Group Buy for 2.2-2.7 GH/s Blue Fury USB Miners
I made this because there seems to be an interest in these units in my country (Philippines) so if there are enough local people, all orders will be local.
So I'm making one for at least one or two batches, and also hopefully all orders will be local. International buyers are also welcome. People in other neighboring countries are encouraged to order here, so we can all have some chips in this region.
If you are closer to the United States, Canada or Europe, please order from the other resellers at their thread:

Shipping Address if you will not pick up. Or one of the locations below if you will pick up.
The buying window opens now and closes when BPMC stops selling units.
ShipmentThe units will be forwarded to you as soon as I receive them and you paid the fiat component mentioned above. Delivery within the country will usually take less than a week; overseas will take what it takes. You will be given the option to select shipment method on time and resolve customs specific issues. Also you can pick it up if you are in the Philippines. See below.
TrustIf you are residing in the Philippines, you can come and see me.
If you are here, I have at least 19 pick up locations all over Metro Manila where you can get your chips (meaning no shipping, just pick it up.)
I have a brick and mortar shop in these locations, therefore I can hold your chips there until you pick it up. They are located in:
1. Glorietta 3
2. SM Bicutan
3. SM Manila
4. SM Mega Mall
5. SM Fairview
6. SM Mall of Asia
7. SM Cubao
8. SM North EDSA
9. Festival Supermall
10. Rockwell Manansala
11. Ayala Trinoma
12. SM Calamba
13. Molito Mall Puregold (near Alabang Town Center)
14. Metro Gaisano Mall (near Alabang Town Center)
15. SM Center Pasig
16. SM Makati Annex
17. The Podium
18. Hotel InterContinental Manila
19. Robinsons Place Manila
There are a few more locations, but they're kinda far already. Anyone else will have to ask for shipping by Air21 (FedEx) or LBC or some other courier of your choice. I have some business in Cebu, but I will still have to ship the chips anyway.
GPG ID: 32AD7565, OTC ID: DabsCommunicationI live in the Philippines (TZ: UTC+08) and have an exhausting day-job, which limits me to communicate in my evening hours. So if I did not respond to your email or your post within some hours, it is just because I'm at work. Or I'm already asleep. Please be patient.
additional clarifications
EscrowI did not offer escrow for a simple reason: as soon as the payments come in, I'll order. No idea how long the chips and units will be in stock, but I would like to act fast.
Actually, you can think of this as a self-escrow. I am facilitating the group buy for Filipinos and other people who are staying in or near the Philippines.
Reservation, PaymentsYour order is your reservation. Only BTC payments. There are several local bitcoin traders here. The blockchain is the indisputable proof of your payment, let's use it as is and prevent manual accounting.
WARNING: Difficulty is going upDifficulty is going up. You better know what you're doing. Once the units are bought, that's it. Either you do this for fun, or learning, or you don't mind getting an ROI of 6 to 12 months on this investment.
Cheers,
Dabs
P.S. Here is a picture of me, from another thread. This is in 2009 when I got married. I am an officer and a gentleman. If you are Filipino or know someone in the military, you can show this picture to them. They won't recognize me, but they will recognize the badges and pins. They might also recognize the background as the chapel or church where I got married inside Camp General Emilio Aguinaldo, Quezon City.
On the right pocket (left looking at me) is a rifle sharpshooter badge under my name plate.
On the left pocket (right looking at me) are the light armor badge and the field artillery badge.
The yellow egg looking badge is Special Forces.
There are additional pins in my updated uniform this year.
Some portions have been blurred to prevent local insurgents and rebels from making me an assassination target.
I am not going to take your bitcoins, and trust me, no one is going to attempt to take your chips away from me.
Oh, I have a Commission on Elections Certificate of Authority, which means, I am exempted from the gun ban during this election period. I carry a full size 1911 in 45 ACP, always, everywhere.
