And Introducing to the GB Forum: Auto Reservations!
Thank you to vetted GBC thomas_s who has worked hard to put up a site to automate reservations so that there's no confusion and no double orders! It'll also make auto-export to spreadsheets much, much simpler for GBs, going forward.
www.dzminercoop.com==
Please contact thomas_s for questions and payments or to manually confirm your reservations, as I'm in more of a Miner Cooperative Support Role for this particular new model Group Buy (and potentially others).
If you have questions about Round 15 unit hosting please contact bobsag3.1 share is $110 per share, which gives you 1/50th of the miner's hashrate.
Since this is a 550 GH/s unit, that works out to 11 GH/s per share for R15/R15B. Unit will be hosted at bobsag3 at the world's lowest hosting/management fees, for a limited time. This should be shipping between mid. November and the end of the month (estimated). Incremental and monitored Overclocking will be implemented as we'll be keeping things nice and chilly.
Your share price includes acquisition of an estimated 20 minutes of UPS/Battery Backup + Gas Generator backup, included in the discounted share price to keep BTC flowing during: short outages (blackouts), voltage sags (brownouts), and voltage spikes, as well as to provide power filtering. The special purpose Gas Generators our co-op buying power allows us are meant for providing power during longer outages.
Thanks once again to bobsag3 for making these KnC Jupiters available to the GB forum and the DZ MC. 11/10 PM update from bobsag3 - In addition: the R15 funds will pay for an additional APC 900W UPS with Battery Bank *and* a *second* gas generator just for the DZ Miners Cooperative. ===
If you have questions as to how this whole darn at-cost, Democratic Miners Cooperative that's also a mesh network works, please send me a PM or state your concerns publicly as there's nothing to hide in this co-op.
Only hurtful or trolling posts will be deleted as we welcome all valued opinions, insights, concerns, and improvement ideas to improve

Once sales begin, Refunds are available up until unit ships at 1.5% restock fee.
We vote on all buying, shipping, and resale decisions as well as vote on the month to attempt equipment resales after 5-7 months of operations.
