Topic: [lee group]1150$! The group buy of hosted bitmain S7 @4.73T online on 27th Jan!! - page 2. (Read 32915 times)

So you finally realize what everybody repeatedly said for months? As far as i know, nobody heard anything about Lee for a long time now. Except invoices of course. Unfortunately, you will have to acclimatize with the fact these miners wont be shipped to you. I hope they will!

Anyone in contact with Lee? I don't get reply to e-mail and Lee is not active here for more than month. My 3 S7s are slowly going into mining with loss and I can't change that?!?!

Lee, please answer at least two days before asking for next maintenance fee so we can make our choice. Thx.

EDIT: Buyback price is also option.

Lee, do You have possibility to lower maintenance price for S7s? If not, after halving looks like it's unprofitable mining at Your farm. Please also state lowest shipping price for US and EU You can reach so We can make decision what to do with S7s. Thank You in advance.

Lee,
For the first time since the beginning I haven't received maintenance fee e-mail from You on time. Waiting patiently to pay for maintenance.
BTW, what is the buyback price for S7 now?

EDIT:
I got the mail seconds after posting... 

I got my 2 S-5 Units back from Li a couple of weeks ago.  Just sold them locally.  Seeing the shape these showed up in (dirty, dusty, etc), it's no wonder there are issues.

Bombay claims receiving 0.04BTC. He claims Lee accepted 110h downtime. Compensation price derived from upper calculation is not real compensation price. Upper compensation price is per TH, not per S7. Lee was very precise in math before, such a big error is not his style.

Ok.

95.5 hrs down time for each machine after 14.5 hrs deducation)  * 0.00010093 (Per hr compensation)  = 0.009638815  (Per machine) * 4 (For 4 S7)  = 0.03855526 BTC as compensation for 4 machines.


So in short Bombay received 0.03855526 as compensation ( $14)  for 4 S7 down time ( 110-14.5=95.5) . During those hrs bombay got paid more than $49 as maintenance fee .



 

 

Something is very wrong with Your math. Starting with 110-14.5=95.5 and finishing with missing calculation for maintenance per hour price.
I admit that Lee's maintenance price is around 15-20% higher than Hashnest maintenance price, but it's the price having real physical S7 instead of virtual one.

He will get back to you. I may be one of a few but I had a fairly ran hosting for the last few months. It may take some time to get replies via email but he always got back to me and compensated for my down time which was minimal over the course of hosting. 

The difficulty increase in 2016 was not his fault and the Bitmain price drop after initiating the group buy wasn't either which were two tough starting factors I don't think pcfli can be blamed totally for. Thanks for running an honest host pcfli!

well according to earlier post of DC overload, it sounds like half the DC'S S7's could be fried ;\
hence some are getting fine hash and others having your scenario.
it was a great group buy, but mining went insane last 4 months+ , and Li, tho a great guy, mismanaged it into a hole ;\
cut your losses, this is the risk of mining, sell while you can , S9 will HOPEFULLY be soon. (tho BMT's shody machines are not meant for the conditions these were in they are seriously cheap chinese crap)

~Lesson Learned~

On F2Pool You would have stable >28TH and merge mine NMC, HUC and SYS coins. I forgot when I did last request for downtime. Couple of months ago?

MY 6 S7  giving me 8TH..........it is Joke.

I sold back to pcfli at 0.95 btc / S7 to safe my precious time.

Mind if I ask if you sold back to pcfli, or another buyer?

I am out, happy to be able to focus on more productive stuff now.

s7a is a 4.66 others are 4.73, didn't take records before Mar 03 and i stopped taking record aftrer May 17 as i'm too tired with this hosting.
i claimed downtime that's why i rec'd compensation of total 3.0926 (included the 1.6688 rec'd on Jan 30 for online delay)

EDIT: network engineer is not a coder, network engineer always troubleshoot with span port and packet analyzer doesn't mean he is capable in developing a protocol suite by himself

Did You claimed Your downtime?

EDIT: Because You know so much I'm interested in technology of distributed mining - does pools that have more access nodes do have separate wallets or they just proxy from access nodes to one point?

People say China miners must mine at China pool and this is not true, GFW increase latency not blocking any well known bitcoin ports e.g. 3333, 8333, 9332, 9333 etc.
People (indeed li said) i mine at pools outside China causing problems and this is not true at all, i'm connecting Slush pool via their CN node that is 100% China pool.
I'm a CxIE with 20xxx number I know internet well, you people always been misled by the Chinese, GFW is simply a hardware firewall with deep packet inspection functionality that's all.

Simply not true. That's why You are receiving e-mail to claim YOUR miner downtime. But miner, not pools. You did bad choice of pools regarding geo-position of miner. It's Your choice.
BTW, never enough money. That's why I'm not considering myself as moneywise rich.
