    $42.38 4x 7296MB 30GB 5.5TB ATLANTA, GA 1236

    Last year deals I renewed:

    • $24 in buffalo
    • 2 Pro+ in San Jose and phoenix
    • a low end in phoenix

    Totally, I had spent about $300 on this. Well I bought too much :(

    Some fun facts:
    1. It's difficult for me to choose one as best deals, but I do regret buying tiny things, especially $1-installing debian 7 makes 300MB bandwidth gone, several tiny deals pops up some warnings about not enough buffer or something. I you do want regular usage, pay few more dollars to get a better one.
    2. I checked all their nodes and they are different at all. Seems like random.
    3. Speaking of phoenix, did you notice there's no phoenix deals at all? Wondering why.

    @smallbibi here you are

    Sharing some experience about $1 machines:

    After taking it I can't reinstall any os from SolusVM panel. After requesting reinstallation it still fail booting. I must manually mount iso to install.

    Not every iso works, debian 8 fails here.

    Alpine fails.

    FreeBSD works.

    Finally I got debian 7 installed using netboot.xyz. Entering install wizard will prompt you "Low Memory Mode".

    Here's a benchmark of it, didn't wait until network benchmark finish because I don't want to waste bandwidth.

    Doing theses things used about 300MB bandwidth, yeah it's 30%. :neutral:

    Now I just shut it down, one day I will install Windows 98 on it. :lol:

  • That is beautiful.

    Can't tell because I heard some others(not $1) also encounter this. But I did try.

    That was a joke, right? You couldn't possibly have missed the bazillion notices of "no refunds"? It's shit like this that ruins deals for the rest of us.

    Lol whatta dick. It was a monthly plan that I accidentally ordered in my haste. Do you not read?

    Edit : If you followed what I said instead of jumping all over me, it was in response to my ssd8g that virmach posted for Easter egg. I missed that small portion and ordered at full price, realized my errors thanks to fellow poster and canceled

    Thanks for the explanation. That's much better.

    @seraphkz said:

    @seraphkz

    What the mystery codes are: "easter eggs" (something as a challenge to hunt for, to reward interest and engagement - but not simply given away as a typical sale incentive)

    Where the codes are: hidden as clues in comments in this thread, and also possibly even in the thread from the 2018 flash sale (which is still seeing much ongoing commentary, over a year after it started!)

    I think these easter egg discounts are not meant for everyone - some people enjoy the puzzle challenge (just as some people enjoy the flash sale madness, even with the captchas and 502s - it is a bit crazy, but that may be human nature)

    So maybe just relax and decide if this is a game you really want to spend precious time playing. If so - great! Read these threads carefully and you might find some clues - @FAT32 does give good hints sometimes but it is really not easy. (Personally, I found mostly just that I don't have much patience for this game!)

    Finding a good VPS service is often enough of a challenge I think :) So please enjoy your VirMach service, take good care of it - and then everyone's a winner!

    Is that 90% off SSD512 still valid? I've found a ton of eggs but some say they've already been used and I'd rather not keep wasting my time if it's already gone.

    Surely the people who already found it know if it's still available?

    You don't necessarily know if a coupon you use will be "still available" and valid for future uses.

    You can just stick it in the cart and see what happens, no? And alternatively, someone who used it recently can speak up - they might've been the last one to get it, but it's better than nothing.

    Some coupons may be once per use and some may be once per person. @Fat32 can shed some light on that perhaps.

    IIrc all coupons can only be used once per person, but there are multiple uses (for different users) for each of them.

    Just a guess, but I believe Virmach's billing site does tell you it's a valid coupon code, just tells you that it's one per person or something like that.

    I mean, just use another browser or incognito/private browsing and check if the coupon's still good at this moment.
