Anybody heard of these or bought anything from them?
Saw a listing which was an advert for their site on Ebay.
They claim to have every latest miner available and are offering 20% discount with the code summer20.
Looks to good to be true.

According to the website DNS they are located to china not good to deal with them because they are using UK domain so there is a high risk that this is a scam website.

They accept both wire and bitcoin and no PayPal so if you deal with them there's no way to reverse the payment back.

I found another thread similar to yours and I think it will help you to decide if this site is scam or not
Here's the thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5141406.0

This is the webchat convo with blocknomics regarding their client

Hi, You can use Blockonomics to easily accept bitcoin on your website/store. Happy to help you with any queries.

I plan using one of your client's site to pay by bitcoin for equipment and I'm unsure as to whether they are a legit-able firm, do you kyc your clients in case i have to reach them for non-delivery of service?
Tracie
We do not do KYC, please check the credibility of the merchant before making payment on any website. Also note, we only provide payment gateway service and for any non-delivery and refunds you need to contact the merchant.

So, use at your own risk

I suggest you now change the thread title, since leaving a link to what is probably a scam site is just advertising for them to catch people.

Sorry to hear of buddy on what happened.This is indeed a costly lesson learned for you that's why next time its important to research things up
before tending to make transactions.Always verify and asked out into the community because there are lots of frauds do exist on online world today.
For OP,this thread should be locked to avoid further bumps and replies.
