Title: Has anyone bought the gridseed directly from Gridseed.com?
Post by: turk on March 03, 2014, 02:43:16 PM
I have been speaking with a couple of people over email from Gridseed.com about buying a lot of their miners.  That said, they only accept bank transfer, and I am little less than enthusiastic about paying in this way to a company on the other side of the planet from me.  My question is, has anyone bought directly from them on here that would mind sharing their experience?

Thanks

That is where I am at right now.  They require you to do a bank transfer first.  If they would do some form of escrow I would be more willing to go for it.

Have you noticed that a lot of businesses that evolve around bitcoin are so shady. I want transparency. So if and when i decide to start a business, it will be kept all legal and above board. i am sick and tired of people ripping people off..

Why cant people just be honest.

Sorry got a little carried away then, its just that people have such bad customer care and support its beyond unbelievable.

They are like drug dealers. They have a product that is in demand and want as much money at what ever it costs,. They dont care about you there are 100 other junkies behind you more than happy to take your spot.

If you said 'okay', they probably thought you meant "Okay, thanks", not, "Okay, I want to order".

Just an update on this, it is slow moving, but I should be paying for my first order with them tomorrow.

If you live in EU prepare for paying a rather large sum for import.

Good luck :)

I would say be prepared to go to china and try to find out where your money went is more like it...., which even if you did, the results is that you would find some abandoned building/house/shack/etc.

I have thought the same thing, but they actually referred me to several of their resellers, on this site (seeds and another one) so I feel pretty confident I am ok to proceed.
Thanks

Also, I am in the US so there shouldn't be any import issues.

I am not suggesting anything and not connected in any way with the chinese gridseed but these are available on ebay with paypal so initial purchase can be done...I am actually thinking to go for it but on the other hand with todays difficulty ROI is very long 200 euro cost and about 30 monthly income excluding electricity???

studio1one, is pretty successful in importing them to EU, you should talk to him unless you really need a lot, he is reselling them at £145.

I'm looking at these to resell.  That said, litecoin hasn't been all that profitable to mine in a while, but other scrypt coins would make it worth it.

I think it will be the same for all scrypt coins: diffucuilty of all the script coins will probably skyrocket soon : https://www.kncminer.com/categories/litecoin-mining-hardware (https://www.kncminer.com/categories/litecoin-mining-hardware)

I would say you are correct.  Plus, with the price pissing match that is going on in the for sale section on Gridseed miners they have destroyed the market price.  All of that said, this entire thread is now pointless.

The Gridseed Blade is a good device.  Unless everything falls apart, yes, it will pay for itself and more...
