Topic: [SOLD OUT] 1.45 BTC Antminer S1 180GH/S Shipps on Feb 13 (Price Protection) - page 12. (Read 63774 times)

Ah. I had everything checked by default. I unchecked and re-checked and there it appeared. Thanks.

Same boat. I ordered a hosted miner as well and it never came online after a full week. I asked for a refund a week ago because I was so fed up with the process. Still nothing...

There is the single unit by itself select "products" then have miners checked.

@bobsag3 Why no S1's without the PSU anymore on the site? I'd rather have the option without due to shipping and border costs for what a PSU which can be had locally is worth.

Thats a possibility as always- however ive never gotten more than pristine almost new units, and sushi himself has delivered more than few to us.

Agreed. Return policy also appears to be more reasonable.

I really have no concern for the length of testing as long as the system isn't stressed and the moment I pay for it, it starts on it's way. Yeah inventory ends up competing with us but you think anyone can prevent that?

You dont really believe that do you??

Maybe you Minersource dont test it, but there at least another level up right?  in distribution

Ours come right out of the box- nothing beyond the 1 hr is done if that is purchased.

You would assume its working if it was "tested" on the farm for a bit 

Could buy one from MinerSource they have a setup deal so your Ant will be setup and tested before it ships.

Bought one with hosting...  Still waiting for it to come online.  So far money is in a black hole with no email responses and no mining going on.  Just waiting...

Yeah when they're good they're good. It's when they're no good that's really disconcerting. Seeing that it could be supplied that way makes it alarming when the fix really isn't a fix.

The solution could be to provide cloud hashing for downtime until a full swap could be carried out and if an inexpensive component part is the Achilles heel of the unit send it without question. Every manufacturer knows their systems vulnerabilities in short order and prepares mitigating strategies if they are to remain in business.

I bought 1 and it's been mining great overclocked for 3 weeks - I was going to buy more but with no comment from sushi about these reported problems I'm wary now.

I bought and now after hearing this consider myself fortunate but to left pray there isn't a malfunction.

I was kicking myself for not buying... But now after hearing some of the problems people have encountered I am glad I sat out on this GB.

Hopefully you'll get some attention posting information. It's hard to dispute facts and ignoring them also sends a message.

My AntMiner has spent one month in hosting undermining good sushi in China, but now I do not support.
I do not know a solution for me.

You're being far too accepting but I appreciate the predicament of trying to remain civil under the circumstances in which you have few options.


Before Sushi attempts to flog more units I believe the reason for this ridiculous deposit policy needs to be clearly articulated. It's treating people as being dishonest without reason. Clearly the pictures demonstrate the issue lies with shipping you product that should have never left the factory in the first place. Shameful on both counts.

 well to be fair.  I could have sent the gear in and waited for it to arrive to them doing no cross shipping.   then I just would lose hash time. and shipping fees.

I ended up shipping it to another seller of the gear  my cost will be 30 to ship 30 to return and at least fri, sat, sun, mon, tue, wed hashing lost.

 I would have been fine doing this with sushi's rma people if they never asked for 1.35 btc to cross ship the one part.

  Once they asked for this I lost faith in them as I felt insulted at what I consider an attempt on their part to play me for a fool. BTW since I have posted this complaint zero contact from them on the threads on pm's and on my email. No apology no face saver email like we meant for you to send the 1.35 btc deposit for an entire machine replacement not the one part.

 The real problem in BTC is this treatment from asic builders to asic buyers. Most likely it will kill off the industry.
Right now as I type the best hash for cash is still an s-1.   No asic builder says I will bury antminer by being a little better deal then they are. As long as builders of mining gear continue on this path the industry will never truly take off.
   Sad as there is a need for s-1's as space heaters in many parts of America homes have electric heat.  I live in New Jersey and I am looking at homes in Tennessee and Virginia .  I have found many homes use electrical heat   S-1's  would be great in these homes  use the same amount of power and earn back BTC while you do it. But the opportunity will be lost due to poor service from asic builders.

 I know of quite a few  places with electrical heat in New Jersey  I was considering do  a heating setup in a few dozen but with rma service like this nope.  Oh well.

Two weeks. Incredible. Shit Hosting
sushi you do not help me?
