Topic: 200-250 BTC for borrowing your Avalon - page 2. (Read 2196 times)

Bump.

Yochdog is currently giving me the best offer (you do have the Avalon in hands right now, it is not a preorder right?)

I will go for 249

Nah, it's fine here. 

I will probably do an auction for this offer. Someone agreed for 250 BTC. So I will do it for him at this amount, unless someone is willing to loan it for 249 BTC or less (1 BTC increments work well I guess)

Hum, I am getting quite a few offers, I may reduce the deal from 250 to 200 BTC. Still a reasonable offer IMHO.

Oh, I do have the 250 BTC (and a lot more than that).

John: wasn't sure which subforum best fit my thread. Move it if you want.

Do you currently have the 250 BTCs right now or are you still working on it?

Nice

Should this be moved to lending? 

Have an Avalon (in your hands, not a preorder)? Are you in the USA? Want to lend it to me? I will pay 200-250 BTC to physically borrow your Avalon for 90 days. What I will do:
- I will open it up and probe PCBs and components with an oscilloscope and multimeter
- I will measure dimensions and weight of all internal components
- 90 days later, I return you the Avalon, and you keep the 200-250 BTC

This is all for a project that I will reveal more information about later.

Why you can trust me:
- my identity is public: see my website http://zorinaq.com
- I am an old trusted member, I joined the forums in December 2010
- I sold tens of thousand of dollars of mining hardware with great reviews: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=122187.5
- I have great ratings on bitcoin-otc (user mrb_): http://bitcoin-otc.com/viewratingdetail.php?nick=mrb_&sign=ANY&type=RECV
- I will personally do the work on your Avalon in my electronics lab, no third-party risks
- I have collateral to re-imburse you or give you equivalent hardware, in case my probing renders your Avalon non-functional, namely I have 2 Avalon second batch preorders, 2 Avalon tradeins, 4 BFL Single 60 Gh/s units ordered and paid on June 24, 2012 (in theory I should receive all of this mining hardware in the next 90 days). I can work up an arrangement to plan for what happens exactly in this case.

I am in the Los Angeles area and would much prefer travelling to meet you in person and take delivery of it, as opposed to shipping the Avalon. I do not think I want to take the risk of international shipping + customs, so my offer is only for those with Avalon units the USA.
