    When you catch up to me, come talk to me. I was almost there also, 1GB Xen for $6. Still sustainable for us.

    but if it's sustainable for you (who?) why it cannot for others? I remember a discussion of you talking of XXXXXX figures as they were big money. Now you troll around as if you are the king of the net (got some dad money I think)....

    I know your old and everything, but no its not "dads money" its mine, and I made it for myself. Its sustainable for us because we can do things other hosts cannot, and without that ability it just does not work. Can you sell $7 2GB VPS's and make a 95% profit? I don't think so.

    I'm sure our monthly income is much higher than yours and your a dinosaur when it comes to how long you have been around. To me that just yells failed attempt to grow.

    @jeff_lfcvps I apologize for the derail of your post.

    I'm in the IT since 1986, so sure I'm a dinosaur. Hope you are not a butterfly.

    There is no way a 2GB OpenVZ VPS costs you only $0.35/month. (unless you stole your nodes, rack space, power and bandwidth)

    Like I said, we do things other hosts cannot.

    Then prove a 2GB OpenVZ VPS only costs you $0.35/month.

    I do not need to explain myself to you, or show you my costs. The only way someone will ever find out our costs is if they decide they want to try and buy us and sign an NDA.

  • VPNshVPNsh Member, Host Rep

    I'll buy you out. My offer is $0.35. Take it or leave it.

    Times that a few hundred thousand and we can maybe talk.

  • VPNshVPNsh Member, Host Rep

    This is only possible if you're only payment method is cash/check. By your statement you are making $6.65 profit yet after Paypal fees your income is only $6.44.

  • @CVPS_Chris, I'm done with this thread -- if you don't like our pricing, that's fine but basically accusing us of using stolen hardware is beyond the line. We've been around since 1996 and are profitable, are we as profitable as you? Maybe not but if we want to sell VPSes for this price -- that's our choice.

  • jcalebjcaleb Member

    can the discussions be moved to another thread, and let this one be about the offer?

    I picked up a LFCVPS 128 (256) XEN VPS in May and am very happy with it. The performance is solid and the support from Jeff and his team has been very good as well. I certainly hope they're earning enough to stay around.

    Happy owner of 5 dedicated servers (PHX), 1 LFC VPS, & 1 BuyVM VPS

    @CVPS_Chris said: I was not talking about the specs of the machines. The prices your charging do not make any sense and over a one year period would barley pay for the machine. Then we have to throw in colo/bw pricing etc.

    Nothing wrong with 1 or 2 year ROI ... Not everyone here is looking for quick cash by putting 100 VPS clients on a RPi machine (not talking about you, just a general statement).

    Anyway, let's stop with baseless accusations and e-peen discussion.

    Yeah, I didnt suggest it was stolen I was saying that to make my point the pricing was not sustainable.

    Anyway, good luck. Lets see how long your VPS branch lasts :)
