Import pricing and shipping

As for the pi, you should do research on the product before buying.

Without research you may not have the circuit breaker to handle the units

YEAH i would like to do a group buy but it will not be easy to do.

If I get the gear on sept 5th due me.

I may put in an order for 60 units.

I am opening a group buy thread now.

someone else opened one

I would run a group buy I have done them last feb 2016

but they were out of san fran- usa not hong kong -china

60 for 43000 + 2000 + 1500 = 46500

this is 775.

I am in NJ ,USA

reship would be 25 to 50 in usa

maybe 125 to europe

so
800-825 in the USA
900 in europe

I can build rasp pi's for 65

so do the math

825 usa no rasp pi
900 europe no rasp pi

890 with a rasp pi usa

965 with a rasp pi europe

those are break even numbers >

I am not a greedy pig and would not mark up like ebay

but I would want to earn some money as it is a lot of work.

we also run into btc price up price down issues.

I certainly won't be doing it until Sept 12th or later. I may write a thread in group buy section on tues the 5th once my aug 6 unit comes in.

If YOU run a group buy I'm in Wink

need at least 10 (don't have that much money to buy 60) but I wanna get 10 for sure.
I've already 4 and ordered one more from last batch (aug31) which is probably coming soon...hope ill get btc address soon from canaan
Anyways need 10, no need controller, shipping US... I try to be updated from your new thread if u do, and ill post over there as well

Thanks

It'll be interesting to see how the next 12 hours play out

I definitely agree with you there lol. You thinking the price will go back up over 5,000? I'm betting that it will shoot back up to 4700 by the end of tomorrow for sure.

Mine is in reference to Canaan just opened so orders will hopefully be going through to the payment phase.

I'll look into it. I'm not that new to mining, just when it comes to the Avalons. I currently have 1 S9 hooked up with 2 more on the way. I also have 13 D3's coming in as well. I'm trying to diversify. I tried getting a couple of L3+ out of the last batch but the site was way more overwhelmed and I was able to get 2 in my cart, but they sold out before I could checkout. I have a shop setup to house them and have the wiring and everything setup. I upgraded my transformer to cover up to 50 miners. I plan on trying to get a small farm going. Gotta start somewhere.

I started a group buy topic
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2147123.new#new

As I stated in it, I'm fairly new to the forums so I don't have to be the one to organize it completely, id actually rather someone more well known to help lol

I'm in if you want to get one started. What is the extra 2000+1500 for? Just curious. Also, I'm a noob to this stuff, but what is the rasp pi used for? I think I would be in for 4. Possibly 5.

I could see the group buy being worth while if 2-5 people came together to make the purchase quickly. Otherwise, like philipma said, with fluctuating btc prices it and not a huge price break, it would be a crapshoot.

I requested BTC address to pay few days ago, but still no response Sad

How long did you wait?

It's going to take a while. They got more orders than they were expecting. The last few pages have order numbers of a few people that have not received the payment info yet either. What is yours? Mine is #89619 and I have not received the payment information yet.

Can only be patient and wait... or pay 4-5x what we should on ebay/amazon.

My order is #89693, no word yet on payment info either.
Waiting patiently....

Order #89374 I'll post when I get mine. Provided I'm not asleep during the time

realized my rant got off topic from op intent , I took my rant elsewhere lol

Actually I pretty much agree with you. but the asics builders want to move gear out as they fear btc price drops.

So they offer to a guy that wants 50-60 pieces.

and that guy may use 40 to mine with and sell 20 at jacked prices on ebay.

This always happens when coins have a price runup.

It is annoying as I just buy gear slow but sure with zero regard to coin price.

I was buying 721's when coin price was at 875 in dec
I was buying 721's when coin price was at 919 in jan
I was buying 741's when coin price was at 2500 in jul
I was buying 741's when coin price was at 3400 in aug 6
I ordered a 741 on the 31st when coin price topped out at 4950

and I will order one in sept even with coin prices dropped to 4650

but deal is 775 each for 60 pack.

43000 + 2000 + 1500 = 46500

as usa will charge at least 1500 in custom fees
and shipping to usa is at least 2000

I would offer to organize a group buy but I am still waiting on my own august 6th and august 31st buys.

I would join you on a group buy if you would lead it. If you do plan one put me in for 2, Thanks.

I'd probably be up for a group buy in the future, but I'll let these first three come in and learn on them a bit first before I invest any more.

So an update to my "Customs Hold", where it was being held in Alaska by CPE. I just had to send in a CF5106 form, where I just had to put a social/ein and my address, took about 2 days and finally they released it. Didn't ask for any money (yet), but they did have an invoice from Canaan for the $4900 it cost me.....so now it gets here on Tuesday!!! Huge sigh of relief!!!!

It is good gear that works with very little maintenance .

My August 6 order is still due on sept 5.

And I got a follow up on my August 31 order.

I hope I get the gear on time.
