Not sold out, but VERY slow on shipping.
Good thing I'm still on high summer electric rate for another month or so or I'd be actively ticked off.
Looks like second hand S5s sold out. Waiting for some news from Bitmain.  Cool
nope not sold out yet still green here as of this posting.

It did sold out, when Rabinovich first posted. Now its green again but it appear to be a different batch (of batch 7). The previous one said august 5, this one says "Shipping starts from August 14th after receiving full payment". This is probably why QuintLeo find it slow on shipping.

I would like confirmation, did the latest S5 firmware fix the chip not going idle when the S5 lose internet connection? The fan would power down but not the chips.

Wondering if i should order those bimetal thermal thing or not.

It did but for some it had other side affects like hashing cut in half. or speed dropping to 900 GH .

The entire problem seems to be hit or miss.  I have had an S5 since batch 1.  

I have lost internet before to the unit and did not get this problem.   But others obviously did. I wish we could see what the differences are.  

That sound troublesome. These second hands are from Batch 7, it makes me wonder what bugs i'm going to get. =/
