If we ebay this, how would funds be distributed?  And how do you protect yourself against chargebacks?

I'm FOR selling as long as it's ridiculously in our favor (like ebay).  

Selling for 11BTC isn't really in our favor.  That's only .055 btc payout per share and we're still .24/share in the red.
USD would be converted to BTC at current exchange rate at time of funds hitting the bank account, to prevent chargebacks the only thing that can be done would be requiring signature confirmation on delivery.

As it stands now, I'm holding on my 4 R6 votes until we get more details.

We now have R19 Neptune set up by request from our co-op.

However, I can't believe the prices that people are actually *still* paying on ebay for these:

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_from=R40&_nkw=knc+jupiter&LH_Complete=1&rt=nc

What's the general consensus on this? Even w/ ebay's awful fees, we'd still all stand to gain by selling soon, if that's what our majority want. A sale at this price is likely to be well over what the unit will generate (unless BTC prices continue to skyrocket).

If so: let me know as I need to go get my PayPal acct. out of limited status (they're not happy when you do a CC chargeback on BFL Jallys outside PayPal's 45 day refund window). That or we'll sell it thru Thomas's or Philip's account, if he's game.

Starting a vote. Please vote and tell your friends and tell other R5-6 co-op members to vote if you'd like to influence this vote.

Also: please follow up with a PM or public vote, including your number of share votes. We'll hold voting thru Saturday evening. Hopefully everyone will have stopped by before then.

Please also feel free to discuss the pros vs. cons of this early sale.

Thanks!

How about selling one (with a starting price +$25k) and keeping the other, distributing hashrate and proceeds between both R5 & R6?



Let's take a minute here to define EXACTLY what we are talking about here otherwise a vote is meaningless.
When I first read this thread and voted the above quotes were what I based my vote on,

But with this as an option
as a price point  ant miner is selling a non auction right here


https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/official-first-group-buy-bitmain-antminer-s1-30-units-348747   

they ask 4.25 BTC for a 180 gh machine.   this is a flat price.   seems to me we could list our 1 for 11 BTC  it would be a bargain compared to the 180 gh x 3 = 12.75  for 540 gh for unproved tech.

 while we would be 11 BTC for 550gh proven tech.

I would probably change my vote. Starting at 20 or 25K but then considering 11btc (11K) is half of what I voted on.

In order to make this valid I believe we need to set a price that we sell at, anything less than that and we keep hashing.

Its hard to vote when the target is changing by 50% or more

 sell I have 19 share 10 in r5 and 9 in r6 or

maybe 9 in r5 and 10 in r6      but either way I have 19 shares combined.

  My 1 condition is I would like to try an auction here with BTC only and a minimum bid  say 8tc which is about 8k. this really stops all charge back issues.   Based on the lack of gear and our coop's rep We should get  8btc easy much more base on this auction

If you'd like to officially vote for this, please vote publicly or send a PM to thomas_s., -Redacted-, or myself, with the number of shares you own.

For example, via PM:

Subject: R5/R6 vote

Yes, please sell
3 shares R5, 3 shares R6


or publicly:

Keep Mining
3 shares R5, 3 shares R6


We need the voting equivalent of 101 R5/R6 GB shares (out of 200) to sell a Jupiter.

in thinking more we could auction off both machines set a minimum at 8btc run the model like this auction


https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/auction-antminer-s1-180ghs-360w-on-wall-fast-auction-start-at-only-1-btc-344948    if we got 10btc for each machine  which is possible..  


 that is about 20btc at 950 usd or 19000.  plus all the dividends.  

and bob could still host to the winner of the auction until either the winner came to pick it up had it shipped off or told bob keep hosting.


selling 2 machines at auction on this site could net  us 19.5k     or 97.50 usd a share we paid in 79 usd a share IIRC.


  not counting all the btc  we already got plus the btc due to us.  on the 30th of nov.  (about 11btc for the 2 buys and growing)

  if the auctions did well we may get 12 or 13 btc for each one  that is 25btc  and 11btc for the dividends = 36btc or near 36000  across both buys comes to 180 usd a share.

plus whatever we got on the oct 15 oct 30 nov 15 payments.  

My dad was a compulsive gambler   he bet all he had all the time.  He used to tell me  whenever you have a chance to have a certain winner always do it.
 

   The idea of converting this buy into close to 36000 usd   with the sale of the 2 machines and the upcoming dividends really appeals to me. Quite a bit.
I already cashed all payments as they came so at this point in time for every 100 in I got 102 back.

If the sales above worked I would clear  about 3420 usd. from it.  I have already cashed for 1522 usd   


so that would mean all my income on this = 4942   I paid in 1482  .    that is a good deal.

'The right to privacy matters'
makes sense .  now if I list it .  we need to figure out a way to prevent charge backs.  I would be honest  to say I love the sell it idea but we may be better off selling it right here on this site.


look at this auction right here.  

 https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/auction-antminer-s1-180ghs-360w-on-wall-fast-auction-start-at-only-1-btc-344948


 they got 4.75 btc for a 180gh machine..    no one knows if the machine is good.


  we have a 550gh working machine


 if we got 3x that it would be 14.25btc for a machine  no chargebacks.  


 the price when that machine sold was 800 usd btc is now 936.


   I would think someone would buy this at more then 10 btc in an auction easy.

  we could set the first bid at 8 btc  that is break even price .      so we would have paid 0 for the shares.  and all dividends are your profit.
