Auction Rules(very similar to bitcointalks auction rules)
Post your bids in this thread. Prices must be stated in USD per set. You must state the max number of sets you want.
I reserve the right to reject bids.
So if someone bids for 18 sets @ $5000 USD. and this is the highest bid, then he'll get all 18 sets. If the two highest bids are 18 sets @ $4000 USD and 1 set @ $5000 USD, then the first person will get 17 sets and the second person will get 1 set.
The notation "2 @ 5000" means 2 sets for $5000 USD each. Not 2 sets for $5000 USD total.
- When you post a bid, the bids in your previous posts are considered to be automatically canceled. You can put multiple bids in one post, however.
- All bid prices must be evenly divisible by $25 USD
-
The bidding starts at $2100 USD.- This auction will end as per the time listed above.
- If two people bid at the same price, the person who bid first will have his slots filled first.
- Bids are considered invalid and will be ignored if they do not specify both a price and a max quantity, or if they could not possibly win any sets
If these rules are confusing, PM me or don't bid.
You must pay for your sets within the timeline listed above - Otherwise your sets may be sold to someone else.

Escrow accepted!- Escrow is accepted, however, these are the terms:
- Your escrow agent will need to ensure the correct amount of USD (as BTC) is sent to us, so its recommended this auction post is given to him so they can read in full- especially this section, he/she needs to agree to these terms before acting as an escrow agent.
- As you can understand the BTC price fluctuates, between payment, shipping, and the escrow being released
- Our supply chain deals in fiat only - USD and RMB, so we cannot accept BTC fluctuations/risk in the market
- Whatever the BTC amount you send to the escrow agent, e.g. $2,400USD (4.297 BTC at time of writing) you are to send 20% MORE to the escrow agent
- This ensures if BTC drops within that amount, the correct amount in USD will be past to us (we dont hold BTC, we need to immediately transfer into USD/fiat etc) - e.g. as per the above, you send 4.297 BTC+ 20%(0.8594) = 5.1564BTC to the escrow agent.
- Your escrow agent, at the point of releasing the funds to us, will use http://preev.com/ to convert USD into BTC (including shipping etc) - and will send us the amount of BTC + shipping that equals your USD bid price + shipping costs agreed in the escrow agreement.
- If your items get stuck in customs / border controls / duty tax holding, et al for international shipping, we will hold no responsibility. However we forsee no issues within Europe - this might only apply to International shipping, but we dont see it being an issue at all! However WE WILL do our very best to ensure smooth delivery, but, you can understand we cannot be held accountable for delays, - if such an event happens - your escrow agent will need to release funds, and you'll need to wait for your item to clear customs etc - please note we will honor a refund policy if the items are DOA and returned to us (we have a US agent who can accept returns).
- Only reputable escrow agents who have been active for 1-2 years will be acceptable, they must abide by the following rules listed in this section
- All shipping is trackable online
- Once item is received by the buyer, escrow agent is to release funds by default within 24 hours of that reciept, (or sooner if given OK by buyer) - no exceptions (we cant be waiting days / weeks for escrow to clear as we deal in fiat)
- I hope this makes escrow fair for everyone!
Accessories list per 10 miners - you'll need to obtain the following:- 2 x 360w PSU with 12v supply, 1 can power 5 miners easily. e.g these: http://goo.gl/Lek5RP
- 2 x computer power cables that you can strip and wire into the PSU
- 12v wiring cable at a length of your choice (to connect miners from PSU's)
- 12v 2.5mm inner x 5.5mm outer plugs WILL BE PROVIDED (screw taps on the end - example: http://goo.gl/mfYXfl) WILL BE PROVIDED
- 10 x Mini-B USB cable at a length of your choice.
- POWERED USB hub - 10 ports, recommended so that each port can supply 5v at 1A each ... (get a 40-50w powered usb hub) DO NOT BUY USB 3.0 - not compatible with raspberry pi and other devices - get a powered USB 1.0/2.0 HUB.
- and then a raspberry pi, and/or a linux box of your choice running 3.x kernel. (Windows supported too) .... We have found the wiibox controller others provide to be unreliable and in some cases not detecting miners.
- Setup guides will be provided soon.
