To prospective buyers:

Please do your research in profitability and network speed projections and note that these ASICs will most likely never break even.

I am tired of people selling overpriced mining equipment for prices that will never break even, and even worse... people actually buy them.

Don't be the sucker that buys them from him please, because you will not make a penny off them (if not lose money which is more likely IMO.)

PS: Sorry to crap on your thread OP, but I'm not going to let people entice noobs into buying overpriced hardware if I can do something about it.

I do believe most know that it will take a VERY LONG time for these to make much profit if the price doesn't go back up.

I can only speak for myself for buying these, I did because they are available now.  They are high priced in comparison to the Avalons you purchased in your group buy.  But I have my ASIC's from Canary's previous Group Buy.  Do you have your Avalons from yours?  Just curious.

Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

There is merit to this statement.

However, EVERY investment in bitcoin is a gamble.  No one can predict what is going to happen.  Don't put more into this than you can afford to lose.

As for overpriced, that is a matter of opinion.  If it was overpriced, no one would be buying.  Seems it's priced just right to me. 

If nothing else, put serious thought into buying these, don't buy them on a whim.

Adding ASIC miners only increases my hash rate. As a hobbyist I don't necessarily care about profitability, otherwise I would have looked for a different solution. As the novelty wears off, the price will adjust to that reality.  As with everything Caveat Emptor.

Saying that you are only increasing your hash rate as a hobby is like saying you only go to work for fun.

While it's very true these miners are not the most efficient, they are definitely some of the coolest out there, and will eventually be a part of BTC history (IMO).

It will probably take me 1.5 years to get my return on these, but they make a great piece of art on my wall that is constantly putting money back in my wallet.

today I'm going to experiment with a bunch of these fans: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002OJN250/

I got one of those fans and took it apart and modded it into my desk so that I can exhaust hot air from the computer compartment without having a separate plugin for the fan.  It just plugs into the computer and when the computer is on the fan is on.  It's pretty durable and quiet at its lowest speed.

I am still trying to figure out where to send signed message. Forum PM ?

Folks,
The timer is at zero, but I'm still waiting for a payment address from friedcat for this group, so as long as you don't see a "CLOSED" message here, you have time to sneak in your orders  Grin
However, as soon as I have a payment address from friedcat, this will be closed.
