Is that serious? How do you get those cheap prices? If I build up a rig with say 3 x 280x gpus that have around 3 x 710 KHash/s = 2130 KHash/s I have to pay at least:

100$ Motherboard
3x 500$ 280X GPU
25$ Ram
3 x 30$ Riser Cables
230$ 1000 Watt PSU
----------
Total: 1945 $

 That would effectively be 1945/2130 $/(KHash/s) =  0.9131 $ /(KHash/s). The power consumption of this rig with 3x 280x would be 3*250 W + 100W = 850W (GPUS + Mobo). I live in germany and have to pay at least 25 $/KWh that would mean i would have to pay for this rigs electricity 0.25*0.85*24*31$ = 126.48 $ per month. Effectively this would be a total of 126.48/2130 $/(KHash/s) =0.05938 $/(KHash/s) per month which is nearly double the electricity cost of 0.04$ which you charge.
This would mean for my rig I would have to pay a total of 0.9131 + 12* 0.059 = 1.6211 $/(Khash/s) for one year mining. Compared to your contract that effectively costs 0.99+ 12* 0.04 = 1.47 $/(KHash/s) for one year mining! This is much cheaper plus I don't have to maintain the rig and worry about cooling and noise!

Are my number wrong or is that a pretty damn good offer?

Your numbers are very correct only that their offer is imaginary. This is too good to be true. In this way they attract the naive people, with the idea to get rich with minimum effort.
