Colocrossing Cloud Metal Server transfering
Hi all,
I bought one of them here https://www.colocrossing.com/server/cloud-metal-servers
on promotion and paid for whole year
but it turns out it is not what I need and want to transfer it.
Anyone interested? Price will be $55 for the rest of billing period and then you pay further.
Colocrossing confirmed it could be transferred on other account, I'll cover transfer fee.
PM me if interested.
Thanks

Comments
Just to add next billing is required on April 11th 2025, so it is 9 months left for $55 and than you can renew it after that at same price $80.64 / year. I cover transfer fee of $5.
server location ?

Hi if you are interested please PM me
bump for offers
I think it’s going to be hard to find someone who will pay that much for a VPS with such a bad GeekBench score.
is it really a dedi server? why the geekbench score is so low. even a $1 vps perform better. sorry but this is the worst score i have seen anywhere. how it is so low?
It is not dedi guys it is VPS - precisely this one https://www.colocrossing.com/server/cloud-metal-servers
and the price is $80.64 / yearly,
https://postlmg.cc/H8nhYr0n
so next billing due is April 11th 2025. I'm giving it for $55 all paid up to April 11th 2025, and I'll cover transfer fee with CC ($5)
it says high-performance so why the yabs is very low?
Giving it!
In my eyes, you have bought some old overpriced shit.
Try comparing your YABS/GeekBench score with the following offer and give me one reason why someone should pay $55 for the VPS you are trying to sell.
AMD KVM 4GB offer $50/year: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/193886/linveo-com-amd-ryzen-7950x-kvm-vps-with-nvme-disk-from-15-year-now-with-10gbit-in-texas/p1
YABS: https://lowendtalk.com/discussion/comment/3936985/#Comment_3936985
And there are many other similar offers here on LET.
If you want to sell the VPS, do it at a reasonable price.

You want to tell me that CC has frauded me with their offer and I was naïve. That's probably true.
Here is top also, st seems ok, no noisy neighbors but still getting a feeling that it is not what was advertised. It seems not dedicated cores as should be

If there is no load, there by definition can't be steal.
Not quite right, there are also "Idle Steal". tl;dr: I miss the comments that imply "false advertising"
I am not aware of any provider that sells VPSs with a CPU that is this old and slow, so it's hard to put a price on it.
Your latest GeekBench score is what you can expect from E5-2660 v2.
