[CLOSED] ASICs group buy by pidobir

[alfabitcoin]

I am not longer shareholder but I will speak up anyway.
Pidobir, make this right. Set up the devices or hire someone to do it for you.
Business trip you say? This is also a business now and within your responsability. How can you leave on 2 weeks and leave things like this? You did not know that you are going on business trip for a 2 weeks? Iam sorry, but this is WRONG! You annonce it just now? Why you need to go for so long? Will that happen in the future? If you are not able to host it then GB should decide what to do next, and to decide NOW!
You should have to explain a lot better, a lot of things can go wrong at this point not mentioning a trust what was perfect till now.
I wish all of you all the best, and hope Pidobir solve this mess and to hashing.

I would like to sell my 2 shares on device 3. 1.8 btc. pm pls.

[Nuddi]

Since Pidobir is not answering on skype, gmail/talk or in this thread I suspect the worst. All those miners will be mining and he´s not on any longer businesstrip than into his backroom.... Checking about sending the other miners will take forever and those will be mining too, etc....

Prove me wrong Pidobir or will you be playing Houdini until 14.10 ?!!!

I would like to sell my 3 shares on device 4  too, for 2.90 BTC.Pm me if interested!

Hi! Important update.
1. Parcel from MetaBank will come to my town at the end of this week (Friday or Saturday). This is good news. Then there would be bad news.
2. Since September, I'm on a business trip outside the city and I will have to stay there until October 14. Thus, self-pick it up I cannot. Perhaps the trustee man will collect the parcel. If he will be given parcel, then on Monday (September 30) he will send the devices to customers who paid for shipping. The devices that were bought for my hosting, will be launched after my arriving home.
3. I know the situation that has arisen with BitCentre. After receiving devices, trustee man consults in the transport company (not DHL) about the possibility of sending this technology abroad. If he cannot find legitimate ways to send devices, the refund will be made or whether the devices will be used for my hosting. On this issue, I will write in more detail on Monday, if trustee man will be given a parcel.
Sorry for this double fail! For faster response to your questions better write them via email or Skype.

Please contact me via Skype or PM. How can you go on a business trip when you know the miners are going to be coming in? This is ridiculous.

Not good enough pidobir.

[frontbit]

Let's stop sending him angry message for now.

And find out a solution for this issue.
- First we need to contact him and discuss (a group chat will be good).
- Below are some option I can think of:
    - Get trustee to setup the hardware for him and use teamviewer to setup the software related   stuff (Consider give the trustee some reward).
    - Get someone else in that area to host.
    - Pay (full or partial) for return ticket to go home and setup himself and go back to where his business trip is.

Thanks.

- First we need to contact him.

This is the most important. Does anyone has his phone number or can we ask Metabank about this?

Fsb4000's internet service in Russia was down for 12 hrs. Just came back on.  I wonder if that is why you cannot reach pidobir.

I just got a message from Pidobir, he´s on an army trainingcamp, which duration was continued for one month.... He promises to log onto btctalk today and sort things out.

My suggestion would be to get some friend of his to get the miners, plug them in and set them up, or some of us set them up remotely. And we would all pay him for the work.

[bitpop]

I still trust pidobir

[Nuddi]

Hi all, here is the messages I got from Pidobir today..:

"My departure is not exactly a buissnes trip. This is a training camp in the Russian army. All reserve officers held them with some periodicity. These  training camp   were to end on September 15. But they increase the duration of one month. Today I try to answer to all our questions on forum. Thank you.


<<< Maybe I'll pass completely hosting another person.
It will be a good decision for me and for all of our customers.
Today in the evening (after 8 hours) I will have to write everything on forum."

[bobsag3]

I would be happy to offer my hosting services- but I am located in the US so shipping would have to be considered.

[pidobir]

Hi! The devices received yesterday. My trusted person - a person who took the device for me, only. He does not have access to my home and can not include all asic in his apartment. According to reports of people who received the devices, even one asic can not be held in the living room because of its noise. Therefore it is necessary to look for another way for hosting. The best option for me and for you is hosting by another person. I can transfer devices to any person who opens the hosting for you before October 14. Where to find this person? If he would come to my town, show to my trusted person a document proving his identity and take the device itself, I will be only too pleased. In my town there is a man who ordered for hosting some devices - he is fsb4000. The best option - is to give devices to him. I wrote him a message, waiting for his reply on the forum. You can also come to my town and pick them up in person and try to move across the border, if you bought a complete unit. I understand your concern. The rapid growth of difficulty no hope for the return of price for devices in bitcoins. But if the growth in exchange rates will be, even with a late start of hosting devices must pay off and generate income. I believe in it.
About shipping. On Monday, my trusted person will try to send the device through another shipping company. If legitimate ways of sending device is not, then I'll do a request for refunds.
If you want to talk to me on the phone and know the Russian language, I can give my phone number. Write a personal message.

[fsb4000]

Hi guys! I'm sorry but I do not have extra seats for hosting  As I understand it, pidobir already have a person that will send the devices. So I'm afraid I can not help you.

[jspielberg]

I ordered two units and would prefer a refund.  No sense wasting money trying to ship it out.

[baloo_kiev]

If I understand things properly, the best option now is to find someone in Russia who can quickly assemble and host the devices. I can ask in the Russian section for such service. Ideally looking for someone who already has Metabank devices. In this case the devices could be hashing the day after tomorrow if pidobir and his trusted person act quickly enough.

[baloo_kiev]

pidobir, have you considered a bribe to the commanders to leave for 2 or 3 days? We're talking thousands of usd here!

[alfabitcoin]

I do not think pidobir can leave devices pluged in for 2 weeks without somebody wathing them. Many things can go wrong and its a fire hazard.
Beside, somebody to host so many devices for 2 weeks, to install and setup them, just to only unistall afterwards and send to pidobir would be hard as it does not worh the trouble.
Very bad situation!

[baloo_kiev]

Beside, somebody to host so many devices for 2 weeks, to install and setup them, just to only unistall afterwards and send to pidobir would be hard as it does not worh the trouble.

It worth the trouble as pidobir has about 3TH now just collecting dust. In 2 weeks it's about 150BTC or 20k USD. I would eagerly receive, assemble, setup, host for 2 weeks and send them back for 10% fee (I estimate it to be no more than 3 total days of work), if only I was located in Russia. Anyway, those are just my suggestions and I'm not going to fight for my 1.smth BTC here. Happy mining LOL!
