I have no problem using escrow
Unfortunately bitmaintech is refusing to transfer orders. I would still buy on escrow but the escrow would remain until bitmaintech ships in December...
Did they give any reason for not transfering?
No reason. They also rejected my offer to purchase a large quantity of l1 without explanation. My spidey-sense thinks they have signed some exclusive with someone ...
People have tried to do group buys with them for hundreds of Antminers and they have declined as well. I guess they are doing so well selling them without any discount there just is no incentive for them to do it.
