Situation:
We have access to fabrication of K1 Boards with all components sans Avalon chips. Big Picture Mining Cooperative notes there are hundreds of thousands of Avalon chips coming into the hands of the community.
Focus
We need to find out if the community is interested in buying K1 boards sans Avalon chips. We will take $2 dollars from every board sold and pay BKKCoins royalty fees and we will register with BKKCoins on his site as board fabricator.
Response
If we have interest in thousands of boards then we can work with the community on pricing for these boards at a competitive rate. Boards can be available in late July or early August. As this is a group buy we can ship directly to each person directly from the fabricator.
Evaluation
We bring in BKKCoins board royalty fees quicker and satisfy needs for those interested in the group buy by providing K1 boards roughly at the time they are receiving chips or those who want to resell K1 boards with their own chips mounted on our group buy boards.

<RESERVED FOR UPDATES>
I will be personally pledging 10 x K1 boards for this K1 Nano board buy as I will be using them in our school for bump and reflow of chips to boards with our students. As we get a rough idea of prices for the boards and post them on the website for this group buy then people can order. We will probably have to set a minimum number before production can take place and a cut off date for the group buy. If we don't get enough orders just for boards before mid August our BTC will be returned.

Pricing, terms, timing will determine my interest level for 50 or so pieces.

We will have pricing soon. Terms Well basically same as most group buys we say we want 1000 boards for best price we collect the BTC and if we hit 1000 boards we pay for the fabrication up front and that locks everyone in as we have to convert to pay in Fiat. Return BTC if the buy fails to meet target boards by a specified date. Trying to gauge interest first but we are already committed to a larger production run we are doing as a cooperative thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=251831.0 for K1s with chips, so we can actually slip in a large amount of boards as well sans chips at any point and even during production or to keep production going if we have to wait on chips from Avalon at any point. |

1) would you be accepting USD for payment as well as bitcoins?
2) Any plans to host a farm of these?
3) What are the specs as far as mhash/s, where is this info located at ?

DYI I think... because if you don't have chips why buy the boards? We are not doing a fab for people as this is just a board buy for those who might need boards. Need to ask our Cooperative members if we have anytime to collect others chips and ship them out finished but that be another thread. |

1. Our site is only BTC for now. 2. We will have hosting options in the future most likely but that isn't the scope of this group buy as this is for K1 boards only. 3. This is a board buy no chips. |

Why would you take BTC as payment only to turn around and convert it to Fiat? All that's going to do is tank the exchange price on BTC.... You guys make no sense... sheesh

We will have a large production run going and can slip in boards as a service to the community who may need it, make a little extra for the coop members without having to CONVERT these K1 orders possibly. Ok? Also how is 100 to 200 K1 boards value going to some how tank BTC prices. Wow... when did BPMC become APPLE? Hehehe. |
