Title: Need to buy new mining Hardware
Post by: airpline1 on July 05, 2015, 05:13:04 PM
A couple of months ago, a couple of my Antminers went down due to losing connection while updating the firmware. So I'm planning to get new ones, but I can't seem to find which one to get, and from which reseller.
I don't mind if its new or used; as long as it works.

So can anyone help me with this? and point me to somewhere legit?

Look into serial to usb saves assuming it was S3's.  You might be able to save those miners for 10 dollar or less adapter in most cases.

As far as new gear buy direct.  If you are looking for used gear most likely look on ebay or the forum.

Best prices on used gear is on this forum, you'll just have to be patient for the right thing to come along.  Expect to pay 20% or more markup on eBay due to Risk of scammers, eBay's fees as well as paypal fees.

Don't buy from ZoomHash.
