WTB Bitmain R4 Miner

[BustyKuroNeko]

Hi,
I live in Montreal (Canada) and see that Prelude is from here so will send him a message and see if he got some to sell.
I would prefer to pay in cash because i don't really like the "give us your passport, drivers license etc etc that some exchanges are asking for. And cex.io has a nice 3.5% fee + a trade fee + escrow which would be a must that comes to 5-7% which i would prefer to keep in my pocket     (Don't worry after a few month's i will finally have enough btc to buy stuff with them instead)

So any sellers willing to send you can just post here or send me a pm
I am in no rush to buy the miners but I am not much of a patient person either.
Thanks

Well, small update i asked Prelude but sadly he only has some older units so sadly no local pickup. Or maybe there's another member in the vicinity...
If there is... I will find you... And i will buy that miner from you... 
(Still don't know if it's safe to mess around in this forum but will try my best to control myself (Results may vary).

So what exactly are you looking for? A R4 already in Canada?
Here is someone selling in Alberta

Hey,
yeah i saw that and 2200 cad is about 1600-1700$ US for a used miner.
I could buy one directly from bitmain for 916-1132US (Only batch 5's because they are all out of batch 6).
Thanks

no, you can't because you'll have to add USD $100 for shipping AND 5-15% Canadian VAT.
1132+100+57-170=1289-1402 depending where in Canada you are.
It is all academic, but it is wrong to think of slightly used miners as inferior.
In fact, they might be at par or even slightly more valuable because boards often fail in the first couple of weeks or sometimes later (after 2-3 mo)

There's still a 200-300$ profit on a used miner. But maybe i found a seller; willing to sell for 0.8btc each so lets see if that deals falls through.~ Don't worry will use Ognasty as escrow not to get scammed. 
Thanks anyway

R4/S9/T9 are all hot cakes these days so there is nothing wrong charging a premium in today's market. Even S7's are selling higher than a few months back. The seller undertook the risks in international transport, custom clearance, etc. and paid money down, why would the seller let you own this new unit at original cost? wouldn't make sense to me and it probably would caution me.

Well the guy for 0.8btc each (which he said would be perfect and is ready to ship) isn't answering the pm's anymore >__> so still looking to buy some R4's.
I am looking for 4 units maybe 5 if the price is perfect.
Thanks
