After watching for a couple days i figure this is all a scam:

-There are 0 actual pre orders for sale (people who actually paid for their units first)
-Every listing is made from a new account
-Every buyer is from a new account

This is being done by the same person (or group)

All the data is being collected and sent to bitmain so hopefully they understand everyone buying their stuff never intends on paying, therefore it will hurt them in the end as they will never recieve their money for their hardware.

Get it in now, because your gravy train will end soon....

I did mention the same thing...

Assholes buying up BIG orders, paying by Wire transfer instead of BTC.
Then selling these here on BTCtalk and other sites just for quick (good) profit.
They haven't paid there orders, just taking in ALL the L3+\D3\S9|T9's for sale...

I hope Bitmain -forces- them to pay Wink

(And I hope Bitmain will try to stop this idiot actions)

Yep scam is with Wire paymemnts as they allow 7 days for payment. Will report this also to them. No problem if reselling alredy paid order, but not these free ones.

Does Bitmain allow changing shipping address after placing the order?

Yes. Also, the emails and account can be recovered even if you change the password.

So you pay for the account and pay for the miner and they get the miner and a little extra in the end.

IT is Bitmains fault because they can easily stop it by letting as many order as they want but people gets put in line based on when they actually pay, then after it is sold out, all unpaid orders get canceled.

Are you willing to do escrow until the shipment date?
The escrow fee maybe higher (i think escrow will charge monthly fee) but its safer for buyer if something happen in the bitmain account (both from inhonest seller action or bitmain change of policy)

I dont agree if bitmain place a restriction on the account. Some people can afford to have 10 miners and more in one go.
I agree if bitmain make no change delivery address so there will be no one selling un-paid account.

I totally agree with wheelz1200 that its OK if you risk your money by taking the order and sell it back.
Not some people that wake up earlier, have high speed internet, create many account and take most the goods that they CANNOT afford to pay it
