I've got one sitting in my basement doing nothing.
I have 5 cubes because they sent me extra, but I haven't had time to troubleshoot (my busy season starts in January).
Perhaps we can come to an agreement. $1800 seems cheap though. It should be making $300 a month, so I suppose that's 6 months which is likely a fair rate.
Just crazy to think that's the price of this $10k hardware; is what it is though.
My units are finicky, but seems like you're really interested in finding some. PM me your phone number, and I'll call you while I drive to work tomorrow (or home if that's better).
I'll be on the road from 6:45 AM until 8AM (have the drop off my kid before driving downtown). I'm in Cleveland, so we're in the same EST time zone.
I recently installed Google Hangouts, so we could try that. I haven't put Skype on my new phone yet. Let me know.
well I may be just lucky but I may be out of this search..I just got a used Titan all dies good for $567 usd (2.3btc) and I'm somewhat concerned about
that 2nd batch Titans hitting the world supposedly at the end of this month (march)
at 15ckwh or $135w kwh (i had an orig so my elec is 2x that) but the above 2nd titan unit....I will probably ROI in 2 months
BUT
again with all them 2nd batch titans hitting the market here in a couple weeks I'd be careful on price
although
wtf do I know...perhaps a big splash of scrypt miners would show intent and drive the price up (or down) anyway that is the shoe that I'm waiting to drop
and why even at my price....above it may be better just to buy as much LTC as you can
please enlighten me if I am way off mark (and or a nice LTC pop in price would help) but again no idea when these 2nd Titan's hit the world what exactly this
may mean to pow coins prices (up/down/sideways) or what ..but there will be an effect imho
again not a slam...just from my perspective 3.8k seems way way way too high (and i'm automatically excluding ebay prices on titans as just ridiculous....in this guess)
Oh I dont want to buy one for $3800...$1800 and I have a sale pending. If you dont mind me asking...how did you get a fully functional titan with all dies working for $500? How hard up was the seller? I dont think you will see many 300+ MH miners go for that price. Congrats on the score and even better over the last couple days with price rise. Thanks for the imput and I also agree that the batch 2 hittung the scene soin will have an effect, just hope not as drastic as some seem t o think.
well think about it....i got the unit due to high elec costs in Australia ..the heat (i guess it is summer there) ..the guy travels a lot i think..and also he paid for it with btc mined at a low rate..and probably worth over 900 usd when he used BTC to buy it from KNC....and mined some with the titan since he had it and with my 2.3 btc is probably close to his orig BTC investment...so if you drink the kool aid and hold and figure btc is going up....and he got his stash back ..he is prob ok with this (must be he sent me the miner).....but for all i know with his travel and heat and high elec costs..he may not have even been running the unit (it is a fire hazard...would you go for 2 weeks and run it with nobody about?)
also my price imho is closer to the 'real price' 567.00 plus 135 usd a month to me at 15c kwh ..it will take me (if diff stays the same) at approx 250 LTC a month probably with elec about
(correct me if I'm wrong) I'll be into the 3rd month mining covering that months and prev months elec plus the 567 cost....again incl elec from the 3rd month in roi....
looks good huh
wait for it ..BUT...
ok supposedly at the end of march approx 2.5K of 2nd Batch Titans hit the LTC network (i assume LTC network in that you can get full out 300mh on such on ALTS not so much unless you want to mine LTC direct to BTC.but still it is all on the LTC network for either option)..so assuming these guys jump into the pool and mine LTC like hell from the get go 1 of 2 things will happen
1) LTC will pop up big time in price because these guys will mine and HOLD either their LTC to BTC angle or LTC in the hope LTC price will pop above say 7 bucks and they could maybe in a vain hope get their ROI back on their no roi no refund knc titans..ie my boat only game in town cause they drank the kool aid and got these knc titan soon to be overpriced doorstops..ie they are stuck playing the long game on LTC etc
or
2) people will look at the diff jump.from this watershed of Titans slamming into the beach and also ....see there is no way to get a larger (or any scrypt miner) new anymore esp at 300mh and go POW coins are dead and take their action to BTC or POS coins and all POW coins like LTC and the rest will die on the vine (no scrypt data halls no home scrypt miners ..no more sales of existing scrypt miners etc) ...now I'm confused on this because GPU coins are still doing well so no idea...but still...gives me pause..THERE IS NO NEW SCRYPT EQUIP FOR DATA HALL USE OR HOME USE OR ANY USE OF ANY KIND THIS GENERATION OR NEXT PLANNED AT ALL!
