to be clear we can still get the group buy if you cannot order through website, so either way your pandas are secured and will be shipped directly to your address.
cheers all
Is this 100% guaranteed? I have trust issues after baikal dealings lol

Well, that was an epic fail:
Received an email from Baikal at 3:21 AM on 4-26-2017 asking for the following: 1) Purchase quantity. (eg: Quad-Cube * 4)
2) Payment method. (bank transfer/BTC /DASH)
3) Detailed shipping address with phone.
4) Any special requirements
Sent Baikal an email for a quote as indicated on 4-26-17 4:01 AM. No reply.
Sent Baikal another email for a quote as indicated on 4-26-17 4:53 AM. No reply.
Sent Baikal a Skype message on 4-26-17 12:22 PM asking did they get my emails because I have not heard anything back yet. They wrote: "pls be patient, we have so many orders from email,my collegue will response you ASAP."
Sent Baikal another email for a quote as indicated on 4-26-17 7:25 PM. Got a response saying: "Hi, Sorry to tell you that the batch of cube and quad-cube miners were sold out again, and we have no idea when the next batch will arrive now. If you have gotten a quotation from us(via email or skype), please do the payment as we have quoted before the Beijing time of 10:00 PM in April 27th. Otherwise the your order will be canceled. Please wait patiently and we will share you with the news about the new stock as soon as we can. Best regards, Baikal"
Some mess this has been, lol. The title of this thread truly expresses how this experience went. LOL
EDIT: Guess i should of sent like 10 emails before, since it seems they reply to selected emails randomly...
well all for the best monday skype person said send email in above format I did so for 6 (split with buddy) tuesday did follow up on skype and they said re-submit ....looking sketchy so i put another one in for 4 (split with buddy) wens early am....skype person said all was well on my order...but I put another one in for 2 only (split with buddy) Got form letter today they are out ..just after skype person said I was ok on an order in that she forwarded my problems what a cluster again probably for the best i heard they still were charging the 0.73 rate or btc from the last run of 300mh baikals and with shipping some were saying 1010 usd ....with the btc hike...thus not here till May 15th.... probably a good thing...I'm equip fat on asic pow anyway... and already got my one (maybe no roi) toy 300mh cube in the basement anyway..so shucks.... What other miners would you recommend?

Surprised how few of us are scared of being scammed? Especially with those Russian email screenshots

sold out pretty fast last time around.
I would prefer to do a group buy with no discount, direct ship
Agreed, wish these companies had some customer service ordering any popular miner is a hassle & stressful

I got a quote from them for a cube. fuckers wanted .7813 btc for a cube they said $799 plus $37 that should be about .65 btc they are asking $1010 US
They did the same to me and my buddy. . Also they sent us the same BTC address 13pMF7f4XjvPg2qS3McGfUAov1k1bTZZb2 I see a lot of BTC going to this address. How are they determining who paid? Are they still asking for screen shots with confirmations? They did ask for 2 screenshots but thats not very valid imo . . wish they had a quality reseller or something

Only prayer really is if somehow LTC price can keep up with the difficulty.....
yep bitmain either plays the flat difficulty and we see little miners outside of their data hall in the world till say end of fall or they use this to pump difficulty so far up they drive from the pow scrypt field all asic's not made by bitmain (though that would mean say L3's would be the next to fall of the cliff as other stuff was pushed off) thus are the a local country villian? or a world domination villan? it will be one camp or the other My bet: They will do what this guy below always wants to do....and likely will be successful at it for all pow scrypt/ sha-256 and I'd bet my left nut they are going to make an X11 miner and do the same with that. but again ...likely this Bitmain...it is how they roll.....asic's popping out in the world like 'toasters' sheesh edit: further proof of their 'evilness' and 'fake firmware problem' the link below the guy says he has an L3+ with January Firmware...so much for that lie. taken from the below post and thread from a guy who says on bitcointalk he has gotten an April 15th Bitmain L3= quote: the most interesting thing is the file system version. it says the version is from jan 20th lol. if they really delayed the miners because of firmware issues that date would be changed because they would have had to load a new firmware version recently....not 3 months ago so this is more proof that what he said was a lie.here is an exact copy and paste of the miners front page: Miner Type Antminer L3+ Hostname antMiner Model GNU/Linux Hardware Version 1.0.1.1 Kernel Version Linux 3.8.13 #22 SMP Tue Dec 2 15:26:11 CST 2014 File System Version Fri Jan 20 18:13:55 CST 2017 BMminer Version Uptime 14 Load Average 0.80, 1.08, 0.72 unquote: pretty damning stuff imho...but wtf..not like they have to worry about 'customer concerns' as the only asic maker of anything of any size/note. (evil works tm: bitmain) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1734098.msg18754421#msg18754421sh*t they are so evil they don't even TRY to hide it ...damn lazy ....if your plan is world asic control...step up your game..no pride in their 'evilness' ....damn slackers!!!!! your posts are always funny and informative 10/10 lol but yeah . . wish I had an l3+ miner as of .. today!

