Topic: Buying Miners in Bulk [Building a Solo Farm] (Read 1015 times)
Will you be able to buy miners all the time to keep up with the difficulty ?
Hey Guys,
So my once little hobby has exploded into a full fledged job. I need to get my hands on around 200 S3 Antminers... Customer support at Bitmain is swamped, understandably. Now I am not solely concerned with S3 miners, I will buy anything that I can get my hands on. Obviously I would like to buy some of the more advanced recent machines with favorable $/Gh/S and W/Gh/s ratios, but honestly I might go for some S2s as well. Please, please, please don't suggest Butterfly Labs, for reasons I think we can all agree on. ANY input from you guys would be great, any suggestions or leads are fantastic. I hate to be one of the posters who puts "conditions" on my post, but I have made my decision as far as mining goes, it's a whole lot of fun and I am OK losing some of the money invested, so it would be great not to get a bunch of "you should just buy the coins" posts. Anyways, I am really interested to hear what you guys have to say so lay it on me!
Best Regards,

They have good customer service. I've bought several S2 without the coupon. They send the price in dollars, the price of the coupon had already been deducted, and I paid the BTC for by the exchange rate of the S2 orders.
For larger purchases, just ask the price, if you really want to buy 100 pieces S3.
Cheaper than the manufacturer can not take them anywhere.
I have purchased a total of 16 pieces of S2, replacing one power supply and one power board, which bitmain customer support sent me.
I'm happy with them.
I currently mine with 20Th/s .
1 TH/s bitfury rigs
7 TH/s KNC (6 modules of Nov. Jupiter)
12 TH/s Antminer S2
They newer ROI , I do not see any reason for increase it to 4x , to earn maximum 2 BTC one day.
160 S1 here in EU. Most work fine on 200gh/s.
I have 250 S1 Available if you're interested.
