Afterall Bitmine should accept some responsibility considering that they've advertised that AMT was (and still is?) their exclusive distributor in the U.S.A.
I contacted them requesting a refund because AMT was their distributor and the let me know I'd have to go through AMT. Even though I had explained in the e-mail that AMT was non-communicative and that they refuse to process refunds.
But if anyone else wants to give it a go on the front of them delivering miners to us I'd be interested in hearing how that turned out. They were essentially supposed to be churning out the same product just manufactured here.
I think every defrauded AMT customer needs to send an email to Bitmine.
Bitmine should shoulder some responsibility after all they directed U.S.A. customers to AMT.
As for the many other levels of messed up - AMT all the way on those points.
No matter what the product, for something this seriously fucked up the company behind the distributor should be bound to be Liable for said distributors actions and inaction's. Can't say I've looked at the Bitmine thread in ages so don;t know how folks are over ther but if Bitmine has/is taken care of them then they need to spread the love to here across the Pond.
Definitely, the said AMT was an *EXCLUSIVE* distributor, that should mean something in terms of responsibility to deliver.
Regarding the Technobit boards..... what ever happened to them?
No we supposedly have boards coming from China.
Yea from what it appears it seems the technobit designs are being assembled in China. Even Marto confirmed that AMT was licensing the design and they would provide design support (not end user tech support). These are not technobit boards perse just the design is technobit. Manufacturing is done by someone else (Chinese in this case). Least that is how it seems from the various posts on the matter.
Either way technobit designs are solid so if we do get those, that would not be such a bad thing so long as the design itself is not borked during assembly. But the biggest thing really is actually getting them at this point....but yea I agree with NotFuzzy on the whole bitmine thing. They caused some of the delays as well with their design issues that led to a domino effect of delays. That said the communications and delays since though do fall on AMT and they are accountable for that themselves.
