LMS Global not delivering products, ignoring emails

[phillipsmit13]

HI Guys,

Just a heads up,  I placed an order for a few StrongU STUu6 machines at https://lmsglobal.co.za/, The machines was supposed to be delivered to me on the 5th of September (Which later got changed to the 10th of September).  It is now the 1st of November and my machines have still not been delivered.  They are also ignoring my emails and they have blocked my number so that I can no longer contact them.  I have asked to be refunded if the machines can't be delivered by the 31st of October, to which I have had no response.  The last update I received from them was the 9th of October and was only after I emailed them to hear what is going on.  Please don't make the same mistake as I did as you will lose your money, do not purchase any hardware from https://lmsglobal.co.za/

Why you people cant stick on buying into legit ones like Bitmain and into its legit resellers? Basic Googling doesn't really cost you an arm and leg.
People never ever learn until they would experience loss of money. Move on and take this a lesson.

I normally deal directly with the manufacturers such as Baikal, Bitmain and Innosilicon, however I only wanted to buy 6 and not 25 which is the min qty order from strongU

It comes down to pricing, payment option, quantity ordered and location mostly.

Location wise, it's not viable for everyone to order straight from Bitmain or its 'approved' resellers, mainly so when there are customs charges that could lead to a premium of up to 30%! It's much more convenient and cheaper for people to order hardware from a seller within their own country, but unfortunately, in this case it lead to people being scammed. 

The domain is just under 6 months old; http://whois.domaintools.com/lmsglobal.co.za Not an indicator of scam by definition, but enough to exercise caution.

Hi phillipsmit13 and Rose Gold Prop

Could you please choose to allow "messages from newbies" under personal message options.  It is about LMS.

Probably OP is up to the rebates he could get because maybe they were offering a good return when you deal with them. But that's just another story since the scam attempt is the real intention. And you were right, a simple google on where to find a legit seller will not hurt a thing. This should be a lesson to the future buyer.
