The price is subject to change and is based on the exchange rate when each machine is purchased. 6995usd/54btc = price in btc. Just wanted to make this clear. We still pay for shipping.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
The escrow address for Adeel06's KnCMiner Jupiter group buy is:
17CYWbhoYbGq93x1bJPhk8m4NyMnqJaLAk
Please state and agree to the conditions (if item is received damaged, item lost with tracking, customs fee etc) beforehand.
If possible, GPG sign your agreement to prevent any discrepancies later on and please ship with tracking to prevent problems during delivery. GPG signing is not a requirement, and any verbal exchange in the form of private messages or posts on bitcointalk.org, or email is effective as a statement of condition.
Do note that I am only responsible for the funds up to the point it is sent to KnCMiner. Any losses incurred by KnCMiner's or Adeel06's failure to ship/reship will not be borne by me, but I will release the following data to aid in litigation actions.
In addition to that, I confirm the receipt of:
1) Photo of Adeel06's School ID 2) Photo of Adeel06's Driving Licence
The fine print: This Contract is solely generated for the purpose of facilitating the transaction between the seller and the buyer, which refers to the pseudonyms used on bitcointalk.org. The escrow holder, John, assumes and gives no liability or guarantees on the satisfaction of all parties involved, although he agrees to mediate and facilitate the deal to the fullest extent he is capable of. On the event that any problems arises, he will release the escrow to whichever party that presents him with the most convincing proof and/or after an open discussion with others or theymos. The verbal acceptance by both parties (or the failure to reject) and the sending of Bitcoins to the escrow address above constitutes the acceptance of the terms and conditions stated, and the activation of this Contract.
Please understand that I am assuming the risk of holding the escrowed Bitcoins, and I am using my own time to facilitate this transaction. I am imposing a fixed and nonrefundable fee of 2% for this transaction, to be deducted when the funds are moved, regardless of the completion status of the group buy.
Thank you.

... Shareholder Benefits: ...
All electricity costs will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All ISP (internet) fees will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All cooling costs will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All labor costs will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All security costs will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All shipping fees will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All shipping insurance will be paid for by Infinite Hash. All customs duties will be paid for by Infinite Hash.
In case of hardware failure:
Both myself, my younger brother and my father are extremely computer literate and engineering-inclined. If we are unable to solve the problem that the hardware is facing, the machine will be sent back to KnC for repair. Repair costs do not however come along with labor costs. If this is required, payment of 54/70th of that machine will come out of that machine’s following payable cycle. Labor costs include everything that we are able to do on our end and everything that we will to do optimally run these machines.
I found a contradiction. You stated 'All labor costs will be paid for by Infinite Hash.', but then go on to say that I(the shareholder) will pay if you can't solve the problem? What is your final position on this incase the issue were to arise a few months down the road. What happens if you end up buying ONLY 3 machines? Does that make the whole operation a failure and you start paying less and less attention to it? Is there a break-even point on machines we should be aware about to keep your interest. It's human nature to be passionate and intrigued initially, but 3 months down the road is a long time from now ( in the computer world ). Where can I find more information about KNC claiming they will hit there September deadline?

I can see how this may be viewed as a contradiction but what I meant is that all labor that can be performed by us is covered. If we only reach 3 machines, this project will not be overlooked as that is what my promise is in selling these shares. Thank you, Adeel

We get a portion of each computer. After paying for shipping and customs the amount is smaller than I intended but if these machines do perform as they should, it should work out for all parties involved.

Also TheFuneral, as far as a break even point goes, in the first month each machine according to today's difficulty would earn around $28,000 USD, which is a large amount and means that we would reach our break even point very fast. Since the difficulty will obviously rise by September/October, I am thinking that an estimate that takes into account all that could happen to negatively affect income from this project should place us at about a month after running the systems. If this actually is attained then the following 23 months are profit, something that would be great for all parties involved.

This brings up another question. When will the project end? You just said 23 months. Is that a fixed number or just a number you used for approximation? I assume we'd run this till all parties are losing money in which case we'd end it? What happens to the old machines? Would they be sent to us?

If it is no longer profitable we will discuss what to do. I can't send a machine to one person if 20 people paid for it, so we might sell them and divide the money equally per shareholder per machine.

I meant 23 months + that month, equaling 24 months or 2 years. If the machines are still profitable after 2 years, i will continue running them until they are not. Adeel

Thanks for your prompt responses, I appreciate it.
What about the current demand? If I send the money today does that mean you then goto the site and buy it. Won't that put us on some queue and put us behind everyone else who already bought them? Did KnC already get enough supplies to support their current demand or would there be another batch? This seems common with ASIC devices.

I go to the site and buy a machine once we reach the $6999 price point for a jupiter from KnC. They told me that once they start they will be able to meet their demands. No problem on the fast response time.
