I have NO idea why people are buying batch 8, even with an overclock the units wont even return 50%.

In August 19 you posted this...

Anybody interested in purchasing an S3?  I have a few extras.  I can do 0.7 btc including shipping. Send me a pm if interested.  Can ship as soon as tomorrow. Discounts if interested in more than 1.

You must be a real stand-up fellow to try to stop people from buying at .58 while you try to sell at .7

I know... 30 day difficulty, blah blah blah. But for .12 LESS they stand a lot better chance at breaking even.

Pick a side and stick with it already.

S3 makes ~0.01 BTC/day. Today is aug 21, batch 8 is shipping by sept 20, about 30 days later. Even with 20% diff rises, the miner shipped today will make at least 0.2BTC before batch 8 ships, making 0.7BTc offer TODAY a relative bargain.

But that leaves the .7BTC buyer still behind by .5BTC (.2BTC earned), which JPChrist has 'proven' will still not break even. Yet he peddles his S3's which will not ROI while shouting that the rest of us are fools for buying the S3+ with better specs for about the same loss as he is offering.
