[Group Buy#1] Avalon ASICs CHIPS! Using JohnK as escrow! FINISHED!

[bigbeninlondon]

...
I will send pledged chips to BKK but I will need the rest for my development over here as well.
...

Ahh!  Giant Pics!  Tiny screen!

Seriously though; all sample chips should be allocated based on percentage of the buy holding, right?  What about these other 22 chips?  No one weigh in?  To me it seems from the spreadsheet that you personally are entitled to .686 or so chips.  

Just want to make sure everything is on the up and up.

Yes but you forget I have my own project and it is a lot of work doing this group buy as well. 8 so far and I will keep the rest for development.  I am only getting 1% (7.8BTC) for doing this group buy. If you guys don't think this is fair then please let me know.

ALSO!

The fee was pre-agreed upon, but I don't think any sample chips were allocated to you in the original thread.  With my small stake it's of little consequence to me, but I feel that that is indeed not what was bargained for.  If no one else cares, it's cool with me, but I think that should definitely be a community consensus, and not an assumption.

In the address field, can I just state "Stumptown Miners"? Most likely that's where my chips will go for assembly. Not sure whats the exact address, you might want to work that out with ryepdx, since I am sure other people are planning to do the same.

Btw, nice form, defensively simplifies the process.

Thanks.

sure that's fine.

Yeah no one mentioned sample chips until recently, I'm with you on that, community consensus if I'm happy then everyone is happy.

Me happy = much faster shipping

I have 12 chips in this buy. I am looking to buy 4 more from someone here to make it up to 16 so I can full a K16 board.

Would anyone be kind enough to sell?

Introducing NEO ASICs -

We are bitcoin enthusiasts who are highly motivated to push bitcoin to the next level and to make ASIC Mining easily available for a reasonable price for consumers like us. As I write this, we are ordering parts for Avalon Clone and Klondike boards to mount your chips on. We are located on the East Coast USA. Pictures will be coming when we have the parts arrive. Lead time is 1-2 weeks.

demo page:
http://neo-asics.com/ - Will be converting to a shop webpage soon.

This is a bring-your-own-chips project. We do not have chips to sell.

What we offer:

Hosting:
If you do not have enough chips for an Avalon Clone then we will mount your chips and give you a cut base on how many chips you have. Each Avalon Clone will house roughly 240 chips so your share will be based on how many chips you put in. The fee will be 2% of your profit + (expenses include but are not limited to, electricity, repairs, shipping, taxes etc.).

Avalon Clone aka NEO:
If you have enough chips for an avalon clone then we will mount them for you. You will be paying for the labor and parts required to mount your chips. We will offer 1-4 (possibly even up to 6) modules for an Avalon Clone.

NEO - Avalon ASIC Unit – Clone (YOU PROVIDE Avalon CHIPS)

From: $800

• hashrate: from 22 Gh/s to 85 Gh/s speed guaranteed.
• power consumption: ~ 180/360/540/720w @ 230V AC

• can be upgraded to generation2 modules once they will be available.

Klondike Boards:
We will also provide mounting onto Klondike Boards if you do not have enough chips and do not wish to have hosting with us and want to have your own mining machine.

That's great and all but I don't know that your group buy thread is the right place to advocate a new venture.

[ragingazn628]

That's great and all but I don't know that your group buy thread is the right place to advocate a new venture.

It is because people can just have their chips mounted here (where the chips are delivered) and not have to ship them out to other people. So they don't have to pay shipping and wait a lot longer

Actually, your prices are right in my ballpark for the first 20.  Also you're on the east coast.  This makes you a better choice than ryepdx whose in Oregon.  What part of the east coast, might I ask?  I'm in Western VA.

I hereby declare that I have traded 30 chips to "strombom". I no longer have the rights to these 30 chips ordered in this thread.

Thanks,

After a time of thinking, I want to sell my 12 chips since they will not be worth it. Anyone up for buying them in this group buy?

Will you ship assembled units internationally?

I'm interested -- I would offer you what you paid for them. Does that work?

[Noitev]

I have sent the address to ragingazn and 8 chips are being sent to BKKcoins. I'm paying for shipping and if anyone wants to chip in, my address is in the sig.

Pfft It is his thread... can do what he wants. Good to have more board makers out there to spread production. Thanks for posting the info Ragingazn I am sure many will be interested.

[ragingazn628]

I will be shipping out 8 sample chips per request to BKK Klondike and keeping the rest for NEO ASIC to experiment if the group decide if it is the fair thing to do because I have a lot of interest from this group buy to have their chips mounted here so they don't have to have them shipped out again.

Keep us updated on if you can get them mounted successfully and built in house in CT!

Thanks! Also I just called "Gary" again to ask where the sample chips were and he said they were still in customs and should clear soon...  I hope it works out a lot faster when the huge batch comes... if not I kinda befriended him a bit so it should go smooth.
