I love a good scrap. When do the first SP30s ship ?

End of July, but you would have to give me $10K for that one :p

Careful for that amount he might want to barter his Neptune 

[s1gs3gv]

No Neptune here nosey bubba.

[Collider]

No, the first ones are the bundle sp10March+sp30July ones.

Then in August the 3*sp30 bundle aswell as sp10+sp30August and afterwards the groupbuy ones for August.

Right. So what were the respective prices on all these bundles ?

The SP10March+SP30July ~ USD 13K

3*SP30 @ ~ USD 21K

August SP30 GroupBuy ~ USD 5K or USD 4.5K with 'Consolation coupon'

August SP30 / no group buy ~ USD 7K

September SP30  ~ USD 5K

[Collider]

The first bundle (sp30 July) was $14950 and afaik there was no 10% rebate option. It comes with free shipping.

The 3*sp30 bundle was $18950 after rebate, and includes 2 months hosting for each unit.

The single August sp30 (non-groupbuy) was ~$10k before rebate.

The groupbuy sp30 was $4500 after 10% rebate and includes either shipping or 1 month hosting.

2nd batch August units were $5395 before 10% rebate (if that was offered) and without shipping (shipping cost is 300$).


All the other prices for available hardware should be on the homepage.

[s1gs3gv]

The prices I have listed for the bundles are from page 1 of this thread. What rebates are you referring to ?

Anyway, so lets now note the expected ship time of each bundle/product/batch.

How does this look ?

The SP10March+SP30July / USD 13K  (14950?) / July (page 1 changed to May/August ?)

3*SP30 @ / USD 21K (rebate?) / July

August SP30 GroupBuy / USD 5K or USD 4.5K with 'Consolation coupon' / August

August SP30 / no group buy ~ USD 10K (rebate ?) / August

September SP30  ~ USD 5K / September

[Collider]

Spondoolies offered ( and maybe still does ) a 10% rebate for people with other miners on order.

AFAIK it was not offered on the very first days of the very first bundle (March / July), which was ~$15K.


The numbers (which are basically the same than I posted) look fine.

[s1gs3gv]

RoadStress, how do those shipping dates above look ?

[s1gs3gv]

AFAIK it was not offered on the very first days of the very first bundle (March / July), which was ~$15K.

Sounds like you are in line for one of the very first SP30 machines Collider.

Same as me!

As for the shipping dates I'm not making any speculation now.

[s1gs3gv]

You seem to have a pretty good idea of when they'll have chips in hand.
Backing off on ship dates so close to chips in hand ?

Sure, I will have a first day sp30. (as i also had a first day sp10)
As for shipping dates, I estimate July batch at the end of July, and August presumably early/mid August and late August.

[frisco]

First batch was March+July then there was an April+July (I think both at 15K, at least April+July)
I am not sure if there were farmer choice left when the 10% discount started if so it was only for the latest unit of the batch.

July batch has been told to be a small batch probably around 50-100 and with the info provided by SP it will ship the last week of July.
August batch should come after that problably shipping by the 2nd week of August and due to the numbers I presume that it will be continously shipping until the last week of august depending on your position on the queue (april+august, may+august, farmer's choice, singles and group buy all mixed).

@s1gs3gv I'm not backing up. What Collider said!

[opentoe]

this SP30 is a joke !At this price it would be good if it's delivered right now,but when this sp30 comes out in SEPTEMBER it will be useless at this price !

Yea, I want to support Spondoolie and the community and keep myself in the game, but at that current price with a $300 shipping charge the most I could ever make would maybe be $2500-$3200. So, for something that cost me $5395 and only get the most $3200 out of it doesn't seem like a good investment. And I'm working with the current numbers, the September numbers would even be worse. I'm trying to keep myself in the game, and I'd really hate to buy a few Antminer S3's, but their so damn cheap it is hard to say no. I'd rather use a Spondoolie product for good support and a quality product but maybe this go around I'll just stick to buying bitcoin out right from now on and not have to worry about hardware. Apparently it seems everyone in the world is putting up their own data center these days. In my opinion, the main problem and concern we ALL should be worried about is power.

Or...

I'm ok with paying extra in order to avoid unnecessarily headaches. One box, 2 cables and I'm hashing in 2 minutes plus no reselling hassle. I would like to be busy planning the future, not dealing with present avoidable issues.

Plus the added power consumption. My house is filled with Jupiters and SP10s. I don't have any room available for another miner and it makes no sense to unplug some. So the only option is colocation. Good luck hosting 7TH/s worth of S3s in a datacenter

I understand you bringing up the worse case scenario.
But most are not in it...

Fact is the prices are too high and need to come down to realistic pricing.

Wait a minute. Are you comparing a bundle that started hashing 3 months ago with something in stock? That can't be fair.

I understand you bringing up the worse case scenario.

Why it's a worst case scenario? I really think that most miners already own mining equipment and have a limited power circuit available. Optimizing it sound the best approach.
