Sent you a pm on reflection.

I'm just gonna keep it, its broken and ugly and needs a complete rebuild.

The problem with bitseed is they are going under. Also in the 3 years

I've had mine, it has choked 3x. This 3rd time no reply from bitseed. So I assume if you did take my

unit, you'd just be getting the box/1gb sd and a Raspberry Pi 2 (I think it was).

Thus, you would have to re-build anyway and the only thing you'd be paying for is the parts/box.

Hardly worth it.

So don't want to stick someone with this (now unworking and needs rebuild) or later (when they go under and not supported)

Anyway, pm me if you want to build a unit with a pi and SD card etc.

But with my unit, at this point in time, it probably stay my clusterf*** project, and I should fix it myself and just use it again.

A build should easily cost under $100 with a fancy case and everything, IMHO.

later

Still looking for a Bitseed v1... if you have one for sale, pls PM

Thanks

I've got one. It needs to be updated and probably re-worked. I contacted them for help but has been a no go so far.

What do you want to pay for this puppy?

Original price for me in USD was $135 with shipping I believe back in the day. I do have the replacement 1gb SD version drive at least, maybe a 2gb? But 1gb for sure.

I did do a web site backup of their site and recommend you get HTTRACK web site copier (freeware) and grab the site and their files. They are going under

they said. I got one here someplace but would be better for you to be pro-active and grab your own copy.

Hell, I probably should not even sell this. We probably should just get together and re-work my unit and/or you just

build a unit from scratch. Thus, figure out how to keep up a node completely by ourselves for the next time they hic-up.

Which, seems to happen 1x a year.

Again, a person, even with a Bitseed, should probably just go online and re-build according to how you set up with whatever

particular Raspberry Pi and whatever is needed, just to stay ahead of the process and learn how to be more pro-active on this stuff

when things go sideways on the Pi and the node. Again, which happens. Price would likely be the same, and as I state, I assume

mine needs (and probably everyone else's at this point) needs a complete re-build of some kind at this point in time.

For all I know getting the new Raspberry Pi and just re-build may be the NEW way to do this with nodes at this point in time.

Anyway, contact me here or pm on above in whatever you wish to do. Build one, buy mine, work on building 2 between us that match...

etc, etc.

More stuff to do. sigh. Sad

Cool, PMing you now
