Hi, I wondered if anybody had bought a used G1 Mini miner from Aliexpress and what their thoughts on it were?
I suppose I am wondering what support and Warranty I would get on a a used machine?
Warranty on a new one is only 180 days - so you would get nothng beyond that.
I wish I’d got some more at $299 from ipollo before they jacked it to $399. I got mine direct from ipollo. The G1 mini’s have been solid. The V1 mini’s have been less reliable.
My dealings with warranty at ipollo has always worked out in the end, but it’s not that easy. I had a V1 mni classic plus nearly out of warranty that I could still have got repaired for a price - luckly I got a warranty repair on that. Although the freight still costs an obsene amount to get it there.

I wouldn’t buy off of Ali express if they ask you to make payment outside of the Ali express payment method. I attempted to buy a Ka3 about 2 months ago for an unrealistically good price, I payed with my Visa, and the seller demanded that I retract my payment and pay with bitcoin. Sorry dude. Not gunna happen. Anyway, best of luck!!
