Hi folks, I just put up 1000 of each: Old Style and New Style H-cards. Expand your starter kits! Also, I'm happy to announce that I've got credit card processing back running again! Best Regards, Dave www.megabigpower.com

Didn't H-cards used to be priced at $500? [WTB] BitFury H-Cards for V1.0 M-Board. Currently have a starter kit with 3 cards totaling 52 GH/s. But would like to add to it. Not willing to buy at current Megabigpower.com rate of $500 for 25Gh/s. Way over priced.

Yeah... and then the price of bitcoin rose 700%.

Yeah... and then the price of bitcoin rose 700%. So the price to get and manufacture hardware also rose dramatically? No. This is called greed. Anyone who wants to support it can buy price jacked hardware (I paid $50 for this last month and I'll happily pay $250 for it today again!), anyone who wants to pass can likely find similar elsewhere. And I can say flat-out that 25GH at that price is not worthwhile, run more than that and the daily earnings are a pittance.

But demand for ASICs skyrocketed along with the price of bitcoin, hence some manufacturers raised their prices. You would have done the same thing if you were Bitfury because it's what businesses do when their product is in great demand.

Dave, which generation of card ships immediately? You mentioned in your other thread that one type is delayed by a few days.

Maybe this will sound a bit naive, but would it be excessive to offer the V1.2 cards for cheaper, simply as a 'thank you' to everyone who bought an august starter kit and then had virtually no opportunities to add cards to it? (october preorders or a small pile of seemingly overpriced cards in november) There are a lot of better options available, and to see these prices SUCKS ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

Yeah... and then the price of bitcoin rose 700%. Yeah... and then the difficulty of bitcoin mining rose 1000%, so shouldn't the price be $350 now? Greed is right. Isn't it enough buzzdave have made and is still making crap loads of money on self-mining. Does he really need a few more millions $650,000 ($1000 - $350 fair price = $650 x 1000 boards) from price gouging smaller independent miners just as Avalon/ASICMiner did? Look where are Avalon and ASICMiner now?

Greed is a tricky business, you can manage a huge payoff but at what price... Anywho, the entire "community" is full of folks looking to price gouge, I don't think we've yet seen a piece of hardware that wasn't sold with significant markup. You find a bunch of desperate people and you'll find just as many salesmen looking to sell fools gold. The whole mining side of bitcoin is utterly toxic at this point and the "community" is a bunch of folks who either got in early and are trying to scam the shit out of anyone they can or who offer good advice but don't sell the same snake oil.

25GHps H-card from megabigpower.com at $1000 == $40/GHps.
180GHps Antminer S1 from bitcoinmalaysia.com at 4.5 BTC == $20/GHps. (assumes 1 BTC == $800).
Definitely not competitively priced.

At this point you may as well give your money to KNC; at least you'll have a chance to get 3 TH without paying $119880 for it.

Look where are Avalon and ASICMiner now? Who the F..K cares dude:) A word about avlon - Gen2 chips are avalable for immediate delivery. If all is done right there might be working product based on gen2 chip for 10 days max. I am not good at math, but for sure investing in AVALON2 will cut your losses we are not talking for profits at all. Not anymore If i were Avalon or ASICMiner i wouldnt touch a computer for the rest of my life ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Sad but true.... Anyway Good luck to Dave and his customers

It's unfortunate that Dave didn't resume taking orders just a few days earlier, before the exchange rate crashed. At $1150/BTC, $999 would've been 0.87 BTC, a fair deal for an H-board. Now one costs 1.14 BTC, too much. If only he could price these in BTC, like miners' future earnings are.

rammy2k2,
I just looked at megabigpower.com and it looks to me like the H-cards are still $999 . Where did you see $749?
