+1 for 20, sounds reasonable

Each unit is 10gh/s, and people are bidding roughly 5 btc per unit, did I get that right?

10gh/s, but the current max bid is 25BTC. The @ is a per-unit price. You'd currently have to bid more than 17 to have a chance, and there's only 1 unit available below 20BTC.

You beat me to it, but I'll add another angle.. I wonder whether it will be profitable long-term?

I am currently GPU pool mining at a total of ~1500MH. This produces slightly less than 0.1BTC/24h at present difficulty. With all those ASICs going on, difficulty will likely skyrocket, so the big question is, what the difficulty will be in a month?

I was thinking 20 as well, but the minimun to get one is currently 16, so I don't know how likely that is.

The hard part for those of us newer to Bitcoin is that they only accept BTC as payment, and you have to pay in 48 hours.  Most exchanges don't work that fast.

Yeah, I'm currently trying to find the most cost effective way of converting cash to bitcoin. I've been waiting for my exchange verification for a week now and looking at my place in the queue I think it will be a few more days before that goes through. Finding locals selling bitcoins seems to be the best way I've found so far.

With the current exchange rate and the fact that they are shipping now i think 20 is pretty reasonable

The latest Avalon batch went at ~100BTC for 85GH/s; the latest ASICMINER batch did around ~75BTC for 10GH/s. That's quite a hefty fee to pay for the instant delivery.

I wish I had BTC to bid.

If you have $$$ that shouldn't be a problem  Grin

If the final bids sit around 20 I'm thinking of picking one up. I ordered a 30 GH/s rig from BFL in March, but I don't think I'll get that for months.

First one ended April 16th and you got it for 75. This one is expecting lower, I'm thinking to go in for around 25max.

my calculation says 20 makes sense.. but i guess they will go far higher.. something like 70..
