Topic: (CLOSED) UK/EU [Group Buy 1] ASICMiner Erupter USB 2.3BTC each (Read 4762 times)

I have organized the second group buy at 2.01 BTC per USB miner in Chinese local board (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/usb-225733 ), which don't cover the shipping fee. If someone are interested in it, I will start a new thread in English here.

P.S.  The first group buy with escrow service is 2.07 BTC per USB miner. The link is here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/closedgroup-buy-asicminer-erupter-usb-from-china-escrowed-by-john-john-k-221484 .

thats true but people should think of it a 2nd way 1 of these vs a 6870 in speed and 50 of these vs a 6870 on power anyone who dosnt get some fourm of ASIC soon is goin to regret it when even the latest gpus arnt profitable. the nice thing about these is there available and atually being made in numbers.. ill admit they should be around the 1 btc mark not 2 but at the end of the day your btc income will be the same as a 6870 but without the electric bill. so youll get to keep almost all the earnings. i run 2 5870s and a 6870 makin 1 ghs i pay almost £80 for power a month so its most of my earnings gone... see my point?

It's not your price/profit, or the p&p that's the problem

The demand for these is now very low, people with lots of BTC or who wanted the latest gadget have already bought.

The rest (and they are the majority) only buy if it makes economic sense to do so, and these are the worst ROI of anything else on the market.

edited and lowerd the price ill make a little bit on p&p but if bitcoin tumbles ill loose money on it

come on guys 2.3 per device and 0.1 to 0.2 for shipping is a pretty sweet deal now

maybe theres not as much demand in the UK as i thought....

THIS GROUP BUY IS CLOSED. DO NOT SEND BTC.

right dropped the P&P price to 0.4 for special and 0.2 for 2-3 days and im not going anylower if you buy 2 items or more im beating the price of anyone in the UK or EU and dont forget the P&P is a one off charge for upto 10 items

20% tax of USD 1.99 which is what friedcat marks the value as is about 30p

It's best to make your profit on the item and be transparent with your shipping, a box will cost around £0.80 to £1.50 each depending on size and quality, bubble wrap is £16 for 500mm x 100m so probably 10p of that, a label 2p

assuming its multiple items
11.00 Special Delivery up to 2kg insured up to £500
1.50 box
0.10 bubble wrap
0.02 label
0.02 invoice
0.66 1minute of time @ £40ph packing time
3.33 5 minutes of time @ £40ph post office time
=£16.63

A single item would cost
6.95 Special Delivery
0.80 box
0.10 bubble wrap
0.02 label
0.02 invoice
0.66 1minute of time @ £40ph packing time
3.33 5 minutes of time @ £40ph post office time
=£11.88

It does strike of profiteering a little, particularly as you're adding an awful lot onto postage and we all know how much that costs. It comes across badly.

the reason special delivery is so much is if it turns into a big order im going to be pushing special delivery items to the front of the que which is going to be a little bit of trouble not to mention the fact ill be bubble wrapping everything and the fact i might get hit with the UKs wonderful 20% tax

theres quite a few factors to take into account

P&P is very cheap in the UK :-)

Even up to 2Kg is only £11 special delivery.

APC will do it for £6.50 if the volume is high enough.

Next day delivery with Royal Mail, 500g package with £500 insurance is £6.95.

Your price of 0.5 BTC works out at about £39.

As alot of people may have notice nothing seems to come to the UK and very little to the EU so heres your chance to get a good deal on a
ASICMiner Erupter USB, they build it and bulk ship to me and then i package them in little boxes and ship them to you... pretty simple really

Price of Device (P&P not included)
2.3BTC each
2.2BTC 10+

P&P isnt that cheap in the UK and everything will be signed for and insured to the correct amount
EU buyers wont have a problem with customs or customs fees as we are all in the EU (useful sometimes)

UK P&P options
overnight (UK only)
    0.2 BTC (Flat Rate per parcel) (limited spots)
2-3 Days
    0.1 BTC (Flat Rate per parcel) (cheapest i can do with Royal mail)

EU
2-4 days
    0.2 BTC (Flat Rate per parcel)(cheapest i can do with Royal mail)

***Please note P&P is not per item but per parcel maximum is 10 USB miners per parcel
