I think you will not understand it before you will try. I think better to use official bitmain store.

That doesn't help, has anyone tried this site?

Normally i would say scam. But never heard of this before (which suggest scam). I would recommend that you dont order anything of there unless Bitmain tells you they are an official retail seller. There are ALOT of scam sites like this one out there.

I don't completely understand what you are posting there, but when the order was in my basket they did call me about the order.  They supposedly are in washington state.

Dude, its a scam. The website was created 2 weeks ago..... And someone they have a professional looking site? It's a scam. The site says they've been in business since 2016 and no body has ever heard of them and again, their site was created 2 weeks ago.

Did they say washington state? They most likely did because they are scammers and they don't know the difference between the state of washington and washington DC...

They didn't say anything, the call came in from a washington number.  I only found out about the site from craigslist and luckily I didn't have enough bitcoin at the time.  Figured I would check to see if anyone ever heard of it or did business there.

Let me guess.

You emailed someone about GPUs. They replied saying they just sold them but you can go to this site where they bought them. They think they still have some available.

Did I get it right?

How did the craigslist person buy cards from the site and resell them when the site was only registered 2 weeks ago?

It's a total scam.

That's exactly what happened

Hence the scam.

They are trying to make it even better by getting your phone number and then calling you. I have not heard of this technique before. It definitely tries to get the victim to trust them.

Just wanted to stop back and say thanks for saving me 750 dollars.

The person is still on craigslist running the scam too.  Frustrating.
