wow, long thread, wont lie skipped to the end- so where is the best price on a 1th/s miner kinda interested

These guys have them for sale right now, and the price definitely right!

Plus they have excellent customer support from my experience buying gear from them:

http://www.gawminers.com/gaw-miners-1t-bitcoin-asic-miner/

7.4 BTC for a device that might mine less than 5.3 in the next 100 days if every diff change for the next 100 days is only 15% ...

No wonder hardware vendors can do so well, people like losing BTC ... ... ... ...

Well the batch 1 S2 in today's coin value is approx. 10 BTC
So are you saying one is better that the other? Or just a general statement in lack of ROI on miners in general?

Not sure why it is difficult to see ... but ... I replied to your comment ... that's why I quoted your comment ..........
The relevant part of your comment was

the price definitely right!

No idea who you think it is right for at gaw, but clearly it is right for gaw, not miners.

In fact I cannot even understand the reason for your post.
Do you have something to gain for gaw's sales?
or do you simply have no idea how bitcoin difficulty works, the recent history of it and the known up coming mining devices due now and soon?

You are misunderstanding what I am saying. I don't care who it's right for or not, all I know is people are simply looking to get 1TH/s miners, and they will continue to look for and purchase them, wherever they can get one, just like I did.

I bought an S2 for full price on batch 1, even batch 2 is still pretty expensive, all I was saying is that from my experience buying scrypt mining gear from GAW, I know that they are a reliable company....and if you took a second to realize that what I was referring to was the comparison in price from the S2's batch 1 and 2 to what their price is currently for a 1TH/s miner, you would realize when I say "the price definitely right!" I am talking about if you were looking at the current available options for 1TH/s miners that you could buy today not in 5 months. Plus if you actually took the time to read the posts you would have seen that I was simply answering someone question of "so where is the best price on a 1th/s miner kinda interested" so don't assume things unless you take the time to read up on previous posts.

You mentioned "do you simply have no idea how bitcoin difficulty works, the recent history of it and the known up coming mining devices due now and soon?" of course I do, and of course there will always be bigger and better things down the pipe, but I was referring to what is available now if you were in the market for a 1TH/s miner..that's all.

As far as your accusation "Do you have something to gain for gaw's sales?" the answer is no I do not. I am not employed by them, but am simply a satisfied customer, and enjoy the fact that if I have to call them for any issue someone always picks up the phone or answers my emails...basically I am just a loyal customer who likes the way they do business, and to tell you the truth if they had the 1TH/s miner up on their website before the S2, I would have purchased one from them simply for the fact that I know from experience that if I had a problem they would go out of their way to help me out however they could. Unlike the disaster going on here.

So sue me for giving someone a basic answer to a basic question...It seems as you are the one who has a problem with these miners being sold, but to tell you the truth, I don't care. No one is forcing you to buy one

People want what they want and are going to buy it whether it makes them an ROI or not, some people just like having fun stuff to play with and makes them happy to be a part of something...how do you rate the ROI on that?

Have a good day!
