Yeah, it's a confirmed scam. My Canadian friend lives just down the road and checked it out. He said there was nothing there but a computer shop. No factory, no Axon Labs, no legitimacy.

They do have a nice site, with phone numbers the works

They do not have units at that location, it sales only.


"We use Escrow.com for Escrow payments"
wow!


"3TH/s+ hashing speed*
1350 Watts (~0.45W/GH)"

"Shipping will start in Q1/Q2 2014. We do not have any unit ready to ship, and will not be able to keep stocks of this product in the future; Produced units are already sold and are shipped immediately after production. "
" units are shipped directly from the factory in Toronto"

they need to update this:
