The guy who took the SP10 decided he wanted Antminers as well.  He's got precedence.  If it falls through I will be in touch though. Smiley

how much is S3?

Sorry for the delay in replying.

I'd ask about $40 not including actual shipping.

SP10 is no longer available.

The 750W PSU also sold.

Are you using PSE for electric?

Yep, Puget Sound Energy.

I may be able to make it proftable by cutting the ASICminer blades out.  But I'd really rather not deal with the coming summer heat to be honest.

R-T-B's "Getting out of mining" sale, 3TH in mining hardware in Olympia, WA

I have approximately 3TH in mining hardware here in Olympia, Washington, United States.

I'm looking to get out of mining as our electric bill here is tiered and doesn't justify even S3's anymore.

Here's what I got:

Miners

1x SP10 SpondooliesTech @1.48TH  --SOLD

2x Antminer S3+'s, all overclock very nicely.  Wireless antennas added.

3x ASICminer "Tube" blades, about 250GH each.  Need custom cooling or a fan.  Once had a Rockminer T1 chasis but it's fans burned up.

3x Good Delta Electronics High airflow blowers I'll throw in with any order that asks.

PSUs

NOTE:  These PSU's have damaged mobo connectors for PC usage from using too thick of wire to jump them.  They should be used with miners only, not PCs, and their warranty is certainly void.

2x Rosewill Fortress 550W Platinum Rated non-modular PSU

1x Rosewill Fortress 750W Platinum Rated non-modular PSU. --SOLD

No price in mind, this is purely "best offer."  Shoot me an offer and I'll consider it, if I like it I'll take you up on it.  No offer will be insulting, so go ahead and give it a try.  Yes, I will part the sets of hardware out, especially if you pay for the shipping label (I really don't want to muck with that, but I AM a competent packer).

I accept paypal, and bitcoin, but honestly prefer Paypal.  I'm willing to do this as an ebay transaction for buyer protection.

Pictures of my setup from back when it was profitable. The SP10 is vertically mounted in the back Smiley

Same boat here actually...  I want to get a heatsink for my gaming rig at home from newegg, and I have a $5 off coupon that just makes it stretch to doable that expires tonight at midnight PST...  All I need is 0.01 bitcoin too, lol...

i use the nepton 140XL for one of  my gaming rigs.. the other one has a frio extreme..



Was looking at a Noctua NH-U14S myself, it's ideal for tall ram stack Socket LGA2011 systems...

but we're off topic now lol.

Yes, still no payout here either...

Currently the farm has a client.  It won't be reopen to potential leasing until the end of the current month.

Thanks for some interest though, it's always appreciated. Smiley

Heck, if you knew the price of any stock as little as one day in the future, you could be a millionaire pretty much overnight.  Again, nothing to get worked up about.  Everyone misses boats.  No biggie, just keep trying your hand at new things and one day it'll work out.

One last bump before I take them all and just continue mining on my own.  I'm open to best offers.

Oh, almost forgot to mention all miners come with Platinum PSUs if you're making a buy offer.

Minus of course the SP10.  It's integrated PSU is gold rated though.

I would offer 2BTC for the Sp10 + s3s.

Thanks for the offer.  I will keep this one on the table, but I'd like to investigate my options first.

How much for all of it then? If it helps make a deal I would take the Rockminer too I guess.

Eh, honestly I'll throw in the Rockminer if you want but lets be honest with each other:  It's an old process node and not that great of a chip, thus it isn't worth too much, lol.  Probably not even worth it's shipping weight if I have to pay, kinda a heavy unit for what it makes.

As I said, I'm prefering a rental, but I'd sell the whole lot right now for probably...  say 4BTC?  I really want about $800 at the end of the day for the lot and honestly that may be too much.  Shipping costs are tricky too...  I can't drop much lower though, so you be the judge.

If you did buy them at that rate, I'd throw in a few months of hosting too, given I have dirt cheap electric.  They'd still be yours and boxed up at the end on request, naturally.

The rent would be for a 3-12 month contract, your call.  I'm thinking a price of about $150 a month.  I pay cheap prices for electricty and you are taking on the risk paying upfront, so it seems fair to me.
Your $150 per month rate would be appropriate now, however as difficulty increases it will become less and less appropriate.

Would you be willing to consider any longer term leases when the price per month declines each additional month by an agreed upon amount?

This is actually an excellent point I have not considered.  Bitcoin IMO, is going to see a difficulty decline soon and this is probably the least profitable we will see it.  But I could be wrong.  It could get worse.  And in the longterm one thing is for sure:  Diff rises.

I'm opening this to single month rentals with optional renewals either at the current rate, or a renegotiated rate.  I of course reserve the right to terminate at the end of the month if I feel I'd be doing better on my own, but you'd be given some kind of advance notice (I'm thinking at least 15 days ahead of time).  Renegotiated renewals would consider what is happening, for better or for worse.  If bitcoin is doing well however you'd probably want to opt to keep your current rate. Wink

Editing opening post to indicate such.

Oh, and thanks for the vouch AT101ET!  Great to see you here as well! Smiley

Do we have to pay electricity costs if we purchase? If so What is the combined wattage of the miners?
I am very interested Cheesy

Heh, no my prices include electricity.  I'm paying very cheap Washington hydro prices.  Honestly I should probably shut down the Rockminer T1 but I've underclocked it to reduce it's wattage and it's doing ok.

Whole thing draws a little under 2KW.  I don't make much on this rental tbh, I'm offering this more for the fun of keeping the stuff running and a little money on the side without the stress of watching bitcoin 24/7 for the next price jump. Wink

One thing everyone should know though:  This is a rural location with reasonably reliable electric (mostly underground wiring here), but it's still not battery/generator backed.  If electricity goes out though, I'll arrange a usage extension in the contract.

How often is there a power outage?

Thanks (:

We usually have a few hour electrical outage about once every 3-6 months, depending largely on weather.  It is obviously more common in the winter, less in the summertime.
