Then I HIGHLY recommend Kijiji, grabbing an S3.

Not too expensive, very reliable.

S5 is the best choice.  I still like kijiji and the S3 you should pay $200 UTTER MAX might be able to grab it for $100 lol.

That S4 you linked would work great as well, it draws a lot of power though.

Those are the results I got , not sure if I modified everything as should be :/

How good are they ?

I never got into mining and I never got interessted on it but this time I was watching this Bitcoin Documentary called "The Bitcoin Phenomenon" and I heard Gavin saying that he used to mine before using his old Laptop and it worked (I'd assume it's not working anymore)

I see a lot of stuff called ANTMINER S2 S3 S4 S5 and stuff , I will also assume that those are used for Mining , correct me if I'am wrong ? I want to know how much do they cost and how much time is needed to earn x BTC and to get back what I invested on them .

I know there is different Hardwares or whatever their names is , so feel fre eto give the different pricing etc ...
Note that Pricing here is about :  0.05$ / kw AFAIK .

You only pay 5 cents a KW/hr...

HOly shit you should be mining, Kijiji is your friend, Grab an S3,S4 or S5.  S5 being the best choice or buy off of Bitmaintech.com, I have bought from them 3 times, everytime I got my stuff within a week, matching their stats posted perfectly.

Yeah I would buy i guess but that the issue for now , I can't since I'am afraid those things don't arrive to my home if buy them . and I can't really afford huge amounts of money to be honest even if they are full profit and I don't have bills to pay or to buy food etc because I live with my parents and im just a teenager
Only things that arrive are Credit cards from companies like Payoneer , Neteller etc .. or small stuff like Necklace or Watch or something
but I may ask my brother to buy me one because he is going to UK soon .
