Title: Terraminers sold cheap, need someone to confirm delivery first
Post by: phenam on May 10, 2015, 01:10:51 PM
There is a plastics manufacturing plant based in Vietnam, and I came in contact with the owner through networking. The owner has TVs, PS4s, Cameras, and Terraminers (2th/s) in the inventory. They have been operating for over 30 years with verified credentials. I was able to negotiate with them and knock down the price. I can't advertise on here, so any person interested in a test order, please send me your Skype for more info. I will refer you to the seller with the discount. Expect to spend $1000 for a good quantity at your own risk, then you can decide to get more later. The tracking number should be included with the delivery.

They are practically being sold for scrap at this point, with those economics in play you managed to get the price down to something reasonable with shipping?

Yes, they are new and should be 100% Genuine with the warranty.

Except for the fact that terraminers were never produced outside of the US and Cointerra is bankrupt and unable to honor any form of warranty..

Did you do any research before negotiating with this seller or simply say 2Th (actual is 1.6Th, they never revised the PCB to get back to 2Th) should be XX regardless of the efficiency of the miner, or the state of the manufacturer (bankrupt, assets being liquidated).. Not sure I understand your play since on the surface nothing makes sense...

So they have a huge supply of them unused and they just have been keeping inventory on them?  Really?  May have been news last year but this year I find it hard to believe.  Along with them being bankrupt now deems this story unfeasible.

These Terraminers will sell for $500/ea on a wholesale scale(at least 10 qty). You may do a test order, which is instead of 10 or more, buy 1 unit first, then get the rest later.

I know Cointerra is out of business and the creator worked with Nvidia before.

However this seller has at least 100 Terraminers in stock along with other electronics. For the exact number in stock, I'm not sure.

On ebay most Terraminers are used on limited supply or defective, anything around $75 is on bidding price. It's still rock bottom price for a new Terraminer, which is $250 per terrahash, even considering it is known to underperform by a few hundred gigs. Other used 1th/s Miners on ebay average at $350 at least.

If you have that kind of money to risk to see it delivers, I can refer you to the seller.

Post photos of the 100 Terraminers then in sealed packages. I highly doubt there are at least 100 Teraminers those were like $20,000 EACH when brand new. Why would someone order $2,000,000 of these miners and never use them?

You're posts make no sense. I don't know if you are scamming people are not.

Since you are so sure, why don't you buy them all for super-cheap then sell them for a reasonable price?  This doesn't smell right.

$500 is way too high for a Cointerra Terraminer.

I'll see if they can get photos of that this week, if not then I will close the thread. It could have been bought on liquidation. I want to see if they are a scam, that's why I let someone buy it before me. And I'm not a scammer, because a scammer can do better than this.

There are no unused TerraMiners outside of the US period. They were ALL manufactured in and around Austin, Texas. Why would someone ship 100s of them to the far east and just let them sit unused?

Their bankruptcy auction was recently, there were some Terraminers, but nowhere near 100 and certainly not 100 that are unused.

I didn't think they got to the point of an auction yet, when did that happen?

You should really do the following, if you do really have those miners.

But, even then why here why not just sell it on ebay, I seen so many people pay premium even for BFL 60 ghs.

In the future though, escrow with no photo id of your bitcointalk tag is really inexcusable, if you didnt know this then now you know.

SCAM WARNING

A brand new user claiming to have hardware he wants to sell with no proof given and offering to talk over skype... Fishy.

Always use escrow... and NEVER do trades with new users without it unless they send first of course.

Use caution buttcoiners!

No new miners were sold in the bankrypcy auction. Only engineering samples, and miners used for testing.

Even if these miners are actually out there you would make to pay most people to take them. There are much more reliable, cheaper, quieter, efficient miners in the market currently. Those miners used what? Like 2300Watts?

OP is there any updates like pictures or proof any of this actually exists?

So far it looks like nothing more than a scam.
