October reels just landed on the site - $30/chip.  I'll work up a few options for 10 & 100 chip sample packs.  For now, I have sample chips available for shipping immediately, $127/chip.

This was posted TODAY at the US BitFury thread.

If you can wait till October (which is likely the end of October) you can expect to pay $30 per chip, minimum of 3000 chips.

If you want it now, then 2.1 BTC is the price. That's just how it is. You buy now, you get it over the weekend, it should be in your hands ready to hash by Monday or Tuesday.

Reference:

$30/chip + end of October = Unpossible

Delivery and difficulty are the main concerns for further BF1 runs and getting those estimated properly will be tricky. Risky venture it is with USB miners but there certainly is a thrill putting something out into the marketplace for the community to mine on. Hope the difficulty window doesn't kill off the USB miners just yet.

Would be great if you shipped to one of your COOP members in us.  Re-shipped from there, makes shipping much better.

With the chip being $30, the manufacturing costs being maybe $15 on the very high side, and then a standard 100% markup for retail leaves us at a price point of $90 USD.

Each $30 chip, assuming they are delivered and running on November 12, will return 0.32BTC in their lifetimes.
When you use just one chip (no marginal costs), You are paying $93/BTC
When you add manufacturing costs, You are paying $45 for 0.32BTC = $140/BTC
When you add consumer markup, You are paying $90 for 0.32BTC = $280/BTC

You can buy Bitcoins today for $120 on bitstamp.  Who in their right mind would pay $30/chip from bitfury, go through the headache of manufacturing boards, and slowly get BTC over the course of 6 months, when they can buy even more BTC on bitstamp right now for less money then it would take to manufacture boards?

I'm actually very impressed that bitfury priced this out so that the chips + manufacturing costs seem to be exactly todays exchange rate on MTGOX.  They must think that contract manufacturers are not good at math/business/economics and will continue to overpay for these chips.

Follow the link below to see that 1 chip, running by november 12, will only ever return 0.32BTC

We do have a few members in the US and will definitely look at resellers should there be enough interest. First we need to clear this batch off decks. One challenge at a time.

I think out of the whole bunch that were fabbed 2 units failed to hash. Pretty good news I think for those ordering BitFury chips.

So the 'possible' but not likely, break even BTC price for 2.2GH/s mining is now ~0.65BTC if you get it today - i.e. unlikely to do much better than ~0 BTC profit if you pay 0.65BTC for 2.2GH/s

That's assuming 20% per diff change, which the average over the last 10 diff changes has been higher than 20% (the last 4 have been almost 30% or more)

i.e. at 20% diff each change, 100 days mining, 2.2GH/s = ~ 0.54294555 BTC
at 20% diff each change, 200 days mining, 2.2GH/s = ~ 0.65738121 BTC

N.B. those BTC return numbers are VERY likely to be an over estimate.

Was the price posted?
