I'm not 100% sure that they're "dead". I'm almost positive that a deep dive into the hardware (on at least one) using the usb part controller would allow them to be reset. I just don't plan on spending the time to find out since I can't run them anymore. At $25 each it would cost more in shipping to get rid of them so it's not really worth it IMO. Either way If they sell, great. Worst that can happen is that someone says no. I appreciate the feedback though! Thanks.

asking 75 for a dead S3 with most likely a bad controller and if you have to replace the controller it will cost 35 from bitmain. So 75 turns into maybe 110. Pretty steep for a dead s3. To expensive for my blood but good luck on you sell. If you decide to come down 25 to per dead S3 hit me up.

I managed to run 2 miners for a month and saw my electric bill triple. I wasn’t surprised at all, but my wife was PISSED. So now I have to try to get something back on the equipment that I have. All equipment is being sold used / as-is. Due to the volatility of BTC there will be no refunds.

I'm in San Jose, CA. Local pickup is preferred if you're in the area, but otherwise terms are as follows:
Buyer must agree to cover:
- Purchase price (BTC)
- Shipping Costs (Anywhere in the U.S. - No Overseas shipping)
- Escrow charges (BTCrow)

Functional:
Antminer S5 (w/750W Power Supply) - $425
- Works very well
- Single (Original) fan has been replaced with two quiet 2300 rpm fans. Original fan will be included if you wish to restore to original configuration, but the push/pull config is SO much quieter.

Antminer S3 (w/600W Power Supply) - $225
- Works very well, No problems.


Non-Functional:
Antminer S3 (No Power Supply) - $75
- Unable to reset.
- Will not power up the ethernet port for configuration. Likely needs a deep dive into the internal workings to get the reset done.
- USB UART adapter will be included for you to figure out how to get it to reset. I just don’t have the time, patience, or a wife willing to tolerate it. Once it’s reset it SHOULD mine just fine.
- Has WiFi Antenna (included, but has not been installed).

Antminer S3 (No Power Supply) - $75
- Intermittently goes full speed on both fans for no apparent reason.
- Unable to get unit to reset
- Has WiFi Antenna installed.
