Hi All,

I had purchased both of the units from Jae. I just wanted to post the I have received the units and the both work well. I know this thread left a sour taste in a couple people's mouth about how it happened but I wanted to say the transaction was sucessful.

Cheers

I was the one who showed a high level of interested in the items via this thread.  The OP PMs me and says you can have them 15btc each Buy It Now.  I PM'd him right away i'll buy one right now.   he takes 25 minutes to get back to me then says sorry sold.

I passed on the other auction planning to catch this one.  The OP said nothing about ending early.

Sad

I had multiple requests. I quoted everyone the same price to be fair. Some wanted escrow, which was fine but the first to start the transaction had dibs. Believe me there was much more interest than I anticipated. If my others are returned, I will reach out to those that PM'd to see if they are still interested.

Thanks for understanding.

reason for selling jae?

Similar to twmz's reason. I actually already sent 2 for trade-in and they are sitting in customs now. These are my last two units up for auction as I don't want to deal with future trade-in's

Inspired by: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-2x-icarus-fpga-miners-mine-with-them-or-trade-in-for-avalon-179800 and shamelessly stolen, however I waited until his published auction ending before I posted this.

I also have two, fully functional Icarus FPGA miners that are available in this auction.

The winner might choose to mine with these or the winner might choose to trade them in for priority access to Avalon Batch #2 (see below for details).  Note, I do not guarantee anything with respect to the Avalon Trade-in process.  The buyer takes on all risk associated with that trade-in process.

These will be shipped from Texas in the US.  I will cover the costs of standard shipping (UPS ground or equivalent) within the U.S.  I will also ship internationally via the US Postal Service for $50 (in BTC based on the exchange rate at the time of payment).  If the winner would prefer a particular expedited shipping method, I am willing to do that with the winner paying the actual cost of shipping.

The rules for the auction are as follows:

Each bid must indicate a price you are willing to pay per unit and how many units you want to buy (just 1 or both of them)
Bid must be in increments of at least 0.1 BTC
If you are bidding on both units are are only willing to win them as a pair and not an individual unit, say so explicitly.
The auction ends at 4/21/13 02:00 UTC (based on the forum's time/clock).  That is 9pm Central Time in the U.S, tomorrow night or approximately 24 hours from when this topic was posted.

Any bid in the last 15 minutes of the auction automatically extends the auction by 15 minutes.
The minimum starting bid is 5.0 BTC

Recommended bid styles:

"I bid 5 BTC for 1 unit"

"I bid 5.1 BTC each for both units"

I reserve the right to cancel the auction if necessary for reasonable cause.  If I do so, all bids are
cancelled.  I'm reserving this right simply because this is the first time I've done an auction like this,
and want an escape hatch just in case I've missed something critical.  (language stolen from casascius' auctions)
