So, I'm not much for auctions - care to quote me a price for everything - including the APC and laptops?

[bitblazing]

Excellent configuration. I will you much luck on you sale. That setup is stunning.

 

[RoboCoder]

i would like to bid 6.5 BTC on 12 units

[hackjealousy]

I'll give you 20 BTC for 12.  Escrow required.  I'll send 1 BTC for (two day-ish) shipping immediately upon agreement.  (You send back change from shipping...)

[miter_myles]

(if bulk buyer falls through)

Would offer 50BTC for 12 (escrow preferred)

[Nemesis]

LOL idiot, hes asking 6BTC minimum /EACH for the 12 boards. Do some math....

[bomboclat77]

I would like to buy 4 units at the price of 24.5 bitcoins shipped. PM'D

[Nemesis]

Minimum bid is 6 BTC per board, so 12 boards are starting at 72 BTC. This includes high-quality PSU and USB hub but does not include shipping to your location.

I know what you're asking.

I highly doubt you can get close to that. If you have an bulk offer at 6BTC. TAKE IT AND RUN b4 the idiot change his mind.

[lenny_]

BID:
6 BTC/board for all 48 boards.
Please PM me to discuss details.

[RoboCoder]

Ok. sorry - what i mean was 6.5 per board.

So i bid 78 BTC for 12 boards

[tigerfree]

i hope you lower your price it is not FPGA time ,

but any way good luck in selling it  .

[Wekkel]

I offer 10 BTC for 2 of the lower performing boards.

[||bit]

Excellent configuration. I will you much luck on you sale. That setup is stunning.

 

You might want to update the signature on your profile. You're advertising the bASIC fiasco.

[BR0KK]

I'm interested! Do you send to Germany (Secured via DHL etc)?

How about this as a potential offer:

- I pay for shipping.
- I send you 50% of all mined coins while running hardware 24/7 for 9 weeks (or longer to achieve equivalent work).
- I deduct payout according to any loses due to hardware failure (only if failure is a board - not the PSU which I cover).
- I pay all power costs.

I. Benefits:
- You achieve your prime goal.
- I reduce risk of difficulty increasing & used hardware failure.

II. Seller Issues:
- You lose out on spending any upfront monies on more ASIC hardware.
   cp1. Spending upfront money may itself be a risk if hardware prices drop or bitcoin value increases.
- Uptime.
   cp1. Work done can be measured by the pool and equivalent work can be accounted for with an extended payout duration.
- Trust
   cp1. You can confirm my identity and we write an email agreement.

so price-wise 12 boards = 1 x Avalon batch 3 roughly? Food for thought

[franky1]

so price-wise 12 boards = 1 x Avalon batch 3 roughly? Food for thought

48 units x850mhash = 40Ghash (2 3rds of a avalon for the price tag 288BTC) umm no thanks.

more better maths.. based on avalons SPECULATED batch 3 price of over 88 BTC for 65Ghash
roughly it would take just under 15 FPGA to be a similar cost comparison (6BTC x 15 = 90BTC)

each unit was specified as 850Mhash AS NEW, these units are second hand so actual burnout / current speeds are guesses. but using AS NEW speeds just for this maths comparison brings it to less then 13G/Hash (850mhash x 15 =12-13G/Hash)

so that works out 5 less hash power then avalons extremely high priced batch 3. to me thats OVER priced for a 2nd hand piece of gear so thats a BIG NO from me.

if it was based on avalons reasonable price ($1500 for 65G/Hash) then doing the maths i would still be unhappy buy all 48 units for $1000 knowing that they are second hand. as it also brings up the question. if they are productive, why sell them?

[MWNinja]

I will take 5 at 6.5. Can you fedex?

[Photon939]

If you have 48 units why is the minimum bid now 6.5 BTC?

Market price is recovering, having a hard time justifying a >100 day ROI with current difficulty and piles of ASICs on the way.

If I'm just missing something, then I bid 12 BTC for two units, USPS to Pennsylvania

lol.. I concur.. but again.. there is a buyer out there for everything.. he is selling them at about the right time.. difficulty isn't through the roof yet (did just go up and allchains is forecasting at least another 20% bump 11 days from now).. plus not too many ASICs in the wild yet...

My bid, and yes I am aware of it being below 6.5btc/board still stands... just in case anyone backs out/falls through...   thanks!

[Photon939]

I already sold 24 boards in an immediate "Buy now" transaction, so the auction is only running for the remaining 24 boards. There are bids of at least 6.5 for all the boards except one. So, if you want to buy more than one board you have to outbid that one.

OK thanks, I'm out then.

[Bogart]

I bid 5.25 BTC each for the 2 underperformers.

[playtin]

Current winning bids for 2 underperforming (below 800GH/s) boards:

Somehow I doubt that there are any FPGA boards that make 800GH/s

[thoughtcourier]

Wow, how do I "buy it now"?

I'll bid 5.4 for an underperformer

[Ltcfaucet]

How many boards do you have left?

Thanks.

[goxed]

I just bid on your 2 (up) board

[Ltcfaucet]

UPDATE 6:

37 boards already sold in pre-paid "Buy-it-now" transactions.

Current winning bids for 9 "good" boards:

shep80:      7 BTC * 4 boards
marto74:     7 BTC * 4 boards
MWNinja:    6.5 BTC * 1 board (outbid for 4 boards)

Current winning bids for 2 underperforming (below 800MH/s) boards:

goxed 5.5 BTC * 2 underperforming boards.

So, current lowest bid should be >6.5 for normal, >5.5 for underperforming boards. The auction ends today 18:00 PST.

Does goxed have 5.5 for each or both?

[Bogart]

I Bid 5.6 each on both underperformers.

I also bid 6.6 on one "normal" board.

[mantler]

Did these guys pay 7 btc for 4 boards or 7 btc per board?

[ThePanCakeKid95]

this might be stupid but any left?

[hennessyhemp]

If any of those deals fall through...I would like in.  I have bitcoin, I have desire now.

[rammy2k2]

U have PM

[CoinHoarder]

You guys realize this Auction ended 3 weeks ago right??

Just FYI, seeing this mining rig kind of inspired me (a while back) to see what would happen if I took a more modern FPGA - 28 nm technology (Cyclone V) and used it as a platform for BT mining.  I wound up looking at the C5-A9 (which has 301K logic cells or is twice as big as the LX150's).  Since it is a newer technology, I figure I should be able to run it at 250-300 MHz clock rate - and by putting two of the FPGA's on a card, the resulting performance should be around 1000-1200 MHash/sec (and probably at a lower power consumption since it's 28 nm technology).

Anyways we have a web site located at :
http://www.raspberrycoins.com/

If we get enough interest, then we'll do a crowd-sourcing thing, and make some boards for sale.

The only issue is that ASIC miners are on the horizon - BFL has announced that they have shipped, and if you reconfirm your order, you'll get your product at some time.  Naturally ASIC miners would render FPGA's obsolete (for mining purposes).

[cimpex]

interested -> depends when the miner is ready for sale.
