OMG what is up with the bad luck.... Been mining for over 6 months on BTC Guild and have not seen any period of time like the last few weeks.... Am I wrong?
not unluck, just more difficult.
Just wanted to put it out there that I know the difference between luck and difficulty.

Re: [GROUP BUY 7 OPEN] Antminer 180GH @ 1.90 BTC - Chinese End of the Year Sale -
I'm afraid to even start mining.. It's running into the ASICs etc... What should I do?
Out of three miners one of mine looked like that. Its no big deal. With the unit unplugged a little rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab will easily remove the excess thermal compound. No noticeable impact to how well the machine works.

In the last two weeks or so I have had nothing but problems with Cryptsy. Trades disappearing. Balances on cancelled trades disappearing. Slow trades. Slow withdrawals. And on an on and on... I have opened a couple of tickets a day or more... The audit button is a joke. Does not work. I have gone from a very satisfied customer to ready to jump ship. I am not happy at all.

EDIT: The two blades are sold. I will sell the hub for BTC0.03 shipping included. For this price, with shipping included, I will only ship to US addresses.
I have spent way too much time trying to troubleshoot these broken items... 1) Block Erupter Blade V2 - does not flash led on boot, there appears to be something wrong with the 3.3v section of the board (take a look at this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=349105.new#new) 2) Block Erupter Blade V2 - boots but all chips show 'x's, I would be very surprised if all the BE chips are fried. I think this is another voltage problem. I just cant track down where. 3) Asicminer 49 Port hub - the fuse melted and I tried removing it and replacing it with no luck. When power is applied even when the fuse mount points are shorted it does not turn on. I tried removing the melted fuse holder and soldering the fuse to the board with no luck. The fuse melting issue seems to be a fairly common problem. (see: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=336911.0)
Both blades have two or three 0805 resistors missing. I moved parts back and forth between the board while troubleshooting. Nothing major and easily orderable from Digikey.
Asking: BTC0.4 This includes free shipping in the US. International will be extra.
Ok so I have the exact same 1.8k reading across both R120 and R121... I removed R121 and the part looks like it is in spec. Does this not imply a short somewhere else? I am sorry, I am too much of a noob at this to figure out what to do next.
I have not received (in several hours) an auto payout across multiple coins depite passing the auto payout threshold and requesting payouts in several different coins.

Sorry for the silence on this topic... I have not had a minute to do some testing...
I swapped out the buck regulator and IC70 with no luck.... My symproms are: I read .6v instead of 3.3v at the test point at the top of the board and my led does not flash during boot up. The lack of flashing led has to be a big clue....
Any thoughts?
