I wanted to a $9/Year deal (Perfect for my needs). But ended up getting $7.5/Yr deal. Anyhow something is better than nothing.

Some deals from @Chunkserve https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/4238908/#Comment_4238908

MOARRRRRRRRRRRR

I guess it could also be 'MOARRRRRRRRRRRR.' You managed to buy it, right? After all, you're one of the speed club members—super fast!

no I didn't
If the location is Bratislava I'll take it.

i just renewed the vps .. cud have saved me some money...

barbaros

@Hosteroid my VPS in pending state disappeared from my service panel even I paid for it

Edit: Sorry tapping on Services 0 shows the VPS in pending state.

Edit2: I was the idiot for not choosing OS while purchasing the service so that’s why it got stuck in Pending state. So it was issue on my side.

And I’m grateful for quick reply from support.

Problem solved

@Hosteroid is prem stuff. They're not going anywhere, and they've been here for over a decade. Just google their ASN/Company name and add lowendbox to the end

You can't compare this to the $3/yr deals from hosts that have been here for like a year, even having some reputable LET members question a possible deadpool...

So wanted the Bucharest deal.... Pretty tired of all the Dutch deals! I have got 8 vps already there albeit kudos to the Dutch for the marvelous infrastructure

There are some nice small.us boxes on vps.blackfriday right now if you can deal with virmache> @Blembim said:

Dutch VPS , useless redundancy! Tired

YET-ANOTHER-DUTCH-VPS

I have 26 in NL I think. I think I have redundancy covered:)

VPSs close to you are always the go-to since they’re the sweet spot for super low latency, like 1 ms or just a few milliseconds!

Its the chunkserve deal

Yeah I also have that one xD
But you can't be seriously comparing me this

to Chunkserve which I don't even have status about, but has gone down a lot of times, for a bunch of time.

I meant if 1 vps in each dc, 26 wont cover every DC in NL

The storage has already been compromised (no supplier has responded so far). Next, let’s see if any supplier comes forward with their storage plan.

I finally got a great offer this new year eve thanks to @Hosteroid latest flash deal. Surprised to know that the network is very premium (never had experience with them before). Should be worth the price and then some. YABS:
