Last login march 5th...yep it's dead jim. You guys should definitely be covered if his account got suspended. Doesn't make it any less painful or annoying having to deal with disputes though. In one right now personally, not on paypal though. I have a feeling paypal is a better dispute handler than what I'm dealing with right now Grin

Sorry for the old revive, but I was interested to come back and check this. At least it will serve as a warning. I see s9's have indeed dropped a ton in price though. Coupons and Bitmain and all that.

Looked like a scam from 1st post.

OPs not been online for 12 days with this account anyway, probably got another.

Hope you guys get a refund.

Apparently PayPal locked his account. Waiting to hear back about a refund.

Still nothing Andrew???   Huh Huh Huh Cry

I just pulled the trigger on 10 841s with one free 821.  No more room for another go around here.

I sent 11,320 via PayPal and it was refunded because of a 180 day hold on money in his account due to a rise in activity.  We could not make a deal using forum escrow or Escrow.com.

Most of what I received in e-mail seemed to be true.  Some details seemed hard to make up.

Since I tried doing this deal S9s go for ~900/ea less on e-bay, and bitmain dropped their price another $400 or so, and with cheap $200 cupons even more.  If I could pull together the money to do this deal for 10, it would be a lot less than 1150/ea.  Probably 750-800.  I'm imagining these units have been run long and hard.

He dont accept escrow and local pickup

Sent payment for 9 broken S9s yesterday. OP says he will be shipping on Wednesday. I'll post when I get tracking.
Any word? Shipping is basically closed for everywhere now. If they're broken then I don't see why there would be need to scam unless they just don't exist.

If the scammer OP can't make money running the S9's for mining, then how would anyone else profit with them?

watching this thread as it's very similar to threads selling miners by the serial scammer that owns these accounts:

For god's sake - no one reads whatever is posted here.
Do you know what mean "as-is" - this means with faults, broken, etc. - FOR PARTS.
Does anybody even follow the thread or just jump to the latest post and start typing bullshits...  Cry



You dont seem to understand how everyone in here is conditioned by the insane amount of scams in here.  People post this as a warning, if no one did people would be getting ripped off left and right.  In here its guilty until proven innocent like it or leave it but thats how it is.

If you bought 18 moonlanders, it'd have cost you about half of that...  Embarrassed
It doesn't seem plausible that someone would value their miners as worth only two cheap scrypt sticks...

Paid $3400 for 18 as-is miners via PayPal.

Will let you know how it goes.
If you paid $3400 for each miner, you are insane. If you paid $3400 total for 18, you got scammed. Why the Hell would any legitimate seller, sell 18 ASIC for $3400.00??? If it seems to good to be true well then....it is.

I've paid that price per miner recently so I think its a pretty reasonable price considering I bought all 18.

Like I said, paid via paypal. Will post updates as they happen.

Thanks,

PayPal's limit is like $20,000.  I'd say that's a lot but it isn't when it comes to crypto equipment.  Just something to keep in mind.

Right, Paypal only covers up to a certain amount. And also the miners would likely be categorized as some sort of computer and not industrial equipment.

Very odd there's not been any real conversation for a while here... maybe people are just waiting for deals to fulfill to come back and say what's happened.
