congrats on your business model ! this is what we want, IN STOCK !

Actually, while I love their design and the changes they made (very interesting)....

I am pretty sure what they are doing is selling off Avalon (modded) clones that they no longer want. I haven't yet read past the first page but that is what it looks like to me.

1) They had a mining farm.
2) They seem to be liquidating the mining farm for BTC. @ 15 BTC per machine

While not a terrible deal, the units are just about to become unprofitable.

So the question that pops into my mind is not how "do I buy it" (through their auction).

But...are there any plans to insert some Gen2 chips into their modded version and ship it to customers?

If they are indeed liquidating a farm, then they should be upfront about it. (Meaning these are all used)

Not possible ! Remember "TAV ordered 10,000 Avalon chips on April 21, 2013", which is late, check zefir's history, it's after batch #3...:
