Re: Avalon A7 announced

I started a group buy topic
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2147123.new#new

As I stated in it, I'm fairly new to the forums so I don't have to be the one to organize it completely, id actually rather someone more well known to help lol

I would run a group buy I have done them last feb 2016

but they were out of san fran- usa not hong kong -china

60 for 43000 + 2000 + 1500 = 46500

this is 775.

I am in NJ ,USA

reship would be 25 to 50 in usa

maybe 125 to europe

so
800-825 in the USA
900 in europe

I can build rasp pi's for 65

so do the math

825 usa no rasp pi
900 europe no rasp pi

890 with a rasp pi usa

965 with a rasp pi europe

those are break even numbers >

I am not a greedy pig and would not mark up like ebay

but I would want to earn some money as it is a lot of work.

we also run into btc price up price down issues.

I certainly won't be doing it until Sept 12th or later. I may write a thread in group buy section on tues the 5th once my aug 6 unit comes in.

Phillip if you are doing a group buy, send me a mail at steve@canaan.io

I will do something special for you and the guys here.

I need to check on some details, but hit me up

It seems the priority for Canaan will be on the big orders... So sad for all of us, who are waiting for weeks just for BTC address... For almost a week after the last batch, I have not seen even a single guy to post here, on FB or Twitter, that he has received payment details(BTC address). Not a single guy!

my august 6th order is due tomorrow.
my august 31st order does not have a btc address.

the group buy while it has attracted attention and has about 82 units or more has not reached the stage of exact pricing and it may never get off the ground.
my email talks with steve are moving along in the right direction but have not fully solidified.

I will see what happens with it but frankly it is really hard to buy gear for btc mining.

I'm sure everyone myself included appreciates the work you are putting in, who knows what will happen first. Half of us have orders in so maybe we get an address, or maybe they do what they did to you in August and jump a few people and try and get the 60 units sold. Either way thanks for trying to get us a 2nd option, in an industry that doesn't provide many. Personally I'm still rooting for my original order as I'm sure it will be a bit cheaper considering the reship from the US to Canada.
