Please verify that you own that Eligius address by signing it with your username and I will remove the neg Trust rating.

My name is enayem on eBay and i already had this account. Im happy to provide more pictures to confirm. This enayem guy on here stole my images which is why I included both my user names and todays date. Alright i will post it here. Regards

Picture of your username only & today's date would be good.
Verify your eligius as well.

Of course, none of this is necessary if you can escrow.  TomatoCage or SebJu ok?
If so, I'll buy a few.

I'm pretty sure what's happening to BTC prices is called 'maturity' by economists. Cheesy

If anyone does have contact with the other shareholders please get in touch with them.  I've been ready to close the deal since the vote has started.  I cannot wait much longer though.

Still on the Jupiter hunt?  You're relentless man!
I ended up keeping mine. Quite happy about it too.  Grin

Re: my mtgox account has been robbed this night.

I've got more than enough funds sitting in MtGox right now to begin pursuing them via legal action right now.  I am sick to my ****ing stomach because my gut is telling me that I am out an inexplicable amount of money.

Why I kept most of my funds in BTC, that's a question I'll be asking myself for a long, long time.

All I know, is that I am now ALL IN when it comes to pursuing these mother****ers through every single legal alleyway my lawyer will find.  I am currently trying to find a lawyer who specializes in virtual currency (in New York).  If anyone has a connection let me know.

I am not holding my breath thinking that they will magically find enough BTC to give customers theirs back.

I am of the belief that my Bitcoins are gone.

Private investigators, in my experience, are a 100% sure-fire way to waste money and valuable time when it comes to legal battles.  Most evidence they turn up is not permissible in the court-of-law, with that said, I am already trying to brainstorm my attack here.

I am sure I am not alone here, so if anyone wants to team-up and get the ball rolling, shoot me a PM.

Scummy mother****ers will go down.

EDIT: Sorry OP.  Might have hijacked here.
Maybe it was a legit hacker who took your BTC but I wouldn't put it past the OPs of MtGox siphoning their own users money under the table.

Is that the only thing that was done?  The FBI online report?
If I recall correctly, they don't tend to act on those reports, merely file them away and use them in statistics.

Don't.

That's my tip.
Use Craigslist, or find an escrow agent that you trust and sell here.

Avoid Paypal like the plague when it comes to wheeling-and-dealing Bitcoins or miners.

Re: Vod is a raging troll, Dont trust him.

All good, U_L.
Gotta realize that while it's OK to have personal issues, when they are surfaced in an online forum (like this one), they can be misinterpreted as falsifying information, a big no-no.

Anonymity is certainly a core component of Bitcoin and I don't blame you for adhering to this.

Vod & you might have some issues to work out, but ultimately I think this just boils down to letting bygones be bygones.  This is the internet and you two will never meet.  Vod has some reason for being skeptical and you have some reason for being angry at this skepticism.  The burden of truth always falls on the one not telling the truth though, and here, gender-issues notwithstanding, you didn't tell the truth so the burden of resolution falls on you.

I emplore you to make amends with Vod and move on.  I give you due respect for not simply abandoning your account.

Take care.

Oy.

Again with the scamming stuff.
In regards to power consumption, it's approx 1.4kW.  I don't know why or where I stated 1.1... that would be outrageously low (in the wave of PMs and emails, I might've slipped up there though, woudn't surprise me, apologies).

Eligius hash page shows 630/610, KnC portal shows substantially higher rates.  Not sure what else to say about that.  Maybe I haven't set my pools up properly?

If you think I'm scamming, don't bid and use escrow.  That's why escrow is an option.

if these are novembers how come they're hashing at 610 & 630??

I haven't OC'd them.  They're at stock.
Taking all last calls now.  Send any offers, tomorrow afternoon I'm either sending them or inviting someone over to my place.

Thanks for all the interest peeps.

You know, I guess that's what you get for being greedy....I offered this guy and had multiple conversations with him over the last two weeks about picking up one of these since I am local and live about an hour away. I was led on to believe he was going to sell, and came up with random excuses not to. I believe  now he was waiting to sell after the last diff change to maximize his profits.


Good luck in  your sales venture, you could have sold one for your asking price a week ago....your loss, my gain (in not wasting good money for 0 ROI)

You missed the boat buddy, You'll be lucky if you get 4 BTC for these now.

Guess ill just wait for my Neptune to arrive.

Karma is a bitch.

Let bygones be bygones.  I haven't heard from you except in this thread since I put them up again.

To be honest you guys, I am shocked at the perceived value of these.  Not to say you guys are wrong, based on the interest, I would say the value of the Jups have taken a massive hit since diff change (as expected).  But 6 BTC is outrageous.

You will make that in 1.5 months hashing.  I am looking for a fair deal here, but I am not going to be low-balled.  Wink

I was ready willing and able to come by (an hour away) offer still available?

PM me.  I first come first serve, not holding for peeps.
For the record, IIRC wasn't it like 11pm/midnight when you wanted to check them out?

I prefer daytime transactions for obvious reasons.

Considering letting go my two Jupiters.

Might do a small package deal.

Escrow is a discussion I am open to having with people.
Not sure what more information you guys can want here.

PM for pics and what not.  I will be at work tomorrow and can't check the boards, but if you send me an email I'll be able to check that, just make sure you tell me your username here or I won't reply.   Wink  (Can be found on my profile).  I probably won't be replying much tonight cause it's already late here.

Dropped it to 1.65 BTC. Think that's probably more reasonable including shipping costs and packaging.

Yes sir, I do believe that is more reasonable.  Smiley

Yeah, 2.2 does seem high... but if you find a buyer, good on ya!

I saw a 200GH/s Redhash unit go for about the price recently on Craigslist of all places.

About 20 to 25 BTC might also suffice for loan.

In the previous post you state "please elaborate on this LTC".
Then in your sig you state you accept all cryptocurrencies.

So you're conceding that you don't know what LTC is?

Nobody give this guy anything unless he coughs up 105% in alt-coin collateral.  This one is close to the top of my "Fishy ****" chart.

EDIT:
"wondering what my options are"
Here are some

Give the person who is offering you a loan the following:
Enough alt-coin to cover the loan if you happened to not pay.
Send the loaner an item valued at the loan amount.  If you don't want to do this, use an escrow agent.
Provide the loaner with documents that verify who you are that can be cross-referenced.

If you cannot do this, then you cannot have a loan.
Plain & simple.
