[Antminer S1 Sales open] Price changes daily, now 0.414 BTC for 180GH/s

[vnhyp0]

What is the standard wait time for RMA items? I have returned 2 broken control boards over 9 days ago and have not heard back on any response regarding the parts. While most S1's we have purchased have been in good condition, 2 of the 40+ have faulty boards that need replaced for them to work.

Is there something I can do to expedite the process? I have emailed both BITMAIN, Sushi (per request of BITMAIN), and contacted their QQ numbers, but still have not received any information regarding the status of the RMA.

It would be nice to get these S1s running that have been offline now for nearly two weeks, as they are losing value quickly as time goes on (as you know with the price drops).

Thanks.

I told myself I would not buy any more miners ... then Bitmain drops the price and puts a bunch of coupons in my account. Now I have another thash coming and not enough electricity to run it

Is this to be filed under first world problems?   

Bitmain is ridiculous with their daily sales.  Kudos for a mining company that knows how to do business and treat their customers right (So far).

Now, where is that S2?!

WATCH OUT

Bitmain site is down and going to another domain!! Looks like a DNS hijack!!

Getting pushed over onto 119.9.72.212/product.htm

DNS has also changed maybe bitmain is moving server but doubt it

Wait for an update

That doesn't happen to me, and I'm in the US.

https://www.bitmaintech.com/product.htm works just fine for me.

If you go to that domain you get the following message "119.9.72.212 uses an invalid security certificate. The certificate is only valid for the following names: *.bitmaintech.com , bitmaintech.com (Error code: ssl_error_bad_cert_domain)"

I placed my order on the regular site and didn't get any certificate errors, hope that means my order is good and not jacked!!!

Website seems to be back up and going to the usual DNS - Bitmain as already issued a warning about a copy site that is trying to phish for details.

I wonder how under attack the main site is!!

So... I am not posting to whinge - but as a warning to others. If you are sending anything back to Bitmain - be sure to send it tracked and registered.
I went for the 'quicker option' and sent it via 'regular post'. Not recommended.

So, now I have an Ant that cost me 1.45 BTC, it only mined for 16 hours and then the controller failed. It had a solid green LED on the network port. A quick 'two-way-swap' confirmed the controller was faulty. So I posted it back on the 19th Feb. I have emailed and PM'd both Bitmain and Sushi, till I am blue in the face. Bitmain just keeps replying with the same message.

thanks!

I have ordered  a couple of more times from them since , and requested that they include the replacement controller - to no avail....
C'mon bitmain, get it together   Your delivery times and zero BS approach are exemplary, we should be so lucky that other companies were half as good.  You just need to tighten up a little on your after-sales customer service. Keep up the good work - and purleeze - check your PM's and email and sort me out....
Thanks

I would suggest everyone to watch out today and wait for confirmation from bitmain. DNS Hijacks are nasty!

The server at bitmaintech.com can't be found, because the DNS lookup failed. DNS is the network service that translates a website's name to its Internet address. This error is most often caused by having no connection to the Internet or a misconfigured network. It can also be caused by an unresponsive DNS server or a firewall preventing Google Chrome from accessing the network.
Error code: DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN

Staying off the site until Bitmain has confirmed is safe... DNS Address is flipping all over the place. Am I the only one that is getting this ? I have tested via server in USA and getting same error

Ta, sorry - should have been clearer on my question - how can you know the following...

Flush your DNS cache then try again. ipconfig /flushdns
