Just wondering if miners still feel this card is worth putting money into this late in its life cycle. I am looking for opinions so let me know please.

You are not going to get any bites at this price. Selling on ebay for this price with a power supply included (or less).
Capital Recovery would be around 1.5 years assuming nothing changes between now and then. That's a big amount to swallow for that long of a period. Good luck on your sale.
Care to say how many of each card you have, hard to tell since not all included in picture...
Same question here, might be interested in a couple of 1070s for a reasonable price

I was bored. Free bump I guess for you? Someone else is selling these on the boards for 350 with shipping fyi. (Don't think they've sold yet either, hard sell with the current price of SIA and the cost to run these machines)
Imagine, if all the diggers were buying this kind of machine, soon the bitcoin would be exploited so fast that it would not be long before the bitcoin was gone, terrible
I was wondering as well but didnt want to waste my time asking?

I wish you luck on selling it but at the current difficulty/price it's hard to make money with these unless you have free power.
I had this same issue today, it wouldn't boot up off a USB stick but I ended up booting up off a USB DVD Drive. Pain but it worked. Will be adding GPUS this weekend.
Any help anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated. I can't get it to boot from USB, and it won't even recognize my SSD... no manual so I'm SOL.

Re: Where to sell Dragonmint T1, Dragonmint B29, and Dragonmint B52?

Not siding with either person but dust could easily be from them testing them before shipping. Resealed box could be customs or anyone along the shipping path checking the contents.
You will have to let us know if you actually take them to court, curious to the results. One of those he said, she said type arguments, how do you prove it either way?
I cant help but agree with Buck here but if the miner was new and unopened as the seller stated and the buyer opened the unit and ran it for 5 minutes then it is the buyers problem and buyer should open a ticket with Halong to have it replaced under warranty.
Both the B52 and B29 have to be calibrated out of the box before autotune can be enabled but there is a firmware bug that the miner never completes autotune and unless you manually change it to "Factory" the miner runs in "Performance Mode" and if you have it in a cooling deficient situation I have no doubt it could burn up but that's not the sellers fault.
The item was indeed used as i found dust inside and the box had been resealed

I had this issue with a used unit and it just ended up being a rough connection to the IO board. I actually swapped the connections around on the board and made sure they were tight and it worked 100% after that. Just something to try.
