Topic: ntek 1.2th/s miner? - page 17. (Read 27942 times)

It should be credit card companies risk or any shops risk if they don't deliver to the card holder's address.

I'd be uneasy about sending Bitcoins to these guys are their domain registration is hidden and that's not a good sign normally. 

sock puppet fail?

I used credit card

What payment method did you use?

I pre-ordered this miner from ntek on Jan 9th and I believe I am one of the first to do so.  I will say, as other have mentioned, that Ry Bruscoe definitely seems to be a real person...I have spoken to him personally and exchanged a dozen or so emails since my order.  They always seem responsive.  I also did some homework, and Rev-Up Render (ntekcomputers parent co) appears to be a real company with established business in the GPU rendering arena.

If this was a scam, I would have to say it is one of the most elaborate I have seen.  But that doesn't mean it's not a scam.  I'm sure people have gone farther lengths for less money.  The reality may be that this is yet another company that sees bitcoin as a lucrative market but cannot deliver what they promise when they promise it.

I have yet to receive my order or an idea of when it may ship (now 17 days past payment clearing).  None of this is meant to bash the company or anything like that - I hope it is legit, since is rather be happily mining than trying to get my money back.  I'm just stating my experience with them is all.

I'll be the first to post here when (if?) I receive my miner.

Feel free to msg me if anyone wants more info.  I'm in the same boat as Bartman at this point, just a little deeper in the water...

I hope so!  I am awaiting the test..I want to order 10 of these asap if this is true.

My understanding is that the chips will be in tomorrow n boards will be assembled starting tomorrow. Then expressed ship to be placed in the case then shipped after bench test...

This looks pretty fake tbh. The website doesnt look like much time was spent on it. Dont risk it  :/

I ordered mine on Jan 8th...it is Jan 26th..there were 7 other orders at that time..so I am confused as to where they are..I am awaiting to see this product though.

I ordered mine jan 22 so the 14 day mark would be February 3rd plus shipping. I am sure they are legit and as soon as I get mine I will be posting a review as sum of the other members that are reviewing this miner

If and when I get a tracking number I will even post that

Been watching this post didnt someone order pretty early on this post?? What is the date of the end of your 14 day waitin period To claim to be able to ship 1 t/h miner with in 14 days is pretty hard to believe.. Anyone have a exact date that they should recieve one ?? Once one member gets a miner in hand there going to sale like crazy and maybe that's what Ntek is going for ..

If you have the product tomorrow please call me because I am very interested in buying some. I'm not interested until you have them in hand. I hope that everything you're saying is absolutely true and if it is when you were going to have a wonderful company. I'm not trying to bash you at all I'm just trying to look out for people in the Bitcoin community. If you were able to provide one tear hash $8500 tomorrow I will be interested. Good luck. 

I ordered this on ebay on Jan 8th and I cancelled the order due to how fishy everything sounded as whole. I believed in what Ry was saying, but I felt as if he was being scammed from another person. I was told that within 14 days the product would arrive. I also said that once the item arrived that I would be interested in buying at the minimum 10 machines paid for on time of arrival and I would fly out to get them. I am not the savviest business guy but I do know that would be a good profitable deal at $8500 a copy. Now all I asked was that I received pictures as soon as ntek had received the one prototype or working model. I have since noticed that the entire picture of the miner has been changed and that the old miner was again listed on ebay from Romania. Now it is Jan 26th and there is still no evidence of proof of this miner. I am curious how many people are being taken on this? It is obviously a scam at this point. I hope that anyone with a credit card cancels the transaction before its too late. I was notified within a few days from ebay that the seller account was that of a known scammer and they took the account offline for a while. They managed to get back that account however somehow. The miner was called a "Cherry Piee 1 TH miner" at the time and now it has changed to ntek. I was contacted by another new member of ntek and was told they would get back with me as soon as they had the  1st miner in hand. If what I am saying is not true by any means please speak up and correct me ntek. I am just looking out for people as I was one of the lucky ones that got a refund from BFL because I used a credit card and I know the feeling of losing thousands of dollars to a greedy feeling. The whole purpose of this company was that it could provide a miner within 14 days that could mine at 1TH and actually have a return. It looks now though as we have another BFL on our hands? Anyone that would like proof of my Jan 8th purchase on ebay can PM me as I cannot figure out how to upload pics here.

Perfectly said

I have had a number of conversations with Ry also in relation to the miners they are going to build and in my opinion the community may want to give the Ntek/RevUpRender a close once over and determine their depth in the rendering arena as a solid platform for their first move into BitCoin mining as a fabricator. Clearly they have deep roots in the rendering game https://www.revuprender.com/pages/case-studios and what this company and Ry bring to mining might be exactly what we need in this community a professional gravitas.

It is good this community roots out scams as quickly as possible and I agree that this is necessary given the bs we have seen passed off as legitimate companies that actually ship product. Time will tell if Ntek will deliver as promised but there is plenty I see here that gives me the sense that this team will produce miners based on their background in rendering. This is not an endorsement. This is merely my opinion based on the review of the information available and the communications I have had with Ry.

At this point let us see what Ben T. says about a unit review and let us see what NTek can show us in the coming weeks as they build their miners. I wish them luck and welcome what I suspect will be a definite positive addition to ASIC fabricators based in the USA as we all know we need more players in this market place that will deliver product on time with little or no bs.

I did buy one look at the link above ur post I am waiting for mine to be made and shipped. I asked everyone to be patient and as soon as I get mine I will have videos and everything.

Someone who is BTC rich, Should buy one to confirm. If they can show proof here and have a support thread like any other mining gear company, Then they should be considered some what legit.

You need to charge that iPhone dude.

nTek Computers is more of a brand of RevUp Render. As an example, Disani is a brand of CocaCola: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dasani

We may make nTek into its own company later but for now our focus is on getting our TH miner out the door. Please just give us time to show our miners in live videos and reviews soon.
