Edit; CLOSED - I have transferred my pre-order account ownership to CanaryInTheMine (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=18614) this has been cleared with all current order owners. If you are looking to pass through order units, contact Canary directly, he is a very well respected and honest hero member with several large group buys under his belt. I am one of the pre-registered buyers that have an account with Terrahash.com
http://Terrahash.com registered when they opened. Today they sent an email to current account holders that they will open for orders
ONLY for the pre-registered members on Tueday the 18th of June at 9 am PST.
The product available is already listed in their website, and according to Company rep, they will ship 2 weeks after they receive their Avalon Chips (they already have other parts available). This means that they will likely be one of the absolute first companies to ship Avalon mining rigs outside of Avalon themselves.
Terrahash is also located in the US (San Fransisco) which means no shipping issues, customs and easy to work with customer service.
To make the process easy, and because I personally do not wish to run any more share-purchases out of my home (management, electricity etc is starting to become a possible issue if I take on more group-management) I have decided to instead off pass-through purchase for interested parties.
What I am currently offer is this:
- Pass-through purchase using my pre-order account of the Terrahash 18 GH/s K64 miner, ready to plug in and mine with chips provided by Terrahash @
BTC10.50
- Mining board does not include PSU or cables, but off standard PCIE-power connectors from standard PC PSU (more product info below)
- The purchase price includes shipping and tax, even if I have to take delivery of the miner and ship it priority to the buyer.
About the 18 gh/s Miner Blade: Complete module with 64 Avalon ASIC chips.
This is based on the Klondike 64 design and has 64 Avalon chips. The board does not come with any power supply or cables.
Features:
Size: 20cm x 20cm
Number of chips: 64
PCI Express power connector
USB mini type B connector
I2C board-to-board, daisy chain connector
USB microcontroller with bootloader for firmware upgrades.
The board can be connected to a computer, or a RaspPi board running cgminer through a USB. You can daisy chain multiple boards and run them from one host.
This board uses the Klondike design. More information: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=190731.0
How to order: - Send
BTC10.50 to:
1Kbe3xQbFcq9n79ehgJaQedtpfQr3Q5JPR- PM me Number of Miners requested for purchase, BTC amount sent, Sending address and Transaction id.
- As soon as I have ordered the miner I will send you purchase proof (Ordering will happen @ Tuesday June 18th, 2013 at 9:00 am Pacific Standard Time at the earliest. I will be online at this time to guarantee that orders go through asap. as I believe that terrahash will sell out their first chip order on pre-order day).
- Once pre-order day is over (I will only offer the pass-through orders for Tuesday June 18th) or when they sell out, whichever happens first I will publicly publish all my orders, and if requested your nick to verify your ownership publicly here on the forum.
I have previously ran successful group buys of KNC Miner and Bitfury and am located in the US myself so pass-through shipping should be a 24h delay at worst. At best I am hoping to be able to send a address-list to Terrahash (I have previously communicated with them, and they seem very helpful and honest) and simply have the orders sent directly to buyers without them ever reaching me.
I will only accept orders from the US as I do not wish to be responsible for international shipping of a possibly large amount of equipment. Note: even though Terrahash accepts bank wire and Paypal, obviously any pass-through purchase or group-buy I host will be in BTC, as I have absolutely no interest is becoming a possible middle man in fiat transactions or bank transfers. I do consider them offering the options for bank wire and Paypal a huge plus as it speaks to their credibility, especially as a US company.
Edit: Updated price due to the rising price of BTC and the miners being priced in USD.
