Well I just want one, trying since november to get one, then I had no bitcoins/bitcoins cash only visa, now I have bitcoins but their batch is announce when I sleep 03:00 my time, 09:00 china time and it is sold out in minutes, so ZERO chances for me. I will probably never have one.
The batch that was available at the beginning of December was available for like 3 weeks, 24/7 Why didn't you order then? I actually got that order Dec 27th for 4 S9's So.. If I can make orders at any time of the day, and yes the hard part was getting cash into an exchange to buy bitcoin cash, but once that was there, it was easy to pay bitmain. LITERALLY 3 weeks they were available for sale. I wish I ordered more. I was wondering why they were still for sale for so long.. normally it was minutes, but... not that time.
Well, a batch is coming just now, he'll maybe able to snatch some. I watched for those 3 weeks thinking it was not a good buy and bought none (I had one already ordered on its way) then I ordered for Feb batch at a higher price... Market changes so fast. At some point there will be another period where miners are easier to get, I see how it's frustrating for people new to mining not being able to buy stuff, right now GPUs, motherboards, everything is hard to get. It will get easier, and when that happens it will look like it's not actually worth buying
