[SOLD] 5+GH/s BFL ASIC (Jalapeno) - in hand

[OgNasty]

I have a 5GH/s BFL ASIC miner I'm willing to sell for BTC20.  Feel free to make an offer.    I've already turned down a BTC16 offer though, so please don't waste time with anything lower than that.  Can ship immediately and I've got plenty of trading references.

Sold for BTC19.

You really should have taken the 16 bitcoins.

So you only want 10x the retail price then?

That would be correct.  Go ahead and order now from BFL and let me know when you get yours.

Ok...
So David Perry said he's making about .03btc per day with the Jalepeno at current difficulty, so at current rates assuming you have free electricity it'll take you more than 650 days to have this pay for itself.     And of course, the difficulty will keep going up so you'll probably never get your full 20 bitcoins back.     And also if you didn't spend the bitcoin in the first place on this, you'd benefit from the increasing price over time due to the deflationary aspects.

So to sum it all up, you're looking for a sucker.   I assume you're also mining with this unit, so it's not even new?

I'm getting about BTC0.12 per day with this unit.  Perhaps you should consult a mining calculator.  If you flashed this to the 8GH/s firmware you'd get even more than that...  Obviously this isn't for you though and I have no problem mining with it if nobody wants to pay my price.  I was just offering it to the community because it seems like these are in demand and I would be willing to part with mine.  Thanks for sharing your opinion.
