Please state and agree to the conditions (if item is received damaged, item lost with tracking, customs fee etc) beforehand.

Do note that I am only responsible for the funds up to the point it is sent to ASICMiner.
Any losses incurred by ASICMiner's or Simon66's failure to ship/reship will not be borne by me, but I will release the following data to aid in litigation actions.

The verbal acceptance by both parties (or the failure to reject) and the sending of Bitcoins to the escrow address above constitutes the acceptance of the terms and conditions stated, and the activation of this Contract.

Please understand that I am assuming the risk of holding the escrowed Bitcoins, and I am using my own time to facilitate this transaction.   
I am imposing a fixed and nonrefundable fee of 2% for this transaction, to be deducted when the funds are moved.

Thank you.

I confirm the receipt of the scan of driver's license from OP, and a photo of OP with his DL. I'll issue the escrow contract shortly.

If you're in the US it will take 4 to 5 business days for the items to get there. If you want it to be convered by insurance it will cost you 20.88 BTC. I've updated the first post. Once I get 50 units, send the payment to friedcat and ship it to you when I get it(Within 1 business day)


I understand your point, but keep in mind that I've been registered since last year (I know it doesn't count for much). If I wanted to pull a scam, I would have done it a long time ago hahaha.

These prices will change on the second group buy. You can just order 1 if you're unsure.


If you can find an escrow that would be fine, but I'm pretty sure he will charge us.

That is my problem with it too. I would easily buy 3 if I could escrow or something else.

any jr member can start a service like this, what's your credibility?

Sorry if this was mentioned in the OP, but I couldn't figure it out. I am interested in buying 10...but wondering what is your timeline of ordering these? Do you already have these on hand, or are you waiting for a 50+ items ordered here, and then will place the order on your side. Trying to understand when I should expect these.

I am in US btw.

Is escrow available?
BTW what's the hash rate on these again?

I've talked to friedcat about shipping info. Prices should stay as is. Keep in mind that these packages will be tracked too!

I didn't see your group buy post, sorry.
Also, I know a way to avoid the Import duties cost (I will still need to pay extra I think).

Please keep in mind that prices might change. If the price doesn't change after 24 hours then it will stay fixed!

Prices will stay as is.

UPDATE: This is a group buy for 50 units. Once I reach that goal I'll send the payment to friedcat.

UPDATE2: I've got John K. to escrow for us.

Welcome to my amazing Canadian/US Block Erupter USB group buy!
My prices don't beat CanaryInTheMine but for Canadians, this is an awesome group buy!

Read bellow to find out why

Orders Completed:

Product Description

payment accepted is Bitcoin.
    the minimum order quantity is 50, maximum has not been specified, but there probably will be a maximum.
    Each one mines at more than 300MH/s, powered only by the USB port.
    It serves as a replacement of GPUs for mining hobbyists.
    Your GPUs could be freed from calculating hashes and resume rendering for you.
