Frank,

I have not heard about this company until your post just now. I did look at this miner your describe and see it cost around $2,400. That's a bit much for a 200GH machine since butterflylabs.com has a 600GH for under $2,200. This being said the 600GH from butterflylabs.com is a pre-ordered product and you would have to wait for it to be produced after your order it. Looks like the 200GH you're looking at from A8IM.com is in stock ready to ship.

As for your other question most the companies that make mining equipment will only accept wire transfers and bitcoins as these are the forms of payments that can not be disputed.

Good luck.

Looks legit to me, their prices are significantly higher, than the cheapest you can get somewhere else, so there is a big chance they will deliver, also they are not producing, just reselling available equipement.

Let's just assume for a minute that you'd not a shill.

What makes more sense...

Ordering directly from the manufacturer who is known to deliver immediately via UPS for $1160

Or paying $2500 for the exact same thing, but from a website that no one has heard of, which was setup last week, out of someone's house whom also cleans swimming pools...

If you choose option #2 you deserve whatever you get really.

@dave111223

Have you personally ordered from either company?

I've ordered from Bitmain yes; products arrived in 3 days and worked.

Have I ordered from the website that was setup last week, that using a "domainsbyproxy" whois and sells for 150% markup....no

So your suggestion is ordering from a factory in China, because domain proxy and sells 150% markup.
After checking seems there is no address from your refereed company Bitmain and they also us domain protection.
Delivery 3 days within ASIA, isn't that where your are located? Are you the Shrill?

I asked a newbie question and my point may be a little aggressive simply because all the fraud going online because people are so quick to refer someone based on "price" rather than assurance and that's what my self really look at.

Can anyone suggest a website located here in the USA that they have had experience with?

People are suggesting Bitmain for good reason.

They deliver, and they are NOT a scam and they are the best price.

Why would anyone order from an unknown entity at a greater price with no guarantee of shipping.
If you can pay on pick-up that's a whole other story.

Look through the bitmain threads for the good the bad and the ugly. It is mostly all good...

@southerngentuk
Who has the best price in the USA local pickup or delivery?

Yes I suggest ordering from the manufacturer in China because:
- They are trusted by 100s of forum members
- They have a proven record of delivering
- They offer the best price because they are the manufacturer

I'm in Thailand, so it's 3 days to Thailand via Express Saver; which is worldwide 3-5 days, so might be 4 or 5 days in US.

But then again you could just hang around here and wait for the next 2 post noob to show up ask about FOuwqf.com that no one has ever heard of and then just buy from them instead.

[frank78]

Let me re-ask the question:
Does anyone know of any company that is located in the USA that sells bitcoin miners for a better price than http://a8im.com with local pickup or delivery?

From my research and talking directly with a8im.com they are:
Register business in the State of Florida since 2010
They offer local pickup and fast delivery
The lowest price on complete 200GH and 400GH miners
Offer 6 months warranty in the USA

@dave111223
I seen your signature about buying soccer shirts with bitcoin and being the "noob" that I am you are contradicting yourself when giving advice on this forum.
Your website http://soccershirtsonline.com/ is "WhoisGuard" should I trust your site?

My website wasn't setup last week; it's been in business 7 years.  https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://soccershirtsonline.com

Where as https://web.archive.org/web/*/A8IM.COM for your website shows it was are parked "For Sale" page as little as 6 months ago:

Plus you could also search customer reviews, you'll see google returns 40,000 results for "soccershirtsonline.com"

Let's see how many results for "A8IM.COM"...800...and not a customer review amongst it.

So let's add it up again for A8IM.COM:

- Website created extremely recently (possibly days ago? certainly less than 6 months)
- No trusted reviews
- Address appears to be a residential house, which is listed as a swimming pool cleaner
- Price is 250% the manufacturers price
- Owner not present on bitcointalk? (or instead uses puppet accounts to try to promote)

Adds up to stay the **** clear

If you want to start selling mining equipment you should come on here using your real account and introduce the business; and be straight up with it "I just started this website, I'm reselling bitmain in US, I have X amount is stock and it's available for pickup" instead of create puppet accounts and sneak in links via bitcointalk and readit.

I mean come on...what exactly did you search for that you happened to "come across" this website?  Wait lemme guess a *friend* (same friend that got 50% defective bitmain stuff) told you about it?

[frank78]

@dave111223
I'm not affiliated in anyway with a8im.com I came on this website to find out about them. The replies I received was to buy from Bitmain since the price was low and I simply stated that a friend bought from them and 50% was defective.
After multiple replies and engaging in somewhat of a conversation there was facts and non factual replies so clearing each one up with you seems to be a one sided conversation and accusing affiliation with them (sound just like paranoia), and reaching out to see if there is anyone out there in the USA offering Bitcoin miners at a reasonable price. A link was given to amazon. If you wanted state something worth more than POM 2 PLY you would have put the time behind the reply. Did you think I was going to take your word all the way to the bank or is this an open forum for discussion and knowledge.

yesssssssss?

Here we go again

@ anyone with a difference of opinion
Lets compare apples to apples

200GH asic miner amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Visionman-ASIC-Bitcoin-miner-Prospector/dp/B00HFI4420/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1391408422&sr=1-2&keywords=200gh+bitcoin+miner

200GH asic miner a8im
http://a8im.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=59_60

and when I compare the
antminer s1 on amazon
180GH @ $2258 + $110 (psu) = $2,368  I'm paying $13.16/GH
Warranty 90 days

Avalon Asic Miner on a8im
200GH @ $2500 (nothing needed) = $2,500  I'm paying $12.5/GH
Warranty 6 months

So where is the savings?

[southerngentuk]

There are no savings, even the antminer is so close to negative ROI it is of debate @ 1.45

If there is a couple of weeks delay on shipping there's a huge chance your negative, buying btc is better than risk with an unknown.

[Unacceptable]

I'd still go with Bitmain,I've been watching their threads for a month or 2 now & am satisfied with taking the chance on their miners.

In fact I'll be ordering 2 of em tomorrow 

If you can pay when you pick them up,then give a8im a try 

Good luck!!!

Are the shipping delays your talking about because of the Chinese New Year?

Likewise, am happy with the product, nearly clicked the button a few times, but decided to wait closer to the 8th. A week is along time in this game.

But each to there own, there is enough info in the ant/avalon threads to make a risk/reward decision.

Ant's start shipping again from the 8th after cny

same applies to most Avalon that tend to be built to order, so expect further delays.

Most Avalon based have had production issues with poor quality control from what I have read..

Edit : Frank, you are aware of the groupbuy section I guess, most Ant/Avalon suppliers are split between there and here. Have a good read..

[southerngentuk]

I would like to add A8IM.com is a home address and has no commercial premises.

The website states they order direct from factory ( no mention of the factory being in US ).

Am sure your just paying a middle man here.

Good Luck
