OMG  :-\ , God will replace everything you've lost. Thanks for the warning about this site, and you should be careful in the upcoming purchased. There is a lot of scam site which they claim a hundred of dollars by this shitty method. You should verify the site first and see feedbacks about it and then you can decide if you buy or not, Don't use any site directly without any research.

As expected you're not the only one and there's probably more than this: https://www.trustpilot.com/review/market-mining.com

And there's actually a similar thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2768197.0.

Threads like this and the one's above will always be useful for people who actually does some background checking before paying but it will never be for people who doesn't so I hope this should serve as a lesson to you.

I've seen a lot of the same sites popping up with different names, and the results are always the same.

The people who use these sites at the end always gets scammed. There is no exception. All of these miner sites sell products for cheap, and in the end when you think you're getting a good deal you're actually getting conned out of your money.

If you paid with BTC then obviously you're not going to get your money back.

If a site is not established, not heard of, and has no positive ratings and only accept BTC, you shouldn't ever use them.

Sorry for your loss man but this is always been the scenario for those people who tried out to buy GPU's into those unknown or random sites without even researching about their legitimacy and seeking out valid feedbacks towards it and most of the ended up on crying and regretting in the end. We can eventually avoid these things if we are just responsible on what we are doing and this will really give you some lesson.

Thanks for letting us know.

Obviously there is some fault at your end for not doing your research before you bought anything off of these guys. But I don't think it's fair to say that it's all your fault for getting scammed. Don't forget that scammers are the real ripoffs here.

As a general rule of thumb, if you see any site that is not an official reseller or does not have proof that they are an official reseller/partner of the manufacturers, or at least have original pictures of the rigs instead of pics from google, you should avoid them.

A lot of them do accept paypal/cc though, if you aren't sure and you really want to buy from them at least use PP so that you have a chance of charging back. But don't even use them from the beginning I'd say.
