I guess making multiple orders the first day and paying extra on shipping has paid off. Received BFL single today and took some screen shots to share. I'll admit that I did receive an email when it shipped from BFL asking me to share PICs and I agreed. This has made my day. Good luck to all those still waiting. I'm still waiting for many other BFL Miners I have ordered for friends, family, and myself. Forgot to mention: I had lent my kill-o-watt meter to a friend so I will have to get back on that one.      Powered with two PCI-e power connectors (same as the GPUs)  Stop at Fry's on the way home to get a good power supply.  Here's the miner setup and working away. approximately 50+ GHs (average looks around 54, but need to let it run longer to know for sure)  |

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Edit: Grats!

Looks distinctly... old, scratched and used, not a nice polished surface. Maybe it's just the photos...
Have fun mining! Make sure to update with power usage.

Now you say that, I kinda see where you are coming from! I reckon BFL held off are and still holding off sending out LOADS of miners because they themselves are mining a MAJORity of them first >.< |

What's with the 1 week delay? Are you going to be mining with it during that time?

Now you say that, I kinda see where you are coming from! I reckon BFL held off are and still holding off sending out LOADS of miners because they themselves are mining a MAJORity of them first >.< simple test..... Open it up and check for dust/signs of heat marking. If there are none, then I would suspect the bubble wrap, we have a similar problem in the China factories, we find the Bubble wrap is sometimes CRAP and will actually damage a products painted surface due to impurities in the BB wrap..... Also certain types of poly bag has the same effect...., it depends on the paints chemistry. The other thing is that if you ordered early it should be a 60GH/s unit......... |

That's awesome! get it up and running and let us know how she runs It's been running for over an hour now. Seems to be averaging out around 56+ GH/s. Just wish I had not lent out my killowatt meter. I really need it right now. |

Yeah, I'm not the best photographer, but you nailed it. It was from the bubble wrap and the surface seamed a little porous. I was able to wipe it off with a slightly damp cloth. |

From the auction: For every 1K under 25K on the final sales price will cause a delay in shipping by one week. Please do not bid if you have a problem with this!
Creative, but really? I'm not sure you can actually do that and not violate EBAY ToS... |

Oh yeah! extra burn in testing for the buyer :-) I'm such a nice guy. |

You have already said several things that would keep me from ever buying it from you. |
