Correct.

Yes my offer was quite good IMHO. A little surprised it attracted only 5 bidders.


Me too!

I am VERY interested in this. Would you consider a batch #2 Avalon? You can keep it for 200BTC  Grin
I believe OP wants an Avalon immediately to examine, he doesn't want to wait.

Correct.

Can anyone tell me how much bitcoins you can mine with avalon if you run it 24x7 for 3months (90 days)

It's all extremely variable but you could play with this to get an idea:

As of now, you're looking at ~3.2BTC a day for one avalon.

3.2BTC x 90(days) = 288BTC - of course this is a very WRONG estimate, but you get the idea.

OP's offer is pretty good then.

VERY good IMO

Got another bid for 230 BTC.

(That's a lot of manual work to run an auction preserving the privacy of the bidders!)

I'm not interested in doing this (namely because I don't have an Avalon on me right now), however I just wanted to point out, it amazes me what the people who purchased the Asic's early can get. I mean if you got it as part of the first batch, you paid $1500, and now you are getting $20,000 to lend it out for 90 days... and then you can still mine with it. Good luck and free bump!

Don't forget they mined some 100 coins so far already... being on right place at right time and make a right decision  Grin

Unless someone else makes me an offer in the next 24 hours (by May 6, 21:20 UTC), I will borrow it from the person who offered me 240 BTC. Thanks all!

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 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)

I will go for 249

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.
Nah, it's fine here.  Smiley

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

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.
