Title: Antminer R4 Bringing mining back home -Yeah returning your defective R4 to CHINA
Post by: boomin on January 21, 2017, 08:10:21 PM
Buyer beware. Half of my R4's didn't make it more than 2 days.  So sad to see a company that has produced such quality product slipping violently!

I can post my buy history with Bitmain.  One order alone was 30 BTC. 

They need to address the quality control issues of this machine and most likely the T9. 

Read the other problem posts before they "sell out" of the next batch for us all to "Bring their miner back home to China" FOR REPAIRS -on our dime while difficulty goes thru the roof because they have disconnected all these machines and sold them to us and now they are "testing" the "new to us" machines in a month or 2.

I honestly LOVED Bitmain before this experience, I just wish that I would have read about all the problems prior to the last order.

Running about 25% board failure rate for me. We'll see how this new batch does.

How much are you paying in return shipping?  Yoshi repaired mine for $200.  Not the worst alternative in a bad situation.
