Welcome to the Official Apollo Sales Thread: Pre-Order for the FutureBit Apollo is currently scheduled to start at
6PM EST (GMT-5) September 1st This Pre-Order is for my New Pod Style Scrypt ASIC Miner that is currently the most efficient scrypt miner in production! If you haven't already please read ALL info in the general info thread here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-futurebit-project-apollo-bringing-asic-mining-back-to-the-home-miner-4974036This will be a VERY LIMITED Pre-Order while I ramp up production, and for that reason all sales will be handled directly by me through my site. There will be NO bulk sales to anyone, and a limit of 4 per person. If you don't get in this pre-order there will be more in the near future.
Pre-Order Linkhttps://shop.futurebit.io/products/apollo-ltc-pod-asic-miner-for-scrypt-algorithm-cryptocurrenciesPrice: $274 + shippingPlease note as a special thank you to ALL existing Moonlander 2 customers, there will be a $25 off coupon that you will be receiving either directly from me or through your distributors. If you have not received the coupon by around 3PM EST Sept 1st please email your distributor as they all have the coupon codes (if for whatever reason you haven't heard back you can email me (order at futurebit.io) as a last resort with your Moonlander 2 invoice, and an image of your Moonlander with your name written on a peice of paper and ill shoot you the coupon...please go through your distributor first and check your emails).
ShippingShipping is currently scheduled to start in
October based on order number, and will have more info on exact date when production starts in a couple of weeks. Due to the really high quality heatsink, shipping is not cheap, the package weighs about 2 pounds. I am currently negotiating with carries to do a bulk shipment that should bring shipping costs down for everyone especially international customers. All Domestic shipments in the US is a flat $15 per miner, and international customers will tentatively be $29 and will be eating some of this shipping charge unless the charge ends up being more than $40. I know for a fact that the max for anyone would be around 50, so at most I might follow up with some of you for a $10 extra charge for shipping. All shipments will be through either Fedex or DHL.
As always all pre-order sales are FINAL. There is no refund possible since I will be using all funds to order parts and start production. I have priced this at breakeven due to the current market conditions, and the only reason I'm even selling it is because of all the time and effort I have put into producing this miner, and still want to get it out to as many people as possible (and a nice FU to Bitmain of course), at least I can claim the worlds most efficient LTC miner now
Please note that the miner has a case designed for it, but it would add another 30-50 to the cost, which is not fair to pass to you guys with the current market. Unless something changes it will ship in its bare form with legs attached. You WILL need your own > 4GB SD card for the ARM controller this comes with. Instructions and SD image will be provided before you receive the miner.
Please keep this thread about questions on ordering/shipping etc, and any questions on the miner or anything else keep in the general thread linked above.
