I am looking for 15 (fifteen) Radeon HD7970 Cards.

I am willing to pay ~1500+ BTC for the lot, including shipping to Calgary, Canada.

Please PM me or post here with offers.

I would prefer Brand New Items and do not care about Brand.

thanks,
bitlane.


**EDIT**
I should have been a bit more specific in my request, as I would prefer REFERENCE Design, or a Non-PowerColor Dual fan.
(complaints about the Powercolor VRM Cooling on their $460 CAD Dual Fan Design on NewEgg Canada)

**EDIT 2**
Unfortunately there are too many complaints about the Sapphire Dual Fan Cards suffering from Coil noise, so those are OUT as well....


Currently the Visiontek Reference Cards at both NewEgg USA & NewEgg Canada seem to be the most plausible, as there is no limit for purchase.

It's definitely worth a shot if everything works out Wink

Which cards were you considering ?

Reference designs are around the same price. The only reason I linked to that one is because they didn't limit me to 5, and free shipping to me.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161399 (limit 5) $7.87 Shipping
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127645 (limit 10)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814103201 (limit 10) $7.87 Shipping
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814129204
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131452 (limit 10)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150585 (limit 10) $7.87 Shipping

I can order any combination of these.

The Visiontek cards would be fine, as I was considering them anyways (and no limit and free shipping to you...and 'slim' packaging for re-ship).

What would you expect in BTC for everything 'said-and-done' to T2X 3B7, Calgary, AB, Canada ?

Cheers,
bitlane.

I just updated the OP.

To be fair, I don't expect someone to do this for $20/card in BTC profit....LOL
(I lowballed without 'doing the math'....hehe)

So, it's now ~1500+ BTC for 15x 7970's.

I would like this 15 Card Deal to be an 'Opportunity' worth someone's time......(and REPEAT Transaction if possible/interested, as I need 20+ cards in the end).

I may be able to get them drop shipped from a local distributor for you if the above deal doesn't work. I will know more tomorrow, it's too late here to contact a rep.

Shipping is telling me roughly $250 for Express Mail® International ( usually higher than the actual cost, but a good ballpark max). I wouldn't have the actual price until I know how many boxes and the exact weight. And then newegg's total of $7,199.85, so you're looking at $7449.85+ whatever fee you'd would deem appropriate. (such as including the Game coupons in my fee?) I also wasn't expecting $20/card  Wink

Also, looks like TigerDirect.CA has them in stock, I might be able to order them through there, and ship directly to you.

I would be willing to let whomever the 'intermediary' turns out to be to 'CheeryPick' the contents of each box for all 'Freebies'.....
(or even ship them all game codes etc on my dime....once received, as I am not a 'gamer')...
The Freebies would be a 'thanks' and have nothing to do with a 'Fee'. I expect to pay for service.

As long as I end up with Cards/Cables/Adapters.....that's all I care about.

Looks like both newegg.ca, and Tigerdirect.ca won't let me use my normal payment method for some reason, so I'm limited to newegg.com.

If you want to, you can find me on the Freenode irc server on #bitcoin-otc, skype, email, or whatever.

If this deal ends up being something that we can accomplish without too much hassle on your end, would you be willing to use an Escrow service due to the amount involved ?

I just sent 1650 BTC to Jeremy @ Spendbitcoins.com
This will allow me to use NewEgg.ca and Paypal, so I can just get everything shipped directly to me.

If anything happens, I will let you guys know, but for now, it seems to be moving along.

Thanks to all who replied and made offers.

I ended up lucking out and finding a 'back channel' into NCIX.com and was able to purchase at volume discount with direct (free) shipping to me directly.

Also, thanks to Jeremy @ Spendbitcoins.com for making this possible.

Cheers,
bitlane.
