I had some of the very first ones of these to hit the US back when they first came out. I can remember paying $200 each, and that was only because I bought 150 of them lol. For a short time they cranked out the highest income of any ASICs I've ever had, back when LTC was $30-40 and diff was 10k or so.
Good memories

I didn't think these ever got ROI because right when they came out BTC started to crash and the difficulty skyrocketed.
