Well, the Ebay one went for $202 or about BTC1.6.  I'm really curious as to why the buyer paid that much for it - but I guess I'll never know.

Sure, it's possible that the buyer has some other use for the miner, or the chips within it - but I do wonder whether these things just get bid up by clueless newbies who think it will make them rich and have no understanding of the economics of mining.

I'm not holding my breath, but if anyone wants to sell me a working Single for BTC0.5 (or £40 cash) plus shipping, do let me know.  Even better if you're in London and we can do the trade in person.

Week ago i was sold my 3 singles for 0.27 BTC each.I think that this is fair price for seller and for buyer.
I also sold 3 Lanselot-s for 0.14 BTC each.

I've never seen one of these sell for less than BTC4.  What is the cheapest one has ever sold for?

Well, there's one on E-bay that's currently been bid up to $102.50 but I thought even that was a little overpriced.  Will be interesting to see what it goes for in the end.

Interesting indeed.  Although that doesn't come with a power supply.  I wonder what BFL did with all of their trade-in units.

You can power it off an ATX PSU with the right cables.... it's what many people did (although I ran mine with the supplied brick).

Sorry, I can't imagine paying a whole lot more than BTC0.5 plus shipping for something which, for me, would be essentially little more than a paperweight, albeit a cool paperweight with nostagia value.  If they're really worth that much to other people I guess I'll do without.  Or wait for the prices to drop.

Thanks for the offer though.

To me diamonds are paperweights, but I doubt anyone will be giving me them at paperweight prices anytime soon.  I've never seen one of these sell for less than BTC4.  What is the cheapest one has ever sold for?

I have one I'd part ways with for BTC4.  Not really looking to sell, but that's what I'd take.

I, too, would like to get hold of a working FPGA Single for nostalgia's sake.   Anyone got one for sale?  How much do they generally change hands for for?

I got ztex 1,15
Sorry only interested in the BFL fpga.

I have one lonely FPGA single left from last years trade-in.  I would imagine shipping it from the US would be a killer though.  Any thoughts?
I have sent you a pm.

I am interested in a Fpga single. The unit has to be in good working condition Smiley
I am trying to collect some bitcoin relics.
Postage will have to be to Australia and we will be using some body for escrow.

Please pm me with offers or post bellow. I am only really interested in one but if the price is right I will buy more than one.
