Title: is mining store 5111 a legit vendor?
Post by: hanpan117 on November 11, 2021, 04:35:02 PM
planning on buying some miners from them and was wondering if anyone had dealt with them before. they're listed as trusted by both asic miner value and cryptocompare, but you never know

this is their website, btw: https://www.5111.store/

I have never heard about them or seen discussion about them here at Btctalk.

BE CAREFUL.

Indeed it's a an old domain according to whois

Code:
Domain:5111.store
Registrar:eNom, Inc.
Registered On:2017-09-28
Expires On:2024-09-28
Updated On:2021-10-31

But it doesn't mean that the website is old the SSL registration is October 31, 2021, valid until January 29, 2022, it has 3 months before it expires.
According to their about us, their company address is in Hong Kong but the server itself is in France.

So it means that it was created just a few days or weeks ago newly published website not to be trusted. So stay away on that website if you want to buy ASIc miner then better buy directly on manufacturers and verified distributors (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5045732.0).

yeah, I couldn't find anything about them anywhere, so I guess I'm steering clear of them
