I am selling my 4chip slot for 1BTC right now, 1st and 2nd half of the payments paid.
This is hashing power equal to 4 x 4 GH/s = 16 GH/s

You can PM me if you are interested.

 
SOLD, THANKS

As bonus, I can bundle 256 chip credits (although it is not mentioned on BitMit, after purchase you can send me your address to transfer the credits to).

THEY ARE SOLD, THANKS FOR LOOKING

Payment sent.

Also, what happens if people in the group buy don't want to pay the final payment?

Someone may get a chance to buy half price chips I would guess!

You can already buy it almost half price. I am selling my 96 chip slot in this group buy for 35BTC. MrTeal approved that I can transfer my slot.

For people who are interested in MrTeal's soon to be ready boards and want to get the product soon, I have 96 chips worth of chip credits invested with original group board/chip buy, 1st and 2nd half of the payments paid. I am willing to sell my share for less than the price I paid in BTC. Basically you get the hardware for 1/4the price of what BFL sells so it is a big win.

I paid ~48BTC for 1st and 2nd half for 96 chip. I am willing to transfer my boards for 30BTC if you want all 96 chips... (this is hashing power equal to 7.5x 50gh units that BFL is selling for $2500 each, it is a bargain!)

If you are interested in using escrow (although it is quite trivial for MrTeal to transfer my purchase to you), I have put my slot on sale on Bitmit!

You can PM me if you are interested (I can go even lower on the price but not much more) or buy from BitMit.

Well, the deposit is non-refundable, so I guess I'd contact BFL and have them reduce the order by X units. I don't see that happening, but it might.

Just bumping this up. I will be PMing everyone individually, but it's now time to start collecting the remaining 50% in order to pay BFL for the chips. I've spoken with BFL, and the reels of chips are scheduled to ship on Sept 30th.
I'm going to start collecting the balance immediately, and I will be paying BFL on Thursday Sept 29th. As such, I need everyone's final payment by 6pm UTC (noon MDT), one week from today.

For those that are going to have the chips mounted on boards, I should have an announcement on that either later today or tomorrow.

Thanks
BTW - Sorry for the impersonal form PMs. It's the only way to keep the process down to a reasonable time.

We should be (as far as I know of) the first group to have a non-BFL reference design up and running, so I'm pretty happy will progress thus far.
That's awesome!!

I agree. This is all very cool.

As a quick update before I post a dedicated thread for the board development back in custom hardware, things are going well. Sample chips are here, and the test PCBs and stencil are in manufacture and should arrive early next week. As well, all the components for the test boards are on the way and should all be here this week.
