Auction for remaining 2.5 months on Delimter dual L5420

edited July 2015 in Offers

I have a Delimiter dual X5150 that I upgraded to a dual L5420 when they offered the one-time $100 upgrade. It just renewed on June 29 and will next renew on September 29, so there's about 2.5 months remaining. I couldn't pass up the upgrade deal, but still don't know what to do with it, so I'm hoping to transfer it and recoup some (or all) of the $100 one-time fee that I paid.

Server details:

  • HP ProLiant BL460c G1
  • 1 IPv4
  • 2 x 500GB w/ HW RAID (E200i)
  • 16GB RAM
  • 5TB transfer
  • Recurring amount: $90 per quarter (at next billing cycle the second HD can be removed to drop this to $60 per quarter)

Auction details:

  • Start price: $1 USD
  • Bid increments: Minimum $1 USD
  • Reserve price: $49 USD (may be waived at my discretion)
  • Buy-it-now price: $100 USD
  • End date: Wed July 15 @ 10am EDT (UTC-4) (approximately 48 hours from now)

NOTE 1: You MUST have a VERIFIED PayPal account to bid.

NOTE 2: You MUST be an existing Delimiter customer to bid.

NOTE 3: If you DO NOT have a VERIFIED PayPal account, or if Delimiter denies the transfer (you are not a customer, or you are not in good standing, etc), you will be refunded and I will offer the transfer to the next highest bidder (if any others pass the reserve)

NOTE 4: I have no idea how long Delimiter will take to make the transfer -- I will submit the request after receiving payment, but if for example they take a week after that no partial refund will be given

The high reserve price is because if I can't get at least that much, then I'll have to fall back to Plan B :) Don't forget for somewhere between $49 and $100 you're getting the $100 X5150 to L5420 upgrade as well as approximately $75 in unused service.

For those concerned, I did get permission for a non-domain auction, and I hope I've followed all the rules correctly.

@Spirit can I please have 24 hours of unsink? Thanks!

    Why would you start at 1$, when if it does not go over 49$ you would not release it? Why not start at 49$? Also, don't they offer these machines for 20$ per month atm?

    To be honest? Because I'm hoping people bid in $1 increments and help keep the post at the top for as long as possible during the 24 hour unsink period :)

    Also, reserves are usually at the sellers discretion...if it gets close to $49 then maybe I'll choose to let it go anyway...updated the original post to mention this fact.

    And to the best of my knowledge the $20 servers are a BL260c and do not have hardware RAID. If one doesn't need hardware RAID, then they're definitely an option to consider, as are the Dacentec servers that have been posted about a lot lately.

    Makes sense. Good luck :)

  • SadySady Member

    Dacentec one is probably better. I do have a L5420 with 2x3TB LSI HW RAID 16GB at $30/m.

  • ReeRee Member

    If it's dual L5420, and it's in stock, then that's unquestionably a better deal.

    And his post is undoubtedly an awesome way to make sure your auction succeeds.

    I don't want my auction to succeed if someone is getting a worse deal then they could get elsewhere, so I welcome his feedback.

    If it was available I would buy it without thinking twice. Great deal!

  • FarjadFarjad Member

    20$ ?

  • BruceBruce Member

    $25

  • ReeRee Member

    @Farjad @Bruce Thanks for the bids. I think I'll hang on to it for awhile longer and see if I can find a use for it. If not, I'll probably give it away shortly before the next renewal, so watch for a post in mid September.

  • $5

  • is it still available?

  • $6.

    Can i ask for more IP?

  • ReeRee Member

    @virzo @stallion @windytime90 Sorry, auction ended almost 3 weeks ago. And I found someone who can make use of it, so it's not longer available.

    Can a mod please close (or set to sink)? Thanks!
