Just buy the antminers direct from bitmaintech. They're at 0.998 BTC/unit at the moment. Free shipping international. Just need to pay the import duties.
I got 2 last week
The question is, will it pay itself with all the VAT,PSU,fees that makes it cost even more?

Where do these people keep coming from?!  There is so much good information on this forum especially the Custom Hardware forum.  No one should be making such horrible decisions.  Ugh!

These Terraminers seem like a huge waste of money.  They are charging the same price for each batch while the difficulty keeps going up. Is it even possible to break even on these anymore? 

They should be lowering the price each batch to take in account the difficulty increase.

I see they are still advertising 2TH... They had quite a bit of controversy earlier when they shipped machines that only did 1.6 to 1.7 TH/s and advertised them as 2TH.  Do you know if they found a way to tweak them out to 2Th now or ?

I believe they are still running under 2TH with more power consumption than advertised.
I'm just hoping later batches are a little more tweaked.

You failed with that preorder. June? You can get 1TH unit in march with that.

1TH 900w delivered now. Also asiabtc sells same miners.

hark antminers are 1.11BTC so they are under $700 at current pricing.  The CT shitboxes are hashing way lower than the rating and using way more power.  Do yourself a favor and cancel it.  You will be earning BTC way sooner and keep your money out of the pocket of a Co. that is screwing over it's customers instead of delivering on time as promised hardware.

The CT machines use more power than they were supposed to but they're more efficient than antminers.  It's mostly the huge lead time that's a problem, people with hardware in hand aren't really better off buying antminers though.  Also not every data center is antminer friendly.

I'm going to be buying antminers until they're coming out of my funking ears!


I pretty much am.
It's getting so bad that I'm running out of power capacity again.

I think I have a problem.
Is there such a thing as Antminer Anonymous?

Insane to have done this man you understand how high the difficulty will be in June that is crazy!! Dont understand why so many people put so much money into Pre orders! How many 700$ antminer S1 miners you could of got and had in your house mining in 7 days from now.  You could of been running 2 th/s in antminers and mine untill June !!  Who cares if its going to run at twice the power usage. Would he like 4000 watts mining now rather then 2000 watts mining in June .. Maybe cost you a little more upfront for the 12 antminers but your up and running 7 days later !! June is just way to far away .....

Maybe I didn't look hard enough. Where can I get antminer S1 for $700? All I see is arount $1000 for 170GH. That's way too much compare to Terraminer 4. Pre-order sucks. But I felt there is no other way...
Plus Terraminer is complete product. PSU is built in, so no messy wires everywhere.

S1's right now.  When the S2's are out I imagine I'll be swapping out 1's on the eBaY exchange program.  I'm only interested in what exists today.

These BS 'order something that may or may not exist in xx months' guys can blow me.  They will never see a penny or a .0000000000000001 of my BTC!!!


Are you talking about the "S2" that was mentioned or something else?
