Topic: [CLOSED]R3/R4: Extended HF FLASH SALE PRICING! 2 HF Sierras, At-Cost+Host, PAID - page 13. (Read 16243 times)

I still owe you for a share right?

And that's why you're my boy, Blue! Oops, wrong movie (ref: Old School).

In all honesty, what you did is beyond the reach (or sanity?) of most BTC miners.  

====


As for the R3/R4 wallet: Seeing 47BTC total in there. Blockchain shows the current value of that to be a little south of $4.8K total.

====

Getting to who paid what & how much in a minute. I may have to answer R1 & R2 related PMs later tonight or tomorrow.

Floating a couple of shares via PayPal as well so I'll be buying BTC on behalf of 2 people and their 1 share each; trying not to make a habit of it but it's not my fault that PP is so anti-BTC & makes it so difficult for you to convert it to a much better electronic currency.

I'll add some funds from my mcxNOW account, separate from the R2 funds, so you may see a smaller payment in the blockchain after the main deposit.

Hey ive dropped 20k on my hosting facility for these things... just trying to get my money back

Back on the case: focus is getting a down payment on 2 Sierras tonight at Flash Sale Pricing. Target: 50% down payments on Round 3 and Round 4 Sierras

$5400 for Sierra w/ MPP
$3000 for Sierra, naked as the day it's gonna be born

In less than 4 hours I'll be sending the biggest possible down payments I can to secure both Sierras. I promised John we'd have the rest by Friday. Right gents & ladies?

John's exact words were "send what you can", so I'll take him at his word.  

Looks like there's share movement. Amazing thing about having 3 GBs that show up as light blue on TGB is that I can offer people that come to me different at-cost pricing options and delivery times that fit what they're trying to do.

==

Alright, I'll be back to update numbers. Lots of pressure taken off that we don't have to have 100% payment on both. But try to get whatever you can in before 8:30PM HST (approx. 2 Hrs, 20 minutes from now). Please label your payment & associated PM with the Round number you're paying for to keep the record straight for both of us.

Getting to PMs in a second. Please be patient w/ me. You can also send you share reservations & payment details to thomas_s so we can both bear the load since we're co-GBCs. Please don't worry about your share ownership or payment confirmations as long as you PMed me and/or thomas_s.  Just a wee bit busy at the moment, for a couple of GBCs during a flash sale while also having a family (at least for me) & a wife that gets pissed if I spend too much time here w/ y'all.  

"A little more redundancy doesn't hurt" is a motto every server monkey like myself goes by. I will say that we have a lady (I believe) joining us thanks to our ebay listing! So the credit for that goes to kolohe bobsag3 & he of the: "hey, let's do a 2nd Sierra during the 3 day sale on a Sunday" since he just had to suggest it, sit back, & watch the fireworks. Had me scrambling to call HF this morning & everything eheh.

As soon as I start getting it in, Ill take as many pictures as I can w/o compromising security.

Pictures, or it isn't true

The nerd in me wishes that I was there to see all that nerdcandy.


A few more shares were just reserved for R4

For my hosting facility update:

Got the building, power internet all setup today.
Tomorrow I get all the cable, surge protectors, racks and a half pallet of PSUs.

Quick update: 4 more shares reserved! This is for 1 share & 3 shares to two anonymous gentlemen.

Please send PM reservations to thomas_s for the next few hours, and when he needs to go, he'll make a public statement here letting you that his "shift" here is over. Thanks! No time to get to PMs right now, but it's the first thing on my list when I get home tonight.

74 shares available at $69/ea. worth 12-15GH/s est. Dec. 1 delivery.

I can reply to PM's today =)

Instead of sending DZ a ton of PM's for reservations send the reservations to me I'll send him 1 PM with all the reservations.

Thanks! Hey, at least I moved it up to 85 shares reserved before sales start.    

If we get to 85 shares, I'm guessing the last 15 will vanish soon after, the way these things go. ...And since I took the extra step of calling John this Monday Morning to stall on full payments for 2 Sierras, this appears to be the only place *anywhere* you can lock in Flash Sale pricing that ends tonight, all the way through this Friday.

