    download more rams, isn't it uncommon to provision on 92GB ?

    usually cheaper 32/64 , or 128 upwards

    Downloading RAM will take some effort:

    Virmach has been selling to fraudsters and spammers for years on rented platform, and they haven't deadpooled yet.

    ...and I still don't get how they do that. CC doesn't rent servers THAT cheap, do they? I'd also expect Virmach being hit by a decent amount of chargebacks considering their target audience and their strict AUP enforcement.

    Sure.

    HiFormance was getting E5 2650v2's w/ a /24 included for $180/ea/month outta CC. Virmach is paying at most that, but likely lower.

    There's a good chance CC is doing 5 year leases on their gear, that way they get the price pretty damn low.

    Francisco

    CC leases their gear to HiFormance or Vendor leases gear to CC? This means that the gears has been depreciated to 0, and the cost of CC on account is only electricity and IP?
    But it is still difficult to understand the low price of CC...

  • My honest piece of advice is to focus on your local clients for selling vps or sell them somewhere where you can at least get paid your listed regular pricing.
    Or
    Restrict yourself to selling shared & reseller hosting only & wait until you can colo top spec servers at reliable datacenters to offer vps.

    Those providers who either lease or colo with CC lose my respect. I do not consider such hosts as decent & reliable.
