I am simply trying to do business and you causing such a disturbance because you couldn't buy GPUs is silly. This thread is now CLOSED.
Dont see how i am making a disturbance, only saying what i think.
What is silly here, is your wording in private conversations after i pointed out that this does not add up.
As for your info, the 5 gpus we were talking about is not so much.
I got more than that delivered to me yesterday, shipped from another country whitout issues.
Thread closed, and i had a good laugh thank you for that!
The amount risked, is about the same i spend on coffee every 2. month.
Have a nice day, and no worrys!

Sorry to hear you spend ~$1300 on coffee every 2 months. Drink water, that stuff will kill you.

The price was actually you who offered m8.
On the shipping part, you chose to do dhl when i told you they deliverd within 48hours!
About shipping fees, again, it was you who was happy with me paying half of that.
I do have the entire log of conversation...
Like i said, no worrys for me, best of wishes in life for you and your "friend"!
Happy mining

I did not choose DHL, you did as they are the only ones capable of delivering to your country, express, and as you stated: "UPS does not deliver, FedEX is the same as the postal service." 

You said you were only capable of paying for HALF of the shipping I asked if you could do either full or half, you chose half.

I am in business with two individuals, Jay Tentoslides, and Kyle Forkey of Wellington, FL. We do AltCoin and Bitcoin mining in the FL area, those are my "friends. Please stop typing your replies in a passive aggressive manner, I am simply trying to do business and you causing such a disturbance because you couldn't buy GPUs is silly. This thread is now CLOSED.

Yeah, it sure is not safe to ship.
Good call... Roll Eyes
I have recieved alot of gpus, from several different sellers on this forum from several different countries.
None had any issues, not on shipping part or payment part.
For me, this doesnt add up.
If you really added it to amason, why did i not get a notice about it to have a chance of buying it there??
Nice done guys...
No worrys, be happy  Cool


I arose out of bed at 6:40am to reply to this message.

First let me say this, I am sorry that you could not purchase the GPUs from me. You offered me $40 less than we were willing to take, that the was FIRST negative.

Secondly, you wanted me to ship to you via DHL, assume all risk, pay half the shipping (to NORWAY), and only send payment once it arrives and you have verified they are working units.

We sold the units on Amazon for $300 per, BECAUSE the extra responsibility of shipping internationally and making LESS did not make good BUSINESS sense. Why would we notify you IF YOU ARE NOT IN THE US, WE CANNOT SHIP LOCALLY, AND YOU WOULD HAVE TO PAY EVEN MORE THAN WE BARGAINED

Sounds to me as if you have your panties in a bunch because you didn't get what you wanted. Stop being a childish adult and move on elsewhere, a discussion to sell is not a 100% confirmed transaction until money exchanges hands.

NO ONE, was thrown for a loop. NO MONEY was exchanged, do not make me appear to be some mysterious entity who backed out at the last moment.

HAVE A GREAT DAY

Decided to offload the lot of R9 290s and 290x's onto Amazon instead as we still had original packaging. You wished to pay 260, we got 300per after fees with Amazon -- much easier and less risk not having to DHL to Norway and we assume all risk. This sale is closed

Deal has been made for 5 gpus.
Seller agreed to ship first, i pay half of shipment upfront.
Sellers seems to be for real, will update when items arrives and working.
Will also leave seller trusted feedback, if all goes well!
Happy mining
*EDIT*
Seller has backed from deal because his "friend/partner" did not want to risk sending first.
Nothing is paid upfront on shipping part yet.
Will update if this changes.
Draw your own conclusions... Roll Eyes

I'll try to work out the prices...

Used Motherboard: $70 (Retail $77)
Used CPU: $40 (Retail $60)
Used 8GB RAM: $60 (Retail $65)
Hard Drive? No idea capacity, so I'll ballpark $30 for cheap, low capacity and used hard drive. (Cheapest retail 3.5" HDD on newegg is $42 for 160GB)
1300W PSU... Assuming Rosewill Lighting? Great PSU. Probably $150 used (Retail on sale about $170-$180)
Riser cables.. Value has gone down significantly, especially if ribbon and not USB. Lets say $5 for all of them
How many GPU per rig? 4? 5? Typical going price on ebay is less than $300 before fees, lets say $270 each. Heck, Newegg is selling 290s for $299 right now.

So 4 GPU rig = $1435
5 GPU rig = $1705

If everything was unused retail parts from a retailer, it'd come to around ~$2030 for 4 GPU, $2430 for 5 GPU. Just putting that out there.

There are 6 cards per rig. And yes Rosewill

SOLD ON AMAZON, NOT LONGER FOR SALE


First let me apologize for my "Newb Status". Been a lurker for many years, I spend more time on BlackcoinTalk. Regardless, I am selling 4 of our rigs spec'd accordingly. They are all packaged and ready to go already in static proof packaging and each individual components are all boxed up. You can purchase them separately or all together.

Cost me close to $3k a piece for these rigs at the time of purchase, looking for at least $2200 USD (BC/BTC Equiv) for each.

Specs:

R9 290x Graphics Card   
A88x - g43 Motherboard   
A6-5400k Processor   
Harddrive   
8 gb of Ram   
1300 watt PSU   
Riser Cables   


There are 4 in total. Rigs are in perfect working order.

Will accept payment in BC, BTC with the exchange price of your choosing (excluding LocalBitcoins).

We can facilitate this via Skype, FaceTime, whatever your choosing. We can work something out to ensure you feel as safe as possible with the transaction.
