These are basically the same ones that barntech was selling in the group buy forums, right?
Bingo! Link? |

Wait a second! No pre-order? No prototype pictures? Real video and bfgminer confirm?! SCAM.  The scam of the year. |

Thanks, So they previously sold them for $99 a piece? I was hoping for a more realistic price range. |

Realism is two sided.
1. Cost of production.
2. Density vs. other hub based miners.
Obviously you have to do the calculations and do what is best and I mean that for those selling and those buying. We hope to find that razor thin line between profit and ROI. Unfortunately the earlier the BitFury chip the thinner that line comes and given that reality prices have to be minimally worth our time and effort to sell them in all deference to quick ROI timelines and future difficulty.
I have previously stated even with the K1 Nanos that we need, as a COOP, to mine them or sell them and that is what will happen here. We will put up a price not to gouge the community rather to make a small profit for us and get product into the marketplace even if it is not the best price it does help push other vendors to lower their costs and that benefits everyone. If that is not possible we will mine the units so please make sure you do your calculations and make that decision carefully but make no mistake we will offer up miners for sale. The marketplace will decide as it should be.
We are still up in the air for October BitFury chips and whether it is feasible given the slim margins we might simply move on to a newer generation chip (not USB) and try to get those to market. Alternatively we could help the DIY community by fabricating RedFury's with your chips, but again that is not set in stone and merely on the drawing board and given the margins not profitable for people given the time limits and difficulty jumps. Suffice to say we will do what we can to offer the best price but given the realities I am not sure if we can satisfy everyone.

Kevin... a few people have been asking about your hubs in the video? Are they for sale? |

Price? Min. order quantity?
I noticed in the video you appear to be in a tropical environment, hopefully near Thailand for cheap shipping?
