Topic: Huawei F100 VU9P FPGA Mining Cards now Available - page 3. (Read 2169 times)

If you are selling these and are legit you must have one or some that you can send for philpma1957 for a review because only a idiot is going to send $4000 to someone or some company that just popped up on BCT, so anyone who does this pre order and gets screwed remember you where warned 

I'd be cautious of pop up businesses like this. This is how people get scammed. There seems to be no indication of any real product and as others pointed out, this could be just some college kid who built a website while copy pasting FPGA specs and is now trying to trick people into buying nothing.

I wouldn't touch this with a ten foot pole.

As I said on preorders you may be subject to long  delays.

your credit card and PayPal may charge up front and tie up 1000's of dollars.

I have been around for years on this site and I can tell you 8 of 10 preorders pretty much have been a scam or really delayed a long time.

Very few did well. Basically the op does not have a timeline for delivery as I read his info.

note PayPal has issues with 45 days so do not pay with PayPal you will not be covered.
if you use a cc make sure they will cancel at the 60 day mark

good luck to buyers.


6. DELIVERY

Delivery is estimated at between 6-8 weeks.

They take credit cards.  If you order and it doesn't arrive, dispute it.  No need for a complicated escrow.

Of course you have

The website was created 9 months ago, but we have been trading 3 years. Yes its Toronto, maybe check all of other shopify servers while you're at it?
We also have a farm of our own, we don't give out this address for obvious reasons. Maybe check out our facebook or join the discord server?

If you're genuinely interested in FPGAs why not give me a call? Or if local, how about meet for a Coffee? If not, please keep your hard earned money.

This card seems real...

I can find the F100 and the F40

I just understand the chinese language

I've been looking to buy FPGA but can't help to see red flags:

You said you're not new but your website was made last year and you just pay for one year?

I don't want to imply anything but I see somebody trying to hide something,sorry If I offended anybody but I wont give my hard earned money that easily.

PS: Huawei doesn't need merit on the forum but they don't need to sell here either...maybe a joke?

It was a joke buddy. I am sure that Huawei can confirm the device or do they need a bitcointalk trust rating too? (another joke)

Have you seen his trust reputation? philipma1957 is not a scammer. However you are, until you show proof of your device, and the best way is to send as demo board for review to a trusted member.

We are new to bitcoin talk but we are not a new company.

A group buy works differently to a pre-order. A group buy is effectively one large order placed by lots of smaller buyers in order to get a better price and ensure that a product is made available to those who would not normally have access. This order must be paid upfront. A better option for all parties is not using an escrow, but paying via credit card which offers better protection for consumers even after the products have been delivered. I do appreciate the offer though, anything that protects our community is a good thing, as long as you aren't the scammer of course

you are pretty new and fpga's have been plagued by delays and outright scams.

I offer my services to you as an escrow agent and I would be willing to demo a product or 2 for you.

I do this for many new builders of gear.

I am USA based and I am very well known on this website.

I offered services to squirrels and the acorn they were going to sell they did not take any aid or help from me and have been plagued by delays.

I would hate for anyone to have these issues ordering preorders from you.
I would also hate for you to be a scammer and selling fake preorders.

FPGA boards have been used in secret to give some miners an advantage over others using other general purpose hardware such as GPU's. Thanks to a movement initially started by Whitefire, (See bitcoin talk: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/diy-fpga-mining-rig-for-any-algorithm-with-fast-roi-3459858) the hardware hidden and used via AWS instances by many, is now available to the community. The community now has several developers working on different bitstreams and mining programs, to ensure that the 'average Joe' can now compete.

In the past, FPGA boards could only be purchased if you own a business and are only available if you make large purchases. Through group buys like this one, we aim to make these boards not only accessible, but also at a much cheaper cost. Through our group buy, and others, we aim to create a decentralized marketplace to even out the playing field. Please note that we do not profit from this first group buy and we only aim to cover our costs so that we can continually build further relationships with manufacturers to ensure that future technology is available freely. Mining is our proprietary business, and we hope that together we can create a truly decentralized landscape open to everyone.

We are currently working on 2 further boards including a smaller FPGA that will offer a great entry level board to those with smaller budgets, and also a powerful FPGA accelerator for GPU's, so watch this space!

We do have a select few developer boards available for those with the ability to develop bitstreams. We have already spoken to some well known developers and agreed to send them boards, but we still have a couple remaining. Please get in touch if you would like to help the community and we can get a board sent to you as soon as the first dev boards arrive.