...still digging ditches and carrying water, for y'all. I'll add more details of my 12.5 minute call with the head of HashFast marketing this morning, including stuff that's not available in any other thread or news site.

Oh - like that's fair - you're going to give it an entire extra week on the GB just to get me to cough up for another ten shares....  

Offer still stands, with THIS COMING FRIDAY as the deadline to get the other 90 shares in place....   

I can't get to PMs this morning. I'll have to address them this afternoon. My apologies.


However...big news! I just talked to John at HF.

I've secured *TWO* Sierras at Flash Sale with payment due this Friday. We need to pay 50% (his exact words: "send whatever you have") for both units (1 MPP, 1 Non-MPP) with payment due at the end of the business week.

Great news! Thx to your GBC's diligent efforts: We don't have as much pressure to reserve all 90 shares today for Sierra #2!

==

With that said, I'll hold -Redacted- to what he said about 10 shares to move things along. To compensate, buying won't open for R4 until we hit 85 shares reserved. BTW, R3's payments are still in movement from co-op members. R3 order's secure; we just don't have all the funds quite yet (but most of 'em).

So: 78 shares available! And we have till Friday to pay for the balance of both R3 & R4!


====

All 4 spreadsheets for all 4 of my active GBs will be updated tonight.

Also: tidbit you won't anywhere else - John S. needs to confirm w/ eng. team but even a Pi w/ enough powered USB ports should be enough to control a rack of Sierras.

He's marketing; not 100% sure, but he says any cheap 1RU server (or even Pi) should be able run a rack of Sierras as long as one has enough USB ports with enough oomph (that's a technical term).

By my count thats 88 shares left

So, if you can get within 10 shares of closing this out on time, I'll take those last 10...

2 Shares reserved for one of my previous customers

Ok, I'm really heading to bed. (Ha, I keep saying that on my threads) but I had to share this from the donation recipient from R1:

I'm still around, and that is my deposit address. Been fighting off a bad kidney infection through the last half of august and the first half of september. Feeling much better now, but as I live in XXXX, kinda feel like I missed 1/3 of the summer, as fall is definitely here.

But enough with the unpleasant nature of physical existence, and onto the brighter note of bitcoin in general and the inherent goodness of people in specific! I was very touched by the thought that a fellow bitcoin convert a half a world away, who I've never met nor will meet, would be kind enough to think of me. This is why I love bitcoin and the principles and people behind it! It's been a rough few weeks, and finding this random spark of human kindness in my inbox made my whole month.

Mahalo to you, and Mahalo nui loa to the anonymous donor! - from the anon. donor from my R1 GB.

FWIW, the kidney infection is NOT the disability but more of a complication of the major underlying disability.

Reddit mention of thomas_s and the anonymous hero's awesomeness:

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1my62l/true_story_i_tried_to_raise_19k_in_3_days_for_2/

Thomas, you're Reddit Bitcoin famous now, FWIW.  Because no good deed should go unpunished.

Heading to bed. Hopefully R4 takes off, if not: at least we have 100% have a Sierra to be ordered & paid tomorrow night for R3. I will pull funds from my R2 buyout of Order 616 & my mcxNOW account to make sure of it, if we're a little short. Also, we'll see what John S. at HF says about 50% secured Flash Sale Sierras. Cross your fingers.

As for the R2 funds I use for R3/R4, if necessary: I can always replenish what I use for R2 intended shares via Coinbase for my own use.

Spreadsheet updates to follow tomorrow. I'm sure y'all would rather I work my okole off doing work then making ASCII code spreadsheets look purty (as long as the info's all up to date & correct in my other records).

Registering tripppn's reservation for 1 share.

90 shares left!

2 more shares reserved!

Also a couple of ebay inquires. Hopefully, some more shares are sold on ebay again for HashFast shares (sold 4 HF shares on ebay last month).

91 shares available on this non-MPP $6K 1200GH/s+ (likely 1500GH/s) Sierra miner that needs to have an order in within 13.25 hours.
