Then you should go sell on eBay where people don't know what stuff is actually worth.
Nobody here is going to come close to those prices.

Thaibtc came online today  Shocked
from hospital  Huh

He came online, saw you finally realized you got scammed, and made another alt so he can bait another hook.

Once you find where the fish are biting, its hard to leave, so he'll be around here scamming for awhile I'm sure.

Just bought 4 last night from bitmain for $1415 each.  I think your price is too far above retail.
Correct sir 1415 from Bitmain
When get Miner?

I know when he gets his miner:
In less than 87 days.


Let me show you how to figure this out:
1. You are charging $1300 more than Bitmain does.
2. Be generous, and say that an S9 will continue to produce roughly $15/day for the next couple months, which it won't but it makes the maths easier.
3. Divide 1300 by 15, and you get about 87

This means he is getting his miners in less than 87 days from now.
Just like everyone else that has ordered one lately.


I didn't know why all of you people selling miners think you can sell them for a premium they can't ever earn back over a direct purchase.

Miners are shipping in roughly 30-60 days now.
This means the premium you are adding can not be more than $450-900, which is the amount that can be earned in that amount of time.

But there are people around that can't do math, and will prove me wrong and buy them from you.

They go for that price on eBay because for every two you sell, one is Paypal fraud and you never get your money back or your product returned.

Please disable DASH.
Or at least temporarily for a few days and see if pool profit increases.

the pool is a mess for about a week now....any clue when it will be cured?

Be a patient. Admin says about massive DDoS attack at this weak.

Yes I read that.
But I saw no improvement, that's why I asked

It's not just this pool that has been having issues with this during the last few weeks.

Doing
around 500 Sats pMhs on Scrypt
and around 9700 Sats pGhs on x11


How much would that in term of BTC or DASH per day? For instance, if I have a D3 set up to run at 17.5GH.

17,5 Ghs x 0,0001 BTC x 6400$ = 11,2$ per day. If you lucky and have stable connect.

For L3+ daily earnings is 0,3 LTC or 15-16,5 $
Revenue, not earnings.  Unless you have free electricity.

The power required for the D3's is pretty high.

1: it is impossible to be less than a week old, just the shipping from China to here takes that long.

2: if you understand how business work you would understand that big companies are the once that all the batches of Bitmain and then re-sell it

3: I told you that we open them up and test it so we deal with the crap of sending them back, I dont want to deal with people give me someting after I ship it to them. If you notice from the whole batch I just take a picture to 2 of them because they other we keep them for us. But I am not here to explain you anything, either buy it or just move on. I have no time to lose.





1. The tracking delivery date needs to be less than one week old, not the invoice.

2.what? that sentence makes no grammatical sense.

3. Post pictures of the actual units that are being sold being tested.  Not units that have been permanently installed for some length of time.

Make sure the serial numbers are clearly visible as well.


NEW means new.
Not "tested" for 30 days and then sold.

Interesting test setup for your "brand new" miners.

I mean I always test gear by zip tying the network cable to the fan while mounting the unit on a rack for a simple 10 minute check.
Then I hook up a different network cable and take a second picture to show how tested it really is, and also to prove it can work with different colored network cables.


But, when I'm permanently installing something, it goes onto my test bench, and there it stays with the original packaging materials for months and months until it reaches its end of life.

I guess we do things differently.

Sorry I am not following

Of course you don't.

In short, your pictures show used miners, nothing approaching "new".

Let's see original packaging with tracking numbers visible or a dated invoice that matches and isn't more than a week old.

I am pretty sure that bitmain can clearly foreseen the profitability of the each algo before one or two month

even they can calculate it.

Unit pricing policy , proves it ,

For this reason they knew that customers would be losing money while buying D3s

I believe  they should not let the profit  fall below $ 400-500$

daily 6$ will destroy most of loyal customers with bitmain's competitors together

Bitmain is a very important company for miners community

I would expected them to follow more ethical and sensitive policy.

Anybody can calculate it, you just need to make some assumptions about future network hashrate and difficulty increases. If you pay a thousand or 2 dollars for something and don't do research beforehand it is your own fault for making a bad purchase.
It isn't up to them to find out if you can make a profit when you purchase something.  That is your job.

That is why I have an L3+ and not a D3, though sometimes I wish I would have gone with my gut and got an S9.

There will most likely be people on eBay who will buy your unused D3 for a little more or at least the same you did.  Do not hash with it a few days to 'try it out' and then try to sell it.

Bitmain was clearly know the the actual (f*cked ) situation and they had proceed selling more unit  anyway.
I think , they used us to screw up the competitors ( baikal , innosilicon etc )

it was a good lesson about mining.

Thanks bitmain.



Don't blame bitmain, it's just business and market demand.

Bitmain had to sell their D3's quick because the Innosilicon A5 was imminent. 
I'd be willing to bet that the rapid and large drop this last week is actually Innosilicon delivering A5's to large private buyers who are rapidly deploying them.

Shipping of A5's to public buyers has been 'delayed' again, but when they do ship in a week or 2, the X11 market is over for people paying more than 5 cents/kw/h for electricity.

Thankfully the A4+ is close to the hashrate of the L3+ so the scrypt market shouldn't drop quite as fast when the A4+ starts shipping.

Could you please anyone could share what is the D3(X11)  daily profit at granat.

according to Nicehash , D3 profit is 6-7 $ so this mean it is almost be  garbage before arrives.  





That's about ri right. Before electricity you'll currently get around $9/day.

Bitmain has shipped so many D3's, with more on the way, that pre-electricity profit will probably be under $5/day by the end of the year.

Sell it on eBay or craigslist the instant it gets through customs.

Too many new, not actually profitable coins added lately in my opinion. Too much power wasted on Dash going for a lucky block also.
