I found this today and it sounds OK.
Not to cheap and a "normal" looking page.
https://www.whinkel.be/antminer-s9

Has someone experience with this shop?



Here's a thread in the German local boards. Obviously its in German but if you will used Google to translate:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/achtung-whinkelbe-whinkelnl-scam-2470755

Original Text:

Guten Tag,

ich wollte kurz eine Warnung zu folgenden Onlineshops  Whinkel.be und Whinkel.nl aussprechen.


Kauft dort keine Asic Miner!!!

Ich selbst habe im August einen Antminer l3+ bestellt (Lieferzeit wurde mit 4 Wochen angegeben), bis heute habe ich nix erhalten!!!
Man wird jede Woche aufs neue verarscht, jede Woche ändert sich die Lieferzeit + 2 Wochen.
Angeblich wegen Lieferproblemen bei Bitmain, was ich nicht bestätigen kann.
Da ich selbst im September direkt bei Bitmain bestellt habe und diese schon erhalten habe!!!
Also widerspricht sich diese Aussage in meinen Augen.

Selbst das stornieren ist eine Sache für sich, hatte es vor 10 Tagen storniert.
Frist ist heute abgelaufen wollte wissen wo mein Geld ist, und nun hieß es, es wurde garnicht storniert.
Heißt nochmal 14 Tage warten.

Ich würde euch nicht raten dort zu kaufen


And the English translation:

Hello,

I just wanted to give a warning to the following online shops Whinkel.be and Whinkel.nl.


Do not buy Asic Miner !!!

I myself ordered an Antminer l3 + in August (delivery time was given as 4 weeks), until today I have received nothing !!!
Every week you are fooled again, every week the delivery time changes + 2 weeks.
Allegedly because of delivery problems with Bitmain, which I can not confirm.
Since I have ordered directly from Bitmain in September and have already received it !!!
So this statement contradicts in my eyes.

Even canceling is one thing in itself, it had canceled 10 days ago.
Deadline expired today wanted to know where my money is, and now it was said it was not canceled at all.
Is waiting another 14 days.

I would not advise you to buy there


So I guess that alone is very clear that the website is pure scam. So stay away and just look for other trusted sites (although there's a lot of scammy sites out there).

I also can't search it but there's someone before you who have given us a warning as well. So that make it twice already.

Conclusion: SCAM

It is good to go with local stores for the mining equipments, because we spend a large amount on these and when it goes undelivered it is completely a loss and we don't have few doors open for a claim which too won't be in support of us in most cases. I prefer local stores, they'll order and get me the product after which we can make the payment which is trustworthy.

I have a very good experience with Whinkel. I assume they had some issues with the delivery of the antminers. But who hasn't Wink
I orderd 2 mining rigs 160 AMD by them, and it was deliverd in 4 weeks like they promised.
So they are not a scam in my opinion.

So if you ask me i would recommend them! Smiley

Never experienced buying one from them. What do you mean sounds OK? what don't you just buy items from bitmain itself? A lot of scam sites are out there and don't be another statistics for the scammer. If you are willing to go to mining then I advise you to put out a good amount of investment. Its better to be safe here than lose your money here.

They are scammers, stay away!

I made order of some Antminer devices and Routers etc, routers were in stock but they refuse to ship since 2 weeks.

STAY AWAY!
I'm sorry for you lost mate. You are another unsuspecting victim and fall for this scammers. As for the OP, learn the mistakes of this member. At least he gives you a fair warning so stay away from that site. As a advise, just order them to bitmain for your security. Although it will take some time to be delivered, at least you know that you can't be scam by the manufacturer itself.
