Is the groupbuy manageable at all, with the baikal stocks? Thousands of people are waiting for tiny batches. =/ I'm trying to get a Dash Miner myself since Feb2017 and just found this forum a few days ago, which is very helpful by the way. Since then I'm damned to just watching the charts. Normally I'm the personification of patience... but April nearly is over Should I wait for a possible groupbuy someday? ( I'm IN at the moment with a Baikal Quadruple or equivalent) Or should I go with the 1.2GH and try to pre-order? (by transfering to BTC first) I'm from Austria btw. Don't think that matters, does it? Cheers

Guys, their skype is not hacked.
There are several guys replying on skype, all from baikal. The only sad fact about that is that from all these guys only 1 understands & speaks english fluently. The rest of them are just from a bad horror.
When I bought my miner from them, a while ago, I had to wait about 2 weeks just to make the proper order and payment because these guys did not understand a thing of what I was asking.When I reached the english speaking dude it all went very smooth.
BE AWARE: I AM NOT ENCOURAGING YOU TO SEND YOUR BTC OR TO BUY DIRECTLY FROM THEIR SKYPE.IT IS ENTIRELY YOUR DECISION & RISK.
YOU NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO BOUGHT THE CUBE IN FIRST BATCH. IF YOU ARE CONFIDENT THAN GO AHEAD SEND THEM YOUR BTC AND COMPLETE THE ORDER IF ITS LEGIT WE WILL FOLLOW YOU. WE ALL HAVE THE SAME EXPERIENCE AND FROM THAT EXPERIENCE WE ARE POINTING OUT THIS ISSUE.

I don't understand why anyone would buy their miners at the moment. ROI is about 200 days (at the absolute best)
WHAT IS YOUR LOGIC OF 200 DAYS ROI. KINDLY ENLIGHTEN US.

I did not buy the CUBE.I said I bought a while ago that means mini miner.Read with attention what I wrote before you start going nuts. No, I am not confident until I can get on skype or email the guy that speaks well english from their team.

Don't think that matters, does it? Cheers You should wait for the waters to chill a bit or until the group order is made. This CUBE thing is very new and a bit high priced if you ask me. Considering that a mini miner was 300$ for 150MH the CUBE should be 600-650-700$ not god damn 800$

weird, payment with USD, bank in Singapore, its UOB Bank and they just gave account number without the name of the account number (Beneficiary Name - Recipient). Their skype has been hacked!
I had the same experience yesterday when I reached out to them through QQ. But I got an email from baikal@baikalminer.com confirming that the one from QQ is one of their legit staff. https://s23.postimg.org/9nnpsn6iz/baikal1.pngNot sure what's going on if they are being hacked or is it truly legit. I mean, I agree with you that having your customers deposit in an account from SG makes it sketchy AF. The thing is that they also validated through their official email. Anyone experienced something similar?

Have you wired the money to their SG bank? its UOB, i saw your printed bank detail is same like me i got from them.

Same here. The guy told me that the deadline for the pre-order is April 27. Expected delivery is on the second week of May. I initially asked them when is the next batch of Cubes coming out. Then he replied with the pre-order thing for the Quad Cube.

FYI
was told on skype this pre order is supposedly going to end april 27th and not thru the www site
thus you send what you need (4 cubes min or 1 quad I think it is) to their regular email account
they get back to you and confirm etc that way
so ...hell if it is a hack job they got skype and the main email
so anyway just what I was told ..so I sent the amount I wanted (4 cubes) 2 for me 2 for a buddy
we will see if I get a legit reply from the legit email and cross fingers it is a legit rep at the other end
so be warned how this seems to be shaking out
later brad
edit: by the by to stay on topic it makes NO SENSE they did not let everyone here just do a group buy with the same confirm as the last group buys....gonna be a lot more work doing 100 plus individual orders when they could have just used a group buy and email confirm to do a mess in one swell swoop. Also would have been good PR. They really need someone who knows shipping and logistics at that place.

I am looking to get an X11 miner, I am currently mining ETH, but I want to expand. I am extremely interested in Baikal's products! I just don't know where to find them. Can I register here for 1 Baikal Quad Cube? Or if not possible, I would love to get my hands on a regular Cube.

Ok, so I inquired via skype and was told to request via email, but not getting any replys to email in the last 8 hours... From what im reading, you have to order a quad or 4 singles? Thats more than my available BTC, was wondering if I could go in with someone and split 2 single 300's out?

If you can get a legit groupbuy together, I would like to buy between 4-8 cubes. also, is http://www.baikalminer.com/ the only official site for them? There's also this site - https://minerbaikal.com/ which looks quite similar, and probably a scam site, but just wanted to double-check. thanks.
