Looks like Black Friday may come early this year for us.. Let the "Price War" begin!
As long as it's the least expensive and quietest I will buy it. My luck that won't be the
trait of just one miner.
I was just discussing that with another user in PM. I think the problem is that Avalon doesn't really go into "Price wars" they seem to instead sell at a certain price and hold it, to recoup their costs.
Its possible that Bitmain will release a S7 lite at a price to undermine the value of the Avalon6, however i am not sure Avalon will try to keep up, since Bitmain would undoubtedly win either way.
I don't think Avalon will compete in a price war just from past unless they changed sales tactics. Which is possible since it seems they are rumored to made a lot for Mr. Lees 3ph cloud he talked about, and I would imagine there are some other data centers.
The one some are saying are the US distributers -
http://www.blockc.co/ mention a huge 10 MW center. So there is a good chance they pump these out.
I do think bitmain will beat their price. They in past have adjusted to be cheaper then competition, but a lot is unknown like if the new S7 is true.
