crazy online prices - on eBay for Bitmain S9's

[MoparMiningLLC]

I wonder who would buy at these prices? do these guys actually get sales?

this one is the cheapest of the crazy prices that I saw today 1499
https://www.ebay.com/itm/IN-HAND-NEW-Bitmain-Antminer-S9-13-5TH-With-Antminer-Power-Supply-APW3/143199429940?epid=10023346379&hash=item215759e534:g:x0sAAOSwjQhcpFJv

this one stepped it up to 4995
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-Bitmain-Antminer-S9-13-5TH-s-with-Power-Supply-In-Hand-Ready-to-Ship/282822814500?

this one goes a bit further and wants 7000 with $100 to ship
https://www.ebay.com/itm/Bitmain-Antminer-S9-13-5TH-s-with-APW3-PSU-IN-HAND-READY-TO-SHIP-NOW/123141314646?_

and then this one was the most crazy price I saw today... 12,000
he added the following tidbit of information:

"1 Day Old.  Opened and Mining flawlessly at 13.7TH. Price is firm, These units are hard to get and profitable.  Will ship immediately upon receipt of payment."

while they can be profitable, that really depends on the users electricity cost - but it is not worth anywhere near 12k

If they find people willing to pay these prices, I sold all my S9's to the wrong folks then as I got 300 tops for the ones I sold and those were the S9J's

im sure they are hoping for some newbb to think its a s17 or t17 ect and just buy it not knowing,

really sad to prey on people this way.

at least thats my opinion , even new s9 with the better chips on bitmain for 438ish

exactly! he kept saying I did not understand the two other reasons (other than financial) for mining bitcoin. I know there are other reasons, but even if you are not mining for the profit, it still makes sense to mine in the way that will still save you the most money as well.

I know, look at this one.

They are just targeting newbies who aren't too familiar with mining rigs & their prices. They are probably waiting for that 1 sale desperately haha

regardless - still insane prices.
I wonder how many gullible people buy these? and could I sleep at night by selling my 17's for similar?

those are realistic though and reasonable.

I imagine if any of those sold for those inflated prices, they’d be returned shortly thereafter causing headaches for everyone involved.

simply put, eBay allows a seller to list items as "not returnable" - then the only issue that can cause a return and subsequent refund is if the item does not work as specified. So, all they need to do is supply a miner that functions as it should - then the price does not matter as the buyer cannot return it simply because they do not like the price.

out of the 9 i bought on ebay the most expensive one was 224 shipped, and it was a 14th model

most of the s9 boards were between 600-631 factory set frequency
some of them had 632-665 ish frequency settings and hash a bit better and at lower temps   doing 15-16 @ 84c   vs the lower freq doing 13-14 @ 88c

i have only gotten one miner with a bad board, could have been dropped or something but the other 2 boards are going strong and i just got a board for 70 free shipping off ebay
i could use the shipping ins but kids got to the package materials before i could take lots of picts so doubtful ups will refund, they did offer to pickup the damaged miner and attempt
to fix or determine the damage , ill prob just take the loss and move on

again these are reasonable deals - the purpose of this thread was pointing out the unreasonable ones.
