Is anyone setting up a group buy of S2 miners

[c2m]

Great news! Well what about share buy of one of XBTec 0.5PH+ oil cooled miner ?  just kidding

Well if Bitmain wont be interested, Jacks LAs new 1TH miners (should survive transport) might be a possibility, if he would be willing to sell at reasonable price. Or once Dogie review XBTec new Pacific miner, that might be a good buy - but probably we wont be able to secure delivery from their 1st batch.

Anyway, looking forward to this deal.
Thanks and GL all.

I'd be in for one.

Any idea how Bitmain is going to approach the low-cost upgrade of the S2 in the future?

[bitwitt]

I'm interested in 1 or 2 depending on price.

[r1senfa17h]

I'm interested in 5

great, thanks Waldohoover for taking the lead on this. I think price around 1300-1400 for June delivery of at least 100+ would be small victory

Sorry for a bit off topic:
What about doing group buy, but using shares (backed by physical miners = shares entitles you to part of miner/s) here ? We can get more fellow miners (actually selling smaller part of whole miners available), thus buying more miners and get better price at the end. What do you guys think ?

I mean Waldohoover is respected member here and have experience with group and "shares" buy offers and responsibly running&supporting them - what do you think about this Waldohoover ? Would you have time for this ?

Even better would be to take small portions of profit per month and reinvest on monthly (or 2month) basis in best $/gh/w miner/s ready to be shipped at that time, thus increasing the total hashrate and in case of no longer profitable miners sell them and divide the profit (aka liquidate the shares). I mean - happy hashing of community managed by trusted members of community I guess it will be possible to broker a good deal with some of respected hosters around here (at those numbers of miners we are talking about, there would be mutual benefit for both sides - us (shareholders, profit from low hosting/power prices) and hosters (long term profit)).
Thanks for reading and happy mining to all

Not a problem, I haven't made a formal announcement but looks like I penned a deal on new office/warehouse space to reduce fees of my future and current fees.

With that being said, I am definitely open to a GB to break down shares per miner if people want to just get their feet wet. Again, expected fees and charges will be cut by a substantial amount compared to my previous/current fees.

I've shot a couple emails to Bitmain regarding the situation and offer but haven't heard back. I've referenced the thread to show some initial interest so hopefully I can hear back soon.

Additionally, I'd love to also start offering local pickup at the new office, since the majority of miners will be in an undisclosed location. Sometimes seeing a face when doing deals like this is the reassurance people need to do future purchases, so I'm def open to everything and anything that makes sense.

Thanks Waldohoover. Can't wait.

Just so you know, there is a scammer who has set up an account looking like yours:  wald0hoover
and is sending out this PM:

After payment I will need the transaction I.D, your shipping address and how many units you have ordered.

We need to move quickly on this in order for Bitmain to honour the price quoted.

Thanks,

[cryptopick]

I'm in for 2-4 depending on price

[goggles1200]

I'm interested in 1-2 setups depending on the price.

[bellgarath1]

I am wanting 2 to 5 units depending on price and when they can be delivered.
Was hoping 112.org would setup another group buy.

With all this interest in this thread I'm surprised there isn't another GB.

The ppl that have posted here are at least like 50units

[Bitcoin_70]

4 Units.

[Niggle]

I'll have 1 unit at the right price.

[rhj12345]

Count me in for a total of 3 more.

Hope this goes fast!

[Todd042]

I would like in for 6 to 8 units depending on price and when they can be delivered as well. If price is in 12-1300 range could go as high as 12 of them. Thanks Waldohoover for putting the work in on this.

Agreed thanks, and with that price range I would be looking around 4 aswell.

[freeowl]

I'm interested in GB for 1 unit.

[Xian01]

I'd probably be down for at least 1.

[Und3rd0g]

Has anyone heard any news on the S2 "upgrade" program?

[gigacoiner]

I would be interested in GB for S2 also.

[infernoman]

when you guys say gb for one unit are you asking for cloud hashing? because this is for a group buy of the physical unit.

[Bitcoin_70]

4 physical Units, please.
