where can i buy a Bitcoin miner

[Videodrome]

i saw al lot of miners on ebay, also on Amazon there are some.

If you want to buy more then one then the best option is directly from the chinese farm.

ebay miners are very overpriced, you get the occasionally cheap one, but in general they are not worth it

i would suggest in the market section, for a better deal, or from the producer directly

My opinion is to bid on eBay.  Do not use a buy it now for it will be overpriced, but bid instead.  This way you will be able to get a better price, for the auctions have the tendency of running lower than anyone is willing to sell them for.  Some will vote against this, but I have tried it and it worked out pretty well.  I am only mining small, but hey, mining is mining.

[CoinSkipper]

You can bid for cheap on eBay, and there are multiple sniping sites that you can use to snipe, as not to start a bidding war.

Or you can buy of amazon. But I've heard of scams through there.

I ( my husband) have bought a miner on Amazon. It seems to work well.

My friend supposedly bought an antminer s5 for $800 on amazon. Amazon is by far the best, with a whole range of used, factory new and second hand miners. Id recommend cutting from there.

It has amazing buyer protection, but you'll pay a hefty markup for that protection.

I sell on Amazon myself and they basically force you to cover any expenses Amazon incurs including charge backs, and of course if the unit gets damaged during shipment the customer is not obligated to return the item... Yeah that's not a joke.  Read the terms of service.

It is good to buy at Amazon or Ebay, but it is not good for seller. Sellers can always charge more to compensate for the hash terms and conditions.

Buying it on eBay isn't a bad idea as you can use your credit card and can chargeback if needed.

But never, ever buy from Butterfly Labs.

 Again don't cost much ($25 bucks each and $6 shipping ..er up to 3 of them at the $6 bucks shipping FYI)

they are 8gh usb sticks by Sidehack a project here on bitcoin forum. See link below the only catch is the ROI is a smile (ie toy mode you won't make back your investment in btc..then again so cheap it don't matter...)

anyway only 'safe' toy that won't ROI that I know about. All the other high end stuff likely won't ROI either esp with electric..so I'd get this to feed a 'home miner' addiction myself

This is a great solution! I think this is the best Christmas present fo Bitcoin motivated kids.

And it looks very nice too (IMO at least).

Hashnest/antminer sells miners, they are probably the largest providers and the most trusted

[kyrios_]

you can try buying from aliexpress, it's a subsidiary of Alibaba focused on consumer sales. they have all sorts of miners from China manufacturers but those I see there are usually the older one. found some pretty decent usb miners like antminer U3 at about 30$ and Avalon (I think they're imitations or smth) stick miners. quite good buyer support, I think the site heavily penalises sellers for bad reviews so they the sellers will care a lot about bad reviews. anyway they have free shipping to my country at least. don't expect to roi though ( for usb miners ) I bought it as a hobby and to try mining for fun best of luck

[jinguer]

I think it is too expensive.

Living in Canada so I bought an antminer S3 from  http://bitcoinware.net/  the price was lower when I bought it 6 months ago and I had also sent him a private message and he lowered the price for me. Never had a problem with the antminer. 3 weeks ago I bought an antminer s1 and he took 10% off the price.  Running great also! Also bought a antminer u3 for 40 US$ on eBay.  All 3 items where free shipping.  They all run great with very low HW error rate.
Oh and this is my first post so hello to everyone!

Newegg use to sell these huge miners that were in a black box the size of a mini fridge. They were running for $900. I was actually thinking of buying 10 of them and stacking them in my basement. But then reality set in and it didn't make economical sense at that time since the electricity costs alone would kill me.

Any idea of what brand this miner was or what kind of hash rate it gave?

[tnrmedia]

i have 2 Antminer S1 180-200 ghs for sell
cost 70€ for one
pm me

Can you ship to India?  If yes, please PM me with Postage information.

I check their site and they as 170 USD for a antminer S3.. Dafuq?

I think it is better then to buy at bitmain or spondoolies directly. Go for a S7 or so, or try to buy a S3 for 100 usd max, on ebay.

Ebay is a good place to buy miners, but i would indulge you to consider the BCT market place:

On Ebay too many people are too much for their miners. Then, in the market place you will find more reasonable prices. And if they are not reasonable you will hear from experts (the members).

A couple months ago /Yj2MhG]bitcoins were only $115. Now they are nearly $900. I see this as a huge investment opportunity.

With my Radeon 7850 OC, I'm currently mining at a steady 300mhashes/s. But that wouldn't be very profitable since the electricity cost. I see ASIC miners on Amazon which I know are great for mining bitcoins. For $480, you can get a 40ghashes/s ASIC miner. If you got two, that would be 80ghases/s and earn 0.0183 BTC per day going 24/7. This would also cost about $2.70 per day if it used 750w of power. In one year, you would make a total of $4,623 minus the $986 cost of electricity, minus the $1,250 cost of build, leaves you with $2,390 profit in one year.

My question is, is /5kazuj]bitcoin mining stable? Will I buy the parts and then bitcoins crash or something? Is it really worth mining?

480$ for 40ghs? Something is not right...
