Can anyone explain why someone would sell bitcoin miners that are working and profitable?
To get better miners that are more profitable while making a profit selling the old miners.

These are all rev 3 units, all hash at 832 MH/s or higher.
Will ship 3 day continental US.
10 BTC per single, if someone takes all 20 I will apply a discount.
Thanks!
It sounds very interesting, but I do not think that such a hash rate is worth 10 BTC. Perhaps it is worth 1 BTC, but even that is not clear, with the ASICs raising difficulty. At the current exchange rate, they are worth about 5.5btc in trade-in value alone. I have no expectation of them paying for themselves, btw. Trade-in value? Trade in program has ended afaik.

Not true. It has been extended.

Not to threadcrap but do you know where or how to get order with trade-in still? I went to their website but couldn't find where you could actually buy with a trade-in, only saw their faq mentioning it was extended. Of course there has been no reply to the 2 emails I sent inquiring.

I was considering buying several fpgas, but with the lack of response from BFL to my requests to upgrade fpgas, it's almost as if BFL is trying to put up every possible roadblock to prevent anyone from upgrading at this point. A few months ago, fpgas could be had on this forum for simply the trade-in cost. Months ago I guess it'd make sense since you could mine a bit before getting the ASIC. But with diff over 10mill you are lucky if you are getting .03btc/day right now and that will most certainly go down AT LEAST 10% every diff recalc.

I have no information regarding the trade-in program beyond what they state on their website. It says the program runs through July 1.

From the FAQ, "For our FPGA customers the trade-in program is scheduled to last until 1 June 2013." So, about 17 days. Tight timing.
And I still can't actually find anyway on the site to DO the trade in, so not sure this is actually correct anyway.

I received the FPGAs today. They were very well packaged (each piece was individually bubble-wrapped and taped, then put into box of peanuts) and arrived in perfect shape. Shipping was 3 days exactly. They are both humming away. Thanks again, yochdog! Edit: Thanks for the molex power leads too!

I had forgot about the Molex leads.....figured that was a nice bonus for the buyers!

If by discount, do you mean 4BTC each, I'm in. Only if I get an answer within the next few hours so I can place an upgrade order.

Wouldnt three of the new USB miners mine better, be much cheaper, and use less power than these?
Seems like a LOT of money.

The trade-in value is where most of the price comes from......the mining until trade-in is a bonus.
