Title: Just checked the gear for sale on this section many scammers be careful.
Post by: philipma1957 on February 09, 2018, 05:34:55 AM
I just looked at first 2 pages and at least 1/2 of the gear posts are scammers.

I sell and full disclosure I have an open listing for used s-9s.


But people are offering prices that don’t make sense . A new sealed unit with a psu from bitmain is about 2500 with shipping .

Yet people with no trust are offering some new sealed units far cheaper.


Be careful please don’t be scammed.

Also realize they may not be looking to sell they may be looking to get people to. List. At prices that compete with them

Scammers in this section are relentless and have been for as long as I remember >:(

And I'd say 90% of them are scams.

Whats most annoying is new accounts being able to 'lock threads' and make them 'self moderated' as they are obvious scams and can avoid and/or delete questions and comments.

I think both options should be disabled for at least the 'goods' section and 'computer hardware' section as these seem to have the most common problem with it.

Hi legend, I need your help / advise.

I have 1 asic miner running and 2 more coming next month.

My PC is now running as a server for the miner. But when 2 more miners arrive I will relocate these miners to a new location. Thus I need a new PC as server for the mining operation.

My idea is to purchase a windows 10 rig (desktop computer) with GPUs so that I can mine ETH at the same time. Can you recommend me the HW configuration, if my budget is about USD$1000 to USD$1100?

Or even better, If you have a old rig that you want to get rid of, would you sell to me please?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Steve

I will pay for shipping, of course.

If you could build/sell me a rig for this purpose then I will be forever grateful.

Help out a newbee and do a good deed for the year!  :D
