No I am buying the cheap breakout boards on eBay for $10 and bulk pcie cables through my business. I am all in $51 per psu.

Gotcha, but you need 2 right? So you're at $102.00. Good to know!

Do you always get dinged for customs? I don’t have it happen to me often when I use DHL. When I use UPS I do. Also I don’t buy bitmains psus as I source hp 1200w server power supplies for $30/each.

I've been using UPS because I have an account with them. Interesting on DHL, I'll have to try that next time, but yes each time with UPS it's been around $50 for the miner nothing on the PSUs.

Are you making your own breakout boards? Even at $30 each that's still 60$ plus breakout boards. $105 just seemed to be a better deal. But I am open to creative solutions Smiley

If these were in the $16-1800.00 range I'd purchase, but by the time you add a 105.00 PSU, 200 or so shipping and 50.00 customs to that 2100 no thanks.

It's not a horrible deal, but I feel that they will be adjusting their prices soon. No real evidence, just my feeling.

'The right to privacy matters'
I was able to buy six with some different bitmain logins I had. For the reliability it’s a no brainer to supplement my s9 farm. People balk at this price but snatch up Avalons immediately. When these are proven to be much more reliable than s9s, I don’t get it....

they simply hate bitmain.

My issue with it is  they delayed my Dec s-9  for 26 days  and gave me no coupon.

They did it to a lot of us.  Would be an easy purchase to make if I had  gotten compensation for that delayed order.

This unit's price is okay  but not great  about 2100 usd

It nets me 202-214 a month  that is a 10 month or more roi

frankly my gpus have been better.

most likely I will stick with them

It's been several minutes and not sold out. I hope this recent BTC dip at the same time the T9+ went up for sale and the lack of interest push Bitmain to lower their prices.

LOL I know, but I have to stay optimistic Smiley

Looks like they lasted 1 hour 20 minutes.

Back in stock now and they reset the 2/person limit so that one can purchase 2 additional units.

Man bitmain really knows how to go for the jugular. Pangolin releases their miners at a flop price of $2350 to ship out in 7 days and its just sitting on their site. Now bitmain sends an email that they are releasing T9+ tonight with a 10 day shipment window. Any speculation on price here?
I hope it's better than 24900 Yuan price that they had it for on the Chinese site. At almost $4000, there's no way I would buy one.

With the limit of 2 per person I have as feeling this will be a good price. But I could be wrong...

If it is priced around 1200 usd, I will buy, but if it is much more than that, I will probably pass.

Evil beware: We have waffles!
Hi all. I am a newbie here as well as to Bitcoin world. So my question might sound stupid... anyway, I've heard that when the new Antminer comes, the old ones are not working to their full effect, or mining not as profitable as they were previously. So for example, we have now antminer S9 which let's is making a 100$ profit per month, when T9 will come would be S9 less effective just only because there is a new machine out there? So any ideas? Sorry for my bad English. Thanks in advance!!!
The S9 and T9 are brothers. Same basic design, same chips. Only difference is that the T9 was built better and runs at a higher chip voltage - that makes the T9 less power efficient but also make it more stable. It has been over 1 year since Bitmain made (very few) T9 and I doubt they will ever make more.

If and when a new batch is released, the network hashrate increases due to miners turning on and hashing away, decreasing block times and increasing difficulty. It’s not just a new miner coming out by itself that profitability begins to instantly decrease but more a matter of difficulty too.
