As you are aware, ASICMINER USB block erupters are one of those novelty btc miners which any bitcoin newbie can afford to invest to experience the fun of mining btc or any alt coin without the need for heavy investment.

Each USB is capable of running at 333 Mh/sec (without OC). Minimum Qty required to place order with ASICMINER : 1000.
At present, the USB's are priced at 1.00 BTC / USB . They are capable of mining only SHA 256 based coins.
The new pricing announcement is 0.6/USB. However, this pricing has not yet gone into effect.

With the reduction of rates, I have had quite a lot of enquiries and so i thought i will throw this on the public forum to guage the interest of the members within the Indian sub forum towards USB Block erupters.

We have a number of Groups Buys happening here in USA with shipping within USA. I can buy it through one of them, then re-pack and ship to India through USPS or any other carrier of your choice with Tracking.

Payment method will primarily be BTC. But might be willing to accept Paypal / NEFT for bulk orders on a case to case basis.

Do post your views on this.

P.S : I can arrange for hosting of these as well.

I don't think investing in the eruptors is a good idea.

Once all the ASICs are shipped, the diff is going above 80million easy. Even at 0.6BTC/eruptor price point, you can't make 0.6BTC back in a year.

Eruptors were fine to use in May-July. But, ordering now and using in Sept - Oct is of no use at all.

I partly agree. But as and when the btc price rises (which am sure it will because many will be out of mining arena), the alt coin prices will also increase.
These eruptors can definitely mine alt coins for atleast next 1 year.

At 3.5K INR, this is a decent buy for sure. Atleast for anyone planning to invest on GPU's at this point.

I think i have mentioned above that they can mine any SHA 256 coins like PPCoin, Terracoin and others.
