It seems we all want to use our credits.
Canary is there anyway I can buy my own 100 and send them immediately to you as if I bought them from you then go from there?
Ps. We have no idea how much more for
assembly right?
Pps. I cant afford 100 chips, im will to split 50 50 with someone. You get my 42 chip discount. But you must pay up
front. This is void if canary doesn't like this at all.
If you buy your own, you can then assemble them on your own or have them sent to assemblers.Canary is there anyway I can buy my own 100 and send them immediately to you as if I bought them from you then go from there?

my group buy does not utilize credits offered by purchasers. I already purchased 3500 credits and intend to use them. there are other group buys that should allow you to use your credits, check out their pricing.
I would just caution that the BFL engine is a bga144 package. You're not going to hand solder that. You need something like this: http://www.manncorp.com/smt/prod-483/BGA-SMD-rework-station-BR790HD.html?gclid=CMCBt9m_8bcCFdKj4AodIUsAjw to successfully work bgas although people will claim they've done it with hotplates. I wouldn't risk a $75 chip trying a hotplate though.
Avalons you can work if you have a nice smaller rework setup.
I'm in for 8
Ok sorry. I don't want to deal with boards without you

Read post #1 & #2...Not sure if I'm reading it right but seems like you're getting a designer to create a board for these BFL chips?
So GB is for chips but there's a potential of a working board for these chips.
And you suggest 8-16 chips because that's what the board will req.?
Yes, there are hardware guys working on BFL boards. not all are doing it because of me, I'm not so special! LOL, there are lots of independent folks who are working on them.So GB is for chips but there's a potential of a working board for these chips.

8-16 suggestion is based on what BFL has produced with their own boards... but I'm guessing PCBs that accept 1 chip may be produced as well.

I don't think you are asking for a profit yet. But id be willing to tip 1 btc, I don't want to deal with the boards. I trust you too much.

Sorry newb here but these chips are useless unless you have a board design for them?
no problem that you're a newb, but I'd like to invite you to read the post, at least #1 and #2. there are other threads that have your answers.Welcome to bitcointalk!
Thanks Canary, will do.

I already have 96 chip credits myself - so how would this group buy work for me?
this group would not be using your credits. you can buy chips on this group at .6 btc per chipAhhh ok.
That's why you were trying to buy all those credits for $2 - so then you can sell the chips for .6BTC (~$63) - so you make about $11 per chip.
So for every group buy of 100 chips, you make about $1000.
Smart move.
I bought credits at market rates. started at $10 per credit all the way down to $1.

System designers, I'm willing to send you chips from my personal orders so that you can test your boards. If you are reputable, please contact me. If you're not reputable, please don't ask me for chips. you'll get fish instead.
Updates:
intron has contacted me and will work on BFL hardware. He is currently also involved with bitfury's chip. his profile: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/intron-90707

While I'm not a reputable designer, I would be interested in contributing to the hardware design for this chip - although I have no experience, I am a EE major and interested in learning. How would I start contributing to this project? (I don't think I would accomplish much with a chip)
