ANTMINER S5: 1155GH(+OverClock Potential), In Stock $0.319/GH & 0.51W/GH

I still find it hard to believe they would sell at a loss. Not a good way to stay in business.

I still find it hard to believe they would sell at a loss. Not a good way to stay in business.

Hard to believe yes... but SP was wanting to jump into next gen.  I don't think they wanted to do like Avalon on 4.1 and slowly sell out.  They were ready to get out of home consumer market.

[dogie]

The difference was Spondoolies were selling at a horrific loss, which isn't good for anyone.

... except for your current benefactor, which killed Spondoolies off by undercutting them on price, and then started price-raping customers when they became the only game left in town, amirite ?

So you're saying its Bitmain's fault that Spondoolies got it wrong with the SP20 and chose to sell them off at a significant loss in order to generate cash?

Yes. I believe Bitmain's price manipulation was a contributing factor that resulted in SPTech selling their SP20's at a loss.

... I was in part the one deciding prices for the S5, it tracked the SP20 and didn't lead it. Every price decrease was initiated by Spondoolies as they wanted to sell out fast rather than for a sensible price. They also appeared to have 100s and 100s and 100s in stock at one time which isn't compatible with their no self mining model.

Well, they are quick to up their price, but the Dragon Boat Festival announcement is still there.  Good to know they are on top of things!


___________
We'll have Dragon Boat Festival from June 20~22, the last shipping date before holiday will be June 19 and resume on June 23rd after we come back.

I can understand the full S5 going up but not a part .


I am told this about on June 13 th then today



Hello sir,

price is 165$ per hash pcb.
and if you are returning damaged hash pcb then it is 150$.

best regards,
Bitmain_Z


I'm told this

(12:22:13 AM) Bitmain_D: Price for S5 hash is $189 + $15 shipping
(12:22:57 AM) Bitmain: i was told 150$ thatg including shipping with the old board


Then we talk some

I am told this price 165$ per hash pcb with the Damaged board + shipping, I  might Have bought it for 165 then they slip in the 15 dollars shipping it is in the US will be coming from them in the US to me in the US. I'M also told it was 25 off but when i was gonna buy it back in June 13 it was 15 off sigh shipping included in the 150 price with the damaged board.  

  I hate to say this what happening with them , is greed really getting that bad with them . I mean I can see buying a new one at the price now but jacking up the price for parts is a bit much imo . sigh .

Now I am really worried about how much the s7 is going to cost.  how many bad ones will be sold in batch one ,will they be used all my S5 i bought direct, not one was used.

they are probably running out and not producing anymore..
so they have to take boards off of working s5s.. this would make them worth more as they potentially lose a sale.

should i care sorry not a being ass here I don't like how the whole thing went down sense they sent me a email not 3 days ago asking to buy one i said I would this week, there was no mention of a price increase
for parts. I am willing to pay the 165 for one broad drop the shipping, i think that's fair enough .. they wouldn't .



and when they finally sell out all the S5 that are left for S7 the  price will drop a lot and I'm also willing to bet any parts left they will sell locally and get ride of it all and still make a profit .

I can go on and on whats just wrong with what they just did but it won't do any good i may just sell off that broke S5 as parts and make like 250 off the parts i d rather have it working .

AGAIN as i said

I don't mine paying what the price is now for a new S5 but are they new after reading lot of complaints here . i have yet to see one merchant or manufacture raise the price for parts in all my 30 years of retail i have heard of it happening just never had it happen to me and when I had my business i never one raised parts price i did the finished product but never parts.

any way I'm done, i may call them try to get that 15 shipping kicked off . to BITMAIN I don't mind paying the 165 , 15 increase is fair but then as i was about to agree with it you slip in the 15 shipping when the parts back n the june was shipping included we came to that then .

i only have 1 s5 and to be honest the quality from the s3 to the s5 went down considerably.
the one i have overheated and i think it caused some damage.. i keep seeing this.






what its showing is one hashing board is going offline for a few minutes.. the ticks on the graph are hours, so its about 20-30 min

enough to cool off that board..

its not always the same board tho.. and sometimes its offline for hours.


here is the weekly graph showing all the times the board went offline.

For now, we will close this ticket. Price wise, please check back with us in a few weeks. It could be cheaper by then

BITMAIN you know how i feel drop the shipping i will pay the 165, in a few weeks i may have some thing better not need it and then any price won't be worth it .

not long i got the above one to day i think three or four  days ago i got one asking was I going to buy it, if not they were closing the ticket . i said yea this week that was I think Saturday, I said yes this week , so i went to the ticket expected it to be at 150 still they jacked it to 189 + shipping then lowed it to 165 + shipping . i was about to agree to 165 $ then they slip in the 15 dollar shipping . the shipping killed it for me . so i said pass or drop the shipping I will send off the BTC now, and  have the old board out to them at my shipping cost, i do not expect them to pay the shipping to them but i have to, to have it shipped to me ...,  insult to injury at that point . I get free shipping on all most everything i order on the webb to and from me . i guess it was the shipping that killed it for me . I know for a fact that most company's that charge a  high shipping price is to make up for the drop in price for a so called sell price. Don't get going about all the low things they do to make a buck. I/m gonna give them call a Monday to see if i can get the shipping dropped, if not i wont buy it and will ebay the none working S5 as parts, it does work but off and on, one board is dead the other one seems to work when it wants to. no this is not the one i said i fixed in another post that one is working right now as i type this.

[toptek]

I see why now no more S5 for sell the buy button is grayed out i know I'm gonna wait now , screw trying to get the shipping dropped, just wait .

here is the weekly graph showing all the times the board went offline.

What pool are you on? I was on infernopool  (profit switch pool) and had the same problem. When i mine on f2pool or antpool, i get steady hashrate. other profit switch pools make the hashrate fluctuate every time a block is found and there is a delay in the miners getting new work.

According to Dogie no S6 there jumping right to a S7 .I trust him only so far but i only trust anyone so far but hes ok in my book for that kind of info.