so either the 2nd batch Titans will prop up POW coin mining (esp LTC) in price and adoption
or
the 2nd batch titans will jump into POW coins as the last (largest) scrypt coin miners out their (of any kind) and the Titans will do to POW scrypt coins what they did to scrypt N algo coins ...drive the price into the ground..destroying those coins profit margin....too much hash power vs difficulty increase ...price driven down from everyone mining and cashing out asap..with everyone cashing out to usd or btc from the scrypt n as an example..it all goes poof rather quickly ....a quicker magical metamorphosis of your Titan into a doorstop
will welcome anyone telling me that i have no idea wtf I'm talking about above..but yeah that keeps me up at night
so as of right now just praying for a BTC pop in price to say 400 usd and hope like hell it takes LTC along with it for the ride (i just CAN'T mine LTC TO BTC direct at 2 bucks an LTC .it just seems obscene..so just mining and holding LTC and praying to the asic gods......anyway that is my bet)
I'm on
www.litecoinpool.org with the 2 titans (my orig and the 2nd titan for 2.3btc) making 17.2 LTC a day at 650mh ...so again like all things in my life I have NO FRIGGING IDEA of wtf is going on etc...but DAMN it is like I'm completely lost on the freeway..I have no idea where I am where I am going or anything but DAMN I sure am making good time!
so it goes.....in a hole with the orig knc titan at 10,131.80 this 2nd titan helps me ....but a hole is a hole so to speak..... i need like 4 buck at least for LTC to see some light in the hole
to give me some hope of getting out of the knc titan purchase (orig unit) mistake
so myself ...i have only one direction on all this UP out of the hole as to the others of you w/o a no roi no refund knc titan...I'd be real conservative on your buy price according to your fears (you've seen mine above) but truth be told you'd probably have a better shot just BUYING LTC at this point if like a lot of us you consider the price too low rather then getting any kind of titan ...
I also have 1 other angle on this 2nd Titan due to bank error (they called SEC) it was fixed after the fact..but due to bank error I FILED as a legal miner in USA ..have paid no taxes on mining due to equip purchases the last 2 years (or i would have paid the IRS 9k) so this double of revenue as a home miner biz in 2015 and the 2nd titan purchase puts me ahead on this my 3rd year mining as a biz..with equip deprecation this 10,131.80 miner really will cost me (5yrs depr) in real $$$ toward taxes owed only 7.6k ....so again i have another reason to mine and keep my 'cute' little biz going the IRS happy (hey i'm a farmer ..got to show crops/revenue) so keep that in mind ....forced to file and be legal miner so some of that is why I'm doing the above ....again for others out there this may not make any sense for a titan esp at 135 usd elec a month (or in my case 270m) ..but again this is MY circumstances...keep it in mind.
anyway please tell me I'm wrong on my fears above...but thats what makes me scratch my head right now etc you can also add to the fact LTC difficulty is going to half in about 167 days..from 50 coin to 25 coin
http://bitstacks.org/litecoinClock.htmlso again ....I"m flipping a coin on all this ....it could very well be in 2 months buying a 2nd batch titan for 567 new in box on ebay makes as much sense .. as buying a current 3TH neptune on ebay now for $567 new in box
anyway ....like i said no idea wtf I'm doing but damn I sure am making good time!
