This offer is for a Mystery Box, and is quite a bit different from anything that has been done on LES before, so read carefully.
The offer is for a VPS with random specifications and in a random location.
Orders will start to be provisioned once all available quantities have been purchased, or after the sale ends on 23:59 PST November 25th.
The price to purchase a Mystery Box VPS is $20 for two years and is reoccurring.
What is meant by random specifications ?
25 different predetermined plans have been made by the provider and have been viewed by all LES staff.
The specs of the VPS you receive will be in the following ranges:
1 to 3 vCore(s) Ryzen CPU [3900x, 3950x, 5900x, or 5950x]
128 MB to 6 GB RAM
10 GB to 100 GB NVMe Disk
1 IPv4
128 GB to 10 TB Monthly Transfer @ 1Gbps
To give you some idea of what you may receive when ordering a Mystery Box VPS, here are IMO, the three worst, as well as three of the better plans. I've left out what I think are the best plans so there remains some mystery.
The location of the VPS you purchase is a mystery. You may select any of the buttons for location, all labeled as "random" and before activation, the true locations will be revealed. Or if you just want to make sure you get activated in one of our primary locations that has the highest level of availability, consider leaving it on the default selected box.
Each of the location buttons represent one of these locations:
San Jose, California - Los Angeles, California - Phoenix, Arizona - Chicago, Illinois - Miami, Florida - Tampa, Florida - Atlanta, Georgia - Secaucus, New Jersey (NYC) - Amsterdam, The Netherlands - Frankfurt, Germany
Please note, if your random location becomes unavailable due to stock level, it will be activated in the next random available location.
Are orders delivered instantaneously ?
No. Orders will start being provisioned on Sunday November 26th. All orders will be manually provisioned and are expected to be completed by 23:59 PST Monday November 27th, but may take longer.
How will plans be assigned to orders ?
The plans already have a predetermined order and will be assigned in the order they are received.
There are poor, good, and greats plans in random order. So ordering early or late does not determine whether you get a better plan or not.
If I don't like my Mystery Box VPS after it is provisioned, can I get a refund ?
Can you give us a hint on how to get a good Mystery Box VPS ?
Ordering multiple Mystery Boxes through out the day on BF ensures you have a higher chance of getting at least one of the good plans.
Mystery Box Agreement
I understand that I waive my right to a refund for this special offer.
I understand this is a random VPS plan, and it could potentially make me upset.
I am currently traveling in mostly remote areas until sometime in April 2024. Consequently DM's sent to me will go unanswered during this time.

Kinda... yes, almost. But I need IPv4 to proxy some of my requests - so tinyproxy and tailscale (because easier than wg and my home router is retarded and sometimes drops wg connections and won't allow them without hard reboot) and 128MB would kill me there.
Oi!!! WTH guys? We done partying already? I get one night to be myself and not the fear of getting the ass ramming ban hammer and you all flake! Piss on yas I will party by myself!!!

Fucking @VirMach and his mis(t)ery box (-:
DO I CAVE?
20$ for 2 years is almost on par for my 7$ per year budget.
On the other hand - wtf I will run on 128MB of RAM? Debian 12 won't even boot probably (-:

In the spirit of foolishness I purchased the mystery box. Autogenerated name is "Cumbersome Icky". I wonder if that's a bad sign
