Antminers on Alibaba/Aliexpress

[ilic]

So the Antminer S9 i see on Alibaba and Aliexpress, are they genuine or are they fakes?

How do I go about pre-ordering the Bitmain antminers as their website doesn't seem to allow pre-orders for the Jan/Feb batches?

Where else can I get say 50Thash of mining hardware??

Ans: Most of them scammers. Those who are not scammers, they would tell you that the price on ali sites is not up-to-date (eg S9 for usd$1900 etc).

How do I go about pre-ordering the Bitmain antminers as their website doesn't seem to allow pre-orders for the Jan/Feb batches?
Ans: I would wait for next batch of S9, or perhaps S11 coming soon. The site will update when stock avail.

Where else can I get say 50Thash of mining hardware??
Someone here has pre-ordered big quantities and stock arriving soon. You can nego. with the seller(s).

Hope this helps.
