We shouldn't demonize all private resellers of the miners (like for example on ebay). At the end, it is a matter of trust and integrity.
In my country however, it is almost impossible to buy from ebay.com as fees to Europe are a killer. Ebay.co.uk has no fees, but ridiculous prices, something like x4 or x5. Local reseller websites are full of scammers. So for me for example only the official vendor is the choice. Which reminds me that Bitmain hasn't released anything in more than a week (usually they drop something every week).
we should indeed demonize all private resellers, they add nothing to the world, they are a damn plague that make something fair to something unfair
A private reseller is taking an unit from somebody that wants it.
Well I sent my US wire transfer last week, and yet today my order says "expired and unpaid" ... Anyone else in the same boat? I uploaded my proof of transfer last week as well. I opened a ticket late last week and still no response from Bitmain. Sigh....

My last couple of wires went through and were confirmed within 1-2 days. However, they are on a company Holiday (per sales rep) until January 30th.
They are out of the office until the 26th....
On a side note, anyone getting their s9s in yet? If so from which batch are your purchases that are arriving now? I have 19 coming in in March and plan on renting a new space to accommodate growth. Don’t want to pay for February rent if I don’t have to worry about them coming early.
I received my latest shipment ~3-4 weeks early.
Darn... I wonder why mine are still unconfirmed then even with the proof uploaded. I've never ordered through US wire before, only BCH which obviously gets confirmed almost instantly. Of course they're on holidays too lol... They should not have released a batch right before and then just close shop for a week with many customers wondering what's going on.
Your status is still unpaid? mine changed to paying 3 days after sending the wire, still no paid status....
