scalpers are worthless scum who don't deserve to breath.

... errr sorry

i mean ...

nice business model !

only looking for genuine sellers please, not scalpers, rapists, pedophiles, lawyers or real estate salesmen.

Call them what you will, but those expecting Bitmain prices should wait 8-12 weeks and factor in difficulty increases(opportunity cost), international shipping costs, taxes/duty, wire/btc transfer charges, second shipping to final owner.

S9's generate 0.0026 BTC at todays difficulty. That's $31 a day @ 11850/BTC. Waiting for Bitmain will cost you 12 weeks * 7 days * $31 = $2588 assuming constant BTC price and difficulty.
If a miner costs $1400 on Bitmain, it is $1700 to get in in hand on avg. Add $2588 opportunity cost for 12 weeks and you arrive at $4288.

$3500 in-hand in 3 business days is almost an $800 discount all things considered.
