and coins whale back to 1200 or more

this group buy is run great
9) GND is also great and hosting works fine.
10) By April I will have 3x my money due to the rise in coins
11) I sell off all gear for my summer power price rise.
12) I take a nice long vacation to Australia visit all my wife's family there. (80 or so people)
