Bump.

New pricing of $30k each, you pay shipping. Further reduction in price if you purchase multiple.

725 BTC

Asking price updated and converted to BTC.

Pmed. 

I bid $76,000

Price reduction to $125k.

OP edited.

Hi Hiroaki,

I've paid everyone who has claimed. Maybe you should do your homework before you decide my fate.

Best,
James

I guess the FBI is already investigating...

My single biggest reason for pricing a MR500 today at $150K is that this rig
cost $30K/3 = $10K each back when BTC was about $10. This 500GH mini
rig cost 1,000 BTC.

Past Opportunity Cost
=====================================================
To truly be made whole from an opportunity cost standpoint, a JUN/12
1.5TH/s mini rig purchaser would need to recover 1,000 BTC equivalent
for each 500GH/s mini rig. At today's prices those 1,000 BTC would be
$110K.

Future Opportunity Cost
=====================================================
Now a 500GH/s mini rig purchaser needs to decide whether there is a
future opportunity cost they may be giving up by selling their rig. Who
knows? Maybe a number of good things all happen coincidentally? What if
BTC goes to $500 each? What if Avalon drops the ball? What if KNC is
late by 6 months? What if? What if? What if?

Giving up the mini rig means giving up a future of being able to mine BTC
effectively (or at least better than the majority of the rest of the miners).
If BTC went to $ 5,000 each and mini rig still could mine 0.1 BTC/day, it
would continue to be a windfall.

To me, that means Giga wants to recover his past opportunity cost and
give some allowance to lost future opportunity cost. To him, that represents
fair. If someone wishes to relieve Giga of his past + future opportunity and
absorb that risk themselves, then someone will click the BUY IT NOW button.

Disclaimer: I have a mini rig pre-order myself though much further down the
time line. I am a geek engineer that would need a LOT of persuasion to give
up the opportunity to hash at 1.5TH/s.

Edit: By the way, these are just my opinions. I do not speak for Giga in any
       way. Further, I do not mean this as some sort of lecture. It was just a
       possible definition of "fair value" from a seller's perspective.

Here are a few reasons.

1. power efficiency long term
2. risk of delay
3. resale value the day avalon clones come online should be at least 45k

Questions?

Hi!

I made the following calculation:

6 Avalon Clones at 85 GH/s each -> >500 GH/s
6 Avalon Clones at a price of 7.5 k USD -> 45 k USD
Delivery end of August ... meaning roughly 70 days ...

Mining with 500 GH/s at difficulty of 45 M weighted (currently 19 M + continuous raises until end of August) will get you:
This would be 70 * 5.59  = 391.30 BTC (or 43358.70 USD)

Original price (32 k USD / 3 = 10,66 K USD - because it is not 1.5 TH/s it is only one of three machines) + mining until end of August -> 43369.36 USD

Everything around 50 k USD would reflect a fair price IMHO ... paying more than that is probably ripping of Newbie's.

Sooo ... where did I go so wrong with my math? The 150 k USD price tag must be a fair price .... or not? 

All the best!

Oh allright you talked me into it. $12000 - That's the original purchase price + a 20% tip.

Try again.   

$75,000

What's the power draw on a MR 500GH? Will it plug into a 10amp wall point? or does it need 16amps?

Cheers,
QG

Glad to see your adding insightful and enlightening information to the discussion. 

Giga,

Congrats on getting your first ASIC mini rig! It is truly a beautiful sight to see!

my gosh this community is full of a bunch of greedy fucks... disgusting.

Oh well, thats how bitcoin works... backed by greed =)
