Overall, I would just try to get on group buys with trusted people here through escrow.
Or just buy directly from bitmain or manufacturer website.

Firstly because resellers charge a premium, making it much harder to ROI.
There is basically no power left in your hands after you send your BTC to them, manufacturer like bitmain you can trust but not all these companies may be as reliable. As you have basically no power over them after you send them your BTC, there is no buyer protection.

So if they accept paypal, that might be a safer option.
Eastshore is safe to send your BTC to,
Heaven tech is rather unorganised and has a high premium, I had to prod the guy 2~3 times before sending my L3+.
Segree/Bitwinkor I'd personally never buy from them again.

Segree Bit-Winkor,
Highest premium out of all resellers.
Bought two D3s for September, payments made waiting shipment.

Shenzhen Heaven tech,
Ordered 1 L3+ back in may.

Delivered two month late,
I ordered the may batch, but he told me that there were delays from bitmain's side and shipped the batch in late july / beginning of august.
The machine itself was new and had no problems - but the delay was disappointing.
Also considering the premium paid at the time.

Eastshore Mining - eastshore.xyz
Transaction amount ~ 7000 USD
6 PSUs and 2 L3+ September stock.


PSUs were requested for earlier delivery and they did so promptly,


---- update----
1000W PSU working fine with L3+,
Now waiting for L3+ batch to arrive,
Vanessa is very kind and cooperative, and their premium is not as absurd.

Most recommended seller out of all.

Hi, I am a small scale mining farm operator in China.
I am creating this thread as a reference for potential miners buying miners from China and Alibaba dealers, reviewing each seller that I have had an experience with.

Currently I have pre-ordered miners from:
Segree / Bit-Winkor's Amanda
Eastshore Mining's Vanessa
Shenzhen Heaven Tech's Ken
I have ordered directly in the past from Innosilicon and Bitmain - and they will be left out as they don't need to be proven.

I will update the thread for the experience with each of the companies and how it goes with picture proof of received items.
I am doing this in hopes to weed out bad dealers / scammers and prove the legitimacy of ones that actually deliver.
As I felt that there wasn't much reviews on Chinese sellers on here that I could find.
Please feel free to upload your experiences on chinese dealers.
