Interesting news on the group buy and GREAT news on the improved shipping costs... @Spondoolies-Tech -- are you simply trying to shift risk to Roadstress? Why buy direct at $11,995 when I can (potentially) at $4995 from the group buy?Sadly they were not as aggressive on a bulk SP10 proposal We're not trying to shift any risk. We're fully supporting RoadStress buy group effort. OK, and kudos for the distributing the hash rate mantra, but to the latter question... Will you answer that one for me please? We like group buys, they help to distribute the hash-rate. We do offer modest bulk sales discounts, as you well know.

Why do you need to question a manufacturers intent to reward this community? may i retort - why did the chicken cross the road? to escape the swedish chef. it's kind of the same

New Shipping rates for the SP10s! We are happy to announce that following the completion of the April batch, having shipped out many units and with plans to start shipping the May batch, we were able to secure a new and improved shipping rate. The new shipping price is $193 for any country in the world that we ship to. In addition for those who order 6 SP10 May bundles or more, shipping will be free!Would it be possible to have a group buy for the May batch? I'm talking about something similar to the speacial easter/pesach for SP30 offer above. Come up with a proposal, send to sales@spondoolies-tech.comWe're not committing though. I'll come up with something over the weekend and send it to you. Hopefully we can work something out!

You could set this up on your website, make the price $4995 and limit the purchase per buyer to perhaps max 5. Also, I still think your SP10 for May Delivery is over priced since you have not sold out of them yet, let's take worst case scenario that you ship them May 31st, this meas that there will be 3-4 difficulty increases, if we say average 15% increase I come up with the price of around $4500 for your SP10 Bundle so I think you should reduce the price of the SP10 Bundles to around 4K and you will see how fast they sell, just a suggestion.

We're working to automate group buy sales via another web site. It will take time. RoadStress's Easter Group buy is a unique opportunity for now. We won't repeat it anytime soon, unless a very good reasonable proposal will come.
We're giving 10% discount with proof of order from other ASIC vendors. May batch starts 4th and will continue non stop. 20-40 miners / day.

Ok i see that you really want to argue about stupid things. I will answer you to this. There is no reason to buy directly at $11,995 right now unless you aren't aware of this Forums or the Group Buy, but the Group Buy offer is available for only one week. The Easter Week. After that we are back to old prices. Simple as that. Miss this offer, then go ahead and buy at a higher price. The whole capitalist market works this way (buy 1 or 2 or a few units at a higher price or buy bulk units at a lower price), but it seems that this is something new for you.

The guy above is giving you decent advice. Your 1.4th unit is the best piece of gear and you can ship it pretty quickly. Antminer s-1 gear has been the most successful selling Asic Mining gear for a few reasons good price good working gear. Lastly low margins. If you were to blow the 1.4th Sp10's out at the lowest profit margin you could .. I have no Idea what the number is but lets say selling them at 3.5k usd plus shipping still makes a profit you should do that. There is a number that makes profit for you. 3500 plus shipping or 3700 plus shipping . Right now the window for a 1.4th unit is all yours. price aggressive and sell it fast. make a name for yourself. Your entire pre order idea for the sp30's does not make good sense . Shame as your gear does appear to be the most power efficient and highest quality item on the market.

the sp30's at 4500 usd with group buy and a discount for august hash are not attractive
you really should focus on the sp10's
but hey your company not mine.

I am looking at it from a business point of view, supply and demand, the fact that they did not sell out of SP10 machines should tell you something, I feel the prices for SP10's 2 Unit Bundle is still high, that's all, it's all business, how could they do this Group buy from 12K to 5K on August SP30 machines, perhaps they know that the Group Buy will not be successful since more than 250 machine has to be sold.
