Simple man. I know for a fact that MinerSource.net tests every single Ant S1 they get. If they find a bad one they ship it back to BitMain them selfs. Thus they never ship a bad unit to one of their customers, they take care of all the faulty parts behind the scenes to keep a good customer service reputation.

That is how business is done if you want to keep customers.

Bitmain on the other hand is a multi-million dollar company and they cannot even test the unit nor send a new cheap ass controller board! Now you tell me, what the fuck does that mean?

And coupons, ya, where the fuck are my coupons, I have ordered from them several times now and not got a single coupon, yet everyone else I know sits and brags to me how they got 3 coupons and shit. But no, not a single one for me. Not even a damn response to my email to get the faulty part replaced.

For sure I know a lot of people that have ordered with good Ethernet as well.

My problem lies in their customer service.

If they would just send a new board immediately without all the BS of sending the old one back, and battling back and forth via email, then there would be no problems. (I say this because it will cost me $44 to ship the old one back, and that is shipping it in an envelope. Just outrageous!) Maybe that is whey they shipped me that bad unit anyways, thinking I would just say fuck it and forget about it. Trying to push off their shit parts on people they could care less about in another country!

If it where my company and I shipped a faulty unit, I would replace it right away no questions asked. They are being very shady about it.

Not only that, I am only asking for a new controller board, not the whole damn ant. Its a cheap part. I tested the ANT on another controller and the ANT works fine. It is only the controller board that is bad.

Simple, ship a new controller board as soon as they receive the email. The board probably only costs them $15. Then, happy customer.

They fail to do even that. Goes to show how horrible their customer support really is. Scares me to think if I get an ant that does not work at all. :/

BUYER BEWARE!

I purchased an Ant S1 from Bitmain and they shipped it to me with a bad Ethernet port. I cannot even plug it in to have it start mining. Clearly they either did not plug it in and test it OR they just knew it was a bad Ethernet port and shipped it out anyways.

I also have a friend who has recently received and Ant S1 from BitMain with a bad Ethernet port as well. Expect the same to happen to you.

It took them 6 weeks to send my friend a new controller board with a good Ethernet port on it. Great customer service.

I have been waiting for 48 hours now for them to even reply to my email to get a new Controller board.

Now I sit with a useless ant that I invested over $480 in. It now is making $0 a day until they ship me a new part. AND they want you to ship the bad part back before they will even ship you a new one. To ship it back to them it cost $44! Ya, prolly three times as much as the controller board.

If your going to purchase an Ant S1 I recommend getting it through a distributor in your country. At least they plug them all in and test them to make sure they are working before shipping to you. Otherwise you will end up with a brick like us and have to deal with the crappiest customer service I have seen thus far.

Dude get your online presence together and you could sell a shit ton of beef my man. This would be bad ass and a lot of people are looking for grazing raised beef to buy these days. You can kill this market if you get your shit together here. Man I can see this getting huge. You should PM me I can help you with a website and marketing and getting all your online presence together. We can agree on terms.

If you truly raise these cattle and are ready to take off please PM me. Dead serious.

I am thinking I may be open to offers on my domain CoinArmy.com. Registered at Godaddy. I have had it for about a year now. Get's good traffic between 3k and 6k visitors a month. The Alexa rank is really nice at 251,041 which also proves the traffic.

Obviously the possibility are endless with this name.

I have not updated it in a while now.

Looking for a new owner that can take it to the top.

I will get all exact stats for any serious party's that are interested.

Don't even bother if you do not have a serious offer. Not looking to just toss this off as I can always turn this into an empire later down the road here. But for the right price I am willing to let it go.

PM me if you have an offer you would like to make privately. I will get you all the info you need as well.

Just poking out here right now to see what someone is willing to pay.

Peace

Holy batman, another one. So sick of the scrypt though. What's up with that?

He has made many ememys with the way his mouth runs. He brought it on himself. Don't feel bad for him. :/

I bought in with .5 btc as well. They are still dirt cheap. Even if it does half of what BC did, it will be a nice payday!

This new logo looks awesome! When will the wallet be updated with it?

Cool, I will give it a shot!

What mining program do you use for x11 algo?

This guy has been a whack job since day 1. He goes around the forums talking trash on all other pools trying to be a bigger man or something to. I lost all respect for him many many months ago.

Thanks for the post!

Ya right guys, sounds like bullshit. Come install our wallet that has a backdoor in it so you guys can steel all the coins when your ready. Why the fuck would I ever install anything from the hack forums. ITS HACK FORUMS. For fuck sakes. STUPID!

Thank you! That worked. U sooo smaaart!

When I try to compile the Globe wallet on linux I get an error. Cannot setup a pool

Any ideas?

serialize.h:369:19: fatal error: gmpxx.h: No such file or directory
 #include <gmpxx.h>

420! Wooot.

UUUUUUP!! Cool, looks interesting. I guess I do not understand how you can predict value like that? Does not make sense.

I just looked on ebay also and they are charging a bit more for these rigs. If you had the time you could buy the nice frames they have on ebay, re-do this rig and re-sell it for a profit. You could flip it if you had time. Seems to be a few hundred dollar gap you could profit from. I just don't have the time or patience to deal with ebay.

I also think it is important that you realize these are the Sapharie 7950's with the Vapor X Cooling technology. These where hard to get my hands on and I paid a little more for each card because of that. However being that it keeps them cooler, they will last much longer and run much cooler than the regular 7950's.

Ok, thank you. I get ya. It will not let me edit the post so I will post it here. Thanks again.
