This thread announced itself to me yesterday; and I didn't look at the date. Pre-order scams / excessively late shipments have been occurring over and over again in crypto since custom hardware began to be produced.
I hope torontoBTCmanager has already received the miners he ordered.
Giga Watt has panda miners and they are trustworthy. They are mining hosting company, you can check them out by searching CEO on coindesk for articles about his history in the industry

https://www.gigawatt.sg/product-category/gpu-miners/You have to be a WTT token holder to buy, the tokens lock in 3.3c kwh. You only need one token and you could buy the miner then rent tokens from others or pay the retail rate for hosting. If you want to lock in the 3.3c kwh and avoid hosting fees 1375 WTT tokens. 1250 watts plus 10%, you know how miners say +/- 10% well you need the extra tokens to cover the 10%. The ICO is still going so you can still get tokens

https://www.instagram.com/gigawatt_mining/If you are planning to mine ETH just know that the rx470 hashrate is dropping because it's 4GB not 8GB, still profitable especially when operating costs are 3.3c kwh but something to keep in mind, I know a lot of people are only interested in ETH even though there are a ton of profitable coins to mine.
Anyway that's the only reputable place I know selling panda miners. Everywhere else is scammers. Before I found giga watt had them in stock I was refreshing panda miners website ten times a day lol.
