So I can buy a 120GH/s Avalon for little over 400$. I know they use alot of electricity but I rent all-in for a fixed price so basically I have no electricity bill. Could this be profitable? Basically I only need to earn back my 400$ investment, the rest will be profit for me. How long do you think it will take before I've earned back my investment? I know there are calculators online but I dont know how accurate they are so I'd like a second opinion from you guys. Hope to hear from you guys!

Yes, that is a solid investment. At $400, .35/KW (stupid high) AND 1000W power draw, you are looking at a payoff of less than three weeks.

I would say it's a scam, but I'll let you make that decision.

Please DO NOT send me private messages asking for help setting up GPU miners. I will not respond!!!

I would recomend using escrow...

And test that miner before you send coins to seller...

Thanks for the replies! Indeed seems to good to be true, but I'm using escrow and I can test the device before I confirm the payment. So worst case I waste 2 weeks shipping time waiting on nothing....

Right... use escrow every time... If seller want you to send money (if only 25%) before, quit...

Well... time is only thing, you can lose...

Or maybe he found mining is too difficulty and troublesome, and so he left the bitcoin world. Tongue
