I've never even heard of them until now. I know it says that the 1.2 TH machines ship in 4-8 weeks, but it doesn't say that in the info like it says it should, and it lets you choose pick up, and 2nd day shipping. Sounds like a scam to me. I searched the forum, and only came up with one post linking to them a couple weeks ago. They are pretty damn high in price compared to Cointerra's 2 TH machine, but you don't have to wait 3+ months.

Looks nice but yeah never heard of them.

The 1.2 TH machines is not available on credit card though...

Quote
Payments accepted for this Miner are: Wire, Check and BTC only.

...so this sounds like a pre-order (or scam) and not stock that could be delivered in the charge back window.

If anyone orders one of the little ones on Credit Card and it arrives let us know and give us a review.
If they had these to deliver I'd have expected a real photo rather than a 3D model though!  Wink

I just realized it's a US outlet for bitmine.ch

Quote
We’re happy to announce that Advanced Mining Technology Inc. has been awarded an exclusive distribution contract for Bitmine’s CoinCraft A1 based products in the USA!

https://bitmine.ch/?m=201311

It had better be genuine as the mail and wire fraud laws are pretty tough in the USA, as I'm sure BFL's Sonny, who was extradited from Italy, could testify.  Wink

I have contacted them and told them I would like to come in person and pick one up and pay cash for it.

If I get a response I will let you know.

Looking forward to what happens. Better if you drop in unannounced, as this gives fraudsters less time to put an act together.

Make sure you see it running, and sucking some coins if they do agree to your request! You never know, they could just try and sell you a $6,000 box of PCB boards! Sad

It's sad that the new company announced here is automatically labeled as scammer.

I plan to visit there very soon as I need to be in Philly on business. it is mentioned in my earlier posts.

Isn't it though! You can thank the previous ASIC manufacturer's who didn't follow through with their promise for that! It is a damn shame!

I agree. Very sad to have every new company labeled as such :/

I would NEVER go for preorders... I'm glad I bought my blades for cheap on asic labs (they were cheaper, but prices have been increased since prices on amazon increased :/)
