unless you have super cheap electricity or free electricity its impossible to profit from their new prices even if reduced.

Well, you don't really need to buy them to mine. You can always buy them to resell it (more profit this way).

You can ROI at 0.000879/GHS but you will need some cooling device.

Miners are listed at up to 2$/GHS on ebay so 4times more expensive than buying to a mining hardware company or on a cloudmining site and they sell at 0.5-1$/GHS.

ANTMINER C1 Batch 3- Cooling Kits Excluded- 1000GHS are sold at 0.000879/GHS but I don't know and I don't think shipping is included.

It is easier to go on cloudminr and buy 2000GHS at 0.0011/GHS with no maintenance fee

Risk of cloud miners , company going under , you pay in advance right , so u lose when they close before u finish . Buy hardware maintenance is a must , is your house cold ? They make great heaters . A real incentive for those living in cold places.

You are right, you take a risk either way.

A real incentive to mine at home is to have free electricity Tongue

I find that purchasing the miners from Bitmain directly will be more expensive. In my experience buying them a little after launch from a reseller is cheaper. a re-seller buys them in bulk thus lowering his price per unit. if its a good honest re-seller he then passes some of those savings on to you. making your purchase slightly cheaper.

Just be carefull if cheap resellers are collecting orders, but finally don't deliver. Another scamm approach.

Bitcointalk have resellers that are trusted and get discounts but you always add a bit more risk by choosing this route.

According to forum rules, staff do not remove what appear to be scams, but that doesn't stop us from being able to say THIS IS LIKELY A SCAM. Hit up their trust ratings accordingly if you believe so.

Wait for antminer S5, it would deliver a lot of hash in a very compact box (hopefully not too heavy). So the shipment should be cheaper in a way..

Is it really worth it buying new equipment even if the btc price is falling? The electricity cost would even eat your profits.

Some don't pay for electricity or pay a very low price and some can have a BTC ROI in mining. Also the price of BTC may rise.

I agree, that it is overpriced.
I wanted to buy 50 maybe 100 units S3+ and I received offer  278USD/1 unit incl. transport, which is higher than price 2 month ago (!). But difficulty is now aprox. 33% higher.
So for such price it is absolutely non sense and unprofitable.

278USD could be profitable if you can resell those on Ebay after you mine for a few months.

0.68BTC for 441Ghs is 0.001541/Ghs, still too much
