With the bitmain not currently taking any new orders on Antminers L3+, I was looking for another place to purchase them. All of the L3+s available on ebay and amazon are 4x original value and I don't trust any of the sellers.

 Looking at other websites like as-shop.su. Link below. DO NOT PURCHASE FROM LINK. For the prices that they are selling at $1430, the website has to be a scam. While at this price it is around the price of an L3+ from bitmain, it would be unreasonable for the site to have purchased a large pre-order batch and hardly mark up the price for resale. I would not recommend to buy from them no matter how tempting.

You could have known that just by searching as-shop.su and scam on Google.

One scam seller doesn't make all resellers scams - though scammer reseller sites ARE pretty common in the cryptocoin space.
I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!
