Terms of Service

• Mining on your own account at any mining pool (it's your equipment, your mining operation and I'll only manage and host the machine for you).
• You can pick-up your equipment anytime in Delft, The Netherlands (after we've arranged  a convenient time and location for us both).
• You can get your equipment shipped to you anytime at your own cost and at your own risk (f.e. after the first couple of months after recouping the initial investment)
• I'll accept BTC, bank transfers and cash. Bank transfers and cash payments are charged € 50 for conversion and transaction costs.

• If you are a EU-consumer, don't use this offer unless you want effectively and privately turn cash into BTC and sacrifice the VAT cost.
• The 1 BTC order & handling costs is non-refundable. It's for my time and the extra time I'll have to buy from my part-time employee to run my main business. In the unfortunaty case we get screwed by the supplier, you get 0.5 BTC back for time savings.
• The payment for boards & PSU is refundable when the supplier of Bitfury boards refunds the order.

If you do not place trust in either me or www.bitfurystrikesback.com, please don't place an order. I'll only answer questions publicly posted in this thread. I'll only pick up order requests in private communication and only when you're able to prove your place in the order queue (signing or sending with the adress you placed your order with). And of course, private is as far as a DM or email is considered private.

If you do need clarifications or do see flaws in my offer, please reply and I'll create a FAQ and update this post for corrections.


Q - Escrow?
A - For the second part of the transaction. Payment split to reduce your counterparty risks (only a full payment when your equipment is ready to go and you're able to pay in full with the mining output, insurance of the asset against purchase value while it is in my possession is included):
  
   1st part is an advance payment: price at www.bitfurystrikesback.com without VAT + 1 BTC.
   2nd part has to happen as soon order has arrived in Delft or you pay through mining output of your device.

Q - Identification?
A - Offered my contact information to TheSwede; anyone who is seriously interested can pass me a skype adress or phone number via PM with suitable contact times. I live on Amsterdam Time (GMT +1 Summertime). The trading and hosting entity wil be Dioca BV (http://www.kvk.nl/#%3Fq%3Ddioca) - no equipment wil be sent or available at this adress

Q - OP changed?
A - Yes, reduced prices. When finalizing an order, we'll fixate the terms of service as is at that moment in a purchase contract.

Q - Export value?
A - The Dutch fiscal laws allow me to depreciate the value of the miners to zero at December 31th. In January I'll ship the boards as used items with a description and at any value that seems appropriate. When importing as a private person, we have over here a treshold under which no VAT is calculated. Maybe the same holds for you country. In this way you'll have the most uptime when difficulty is relatively low and shipping downtime when it doesn't matter too much any more. The shipping value could also be chosen at a nice insured shipping value.

Hey,

you should proove your identity and adress with John K when offering such a service, otherwise  simply  not trustworthy.

[TheSwede75]

I am willing to handle Escrow and info verification, should OP choose to perform either or both.

Hey,

No problem, I'm willing to supply both my identifying personal as business details to John K or The Swede.

Publicly available is at least the chamber of commerce information for the business I will use for handling this proposition: http://www.kvk.nl/#%3Fq%3Ddioca

For security purposes and clarity: no miners will be held at or shipped to this adress!

I am willing to handle Escrow and info verification, should OP choose to perform either or both.

I'm not in the luxury position to finance all expenses up front. But escrow of money could be possible for a to be determined part of the transaction.

For now, I'll suggest to find the appropriate percentage in escrow on a deal to deal basis.

The Swede, maybe it is the best to arrange a meeting through Skype, in which I'll send you some identification documents. I'll PM my skype-ID but am not available before tonight, local time.

ROI in EUR is very questionable in the short term, given current BTC prices. However, sinking BTC prices will be in favor of the most power efficient miners x the lowest energy prices (these low energy prices do not exist in the NL for the commoner).
