I did one transaction inside paypal, and that was done outside of eBay.   The paypal one worries me, but the guy seems very understanding and is okay with shipping in April.  The other the guy wired funds, so no worries on that one.

I had to say shipping in 30 days and then tell them the real deal via email or phone and see if they were ok with it. Paypal has to be done in two transactions if over 10k.  Works just fine for me.

I get that, I had done the same and almost a month later ebay and Paypal reversed it since I couldn't meet the delivery timeline set in the auction, since it was over $10K they actually flagged it for follow-up.

I hope it works for you, I was curious to see if you navigated the waters any different than I did..

Both Neptunes sold in about a minute on ebay. Thank you.

Do you mind sharing the price you sold them for?
Also how do you handle the trust issue?
How do you make the buyer trust you that you will ship the miners after you receive them?

Thank you.

$16,500 and I think I was too low.  I didn't do an auction.  Just buy now button.  

I've had trouble getting paid, for Jupiters. I've had some good buyers but many don't know the limits of Paypal, etc. before bidding and in the end I find many were looking to credit card it through Paypal..

Did you have any trouble getting paid or did you run into ebay's policies, they only allow pre-sales less than 30 days out unless you get specific permission to sell further out and they reserve the right to reverse the sale after the fact.

Have any of the people with a Neptune on order looked into the viability of the 20nm ASIC and how likely it is to offer any advantage over 28nm technology?

I ask because this article raises serious questions over the benifits of 20nm tech:
http://www.altera.co.uk/technology/system-design/articles/2012/20nm-systems-era.html

NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang publicly questioned the economic viability of the whole 20 nm node, saying that its cost per transistor might never drop below that of 28 nm.


KnC has broadly delivered so far, but the question is - is it even possible to fab a 20nm chip that is any better than a 28nm ASIC in terms of hash power/cost?

i have neptunes i´d like to sell for the same conditions, escrow possible.

the neptunes are all very first batch (available only for existing customers, order # is 133xx).

i had pre-ordered 11 jupiters in mai, visited knc in stockholm on their open day 2013 and sold the jupiters in october and november 2013. sebastianJu was escrow and can confirm.

i am a well known member of the german bitcoin community, so all straight.

edit:
pls pm

Yes, that makes sense and I can do that.  But the price can't go below $14,000.  Also, if the shipping date goes past a mutually specified date, then you can call the whole deal off too.

Are you willing to escrow and guarantee a delivery date?

I can guarantee that I can ship out the unit the day after it arrives at the very latest.  I can't guarantee KnC's delivery date, because they have not provided me with a guarantee.

Also, if KnC allows me, I will simply change the shipping address, to your address.
You can't guarantee it but you can specify that if they are past a certain date then the purchase price goes down.  That would make it a lot more attractive since you are looking for a profit over and above what ou paid.

I bought a Neptune off some here in the forum and KNC wouldn't entertain change of address, even if you're changing to an existing customer.

don't know why not now, because I did the same thing when I bought a Jupiter last year and they did change it without a problem.

go figure Huh

I am interested, but only if you are willing to escrow.  You don't have enough clout or feedback here to be trustworthy to hold the equivalent value of 20 of my BTC for several months.

But then if you are willing to escrow (and thus delay your receipt of the funds that you say you need), why are you selling?  I expect you won't be willing to escrow for this reason.

Yes, I will consider Escrow on one of the machines.  But the other is needed up front.  I need fiat...

I would do this for the one machine that accepts escrow.