You guys are comfortable dealing with baikal when their whole system could currently be compromised?

They did the same to me and my buddy. . Also they sent us the same BTC address 13pMF7f4XjvPg2qS3McGfUAov1k1bTZZb2 did you guys pass? did most people pass on this? my 300mh is getting like 7 usd a day...with the double difficulty I expect....gotta be about a year to ROI at best now they already may be 'too small' to bother with ...again ...except as a 'toy' I am assuming the $1010 is WITH shipping? So I am looking at $852 for the last one with shipping to USA and this at $1010...assuming with shipping for likely making 1/2 of this 1st cube has made so far and 18.5% increase in price for half the hash ..if..my difficulty doubling is correct ($158 usd more in real dollars) yeah probably not Too little ..too late..too much $$$....I have a maybe no ROI toy 300mh cube now already.. one more at the above prices and my difficulty expectations ....I can wait I guess) Yeah I'm frustrated like you are! We asked about bank transfer because that BTC price is a scam in itself. As you said at $850 I want ROI in half a year not in 1 year of I'm lucky you know? Another user posted email screenshots pointing to this being a Russian scam so idk. . .

Can anyone who's previously ordered successfully confirm their BTC address? Pm if needed?
|
|

Why Baikal is silent in this thread post ? It needs to give an answer on the whole situation!
I specifically asked them to post on the forums tonight and they have not.

Should we assume since theyre now accepting USD wire transfer that they have been compromised or are we all going crazy lol

Any one has sent wire payment in USD?
they send me a form to pay by wire , but ill hold off seems fishy Singapore bank? UOB Bank right? they re-send bank detail with account number and beneficiary name now..It is a company name. I tried to call UOB Singapore, they wont disclose the account holder if this is legit or not, Bank just informed me to look at the forum LOL...but we are all scare like hell being scam with real baikal or not ?!?! Can people who have ordered successfully from them in the past chime in? How'd you pay, to where, order confirmation? etc edit: I sent them a link to this thread and asked them to post us a reply . . we will see if they can take the 2 minutes to do so. . Yea let us know. Before we ordered via their website and pay with btc (contacted them via skype they convert payment usd to btc, and send conformation btc payment to them via skype and their web). they replied with this - Website have our contact QQ, Skype, email. Advising clients to multiple certification of our identity I imagine they will not be posting in this thread .. lol

I am talking with Baikal now via skype. They are asking for payment upfront for second week of May shipment.....Yes I agree odd as they never asked in the past for prepayment of orders.....like Bitmain style. I will hold off and wait for stock.
Now we are accepting the pre-order of new product Quad-cube , details for pre-order please refer to below information: 1) Price: USD3196/unit. 2) Delivery time: the second week of May. 3) Payment term: 100% payment in advance. 4) Payment method: US dollar and BTC. Please let us know if you are interested. did they say this to you?

I have been checking the profitability calculators for dash several times a day and throughout the day the profit varies by thousands of dollars annually, why does this vary so much?

I dont understand why we cant just pay our personal shippement. I dont care about the 30$ group buy discount. Please told to panda that I am on the list and to send my 2panda+2Psu like a normal order. So I can directly deal with panda. Like the US distributor.
yeah the group buy discount is voided and then some if you're paying shipping x2

A lot of negativity against BTC, if BTC fails then that will set the crypto market back years. It's the most well known currency and people will perceive it as the "best" because of that and if the "best" fails real world application and adoption will be slowed perhaps dramatically.
