I'm looking to start bitcoin mining. I got $100 and i need a good miner for around that price. I got another computer that i can run 24/7 so if the miner needs a computer thats fine. I was looking at the Bitmain Antminer S1 Dual Blade on amazon used for $90. I don't pay for power so thats not a problem either.

For that price range there are few good miners, even for people with free electricity. Most miners you'll find at that price range are so slow it'll take a very long time to make ROI and profit will be pretty small. The S3 could be a nice option that is also quiet and could ROI in under a year with free electricity. Some forum members sell these for under $100, and if you're lucky you can find louder but fan moddable S5s for around the same price. Move up a bit and you get the S7 which is somewhat recent and is a nice option for those with free electricity (but be warned, they are loud as vacuum cleaners!)
