Sorry if this is on the wrong place or whatever, but I’m looking to by a new miner preferably a KD6 but have seen so many scam sites, and others that are ridiculously priced.
I don’t want to hand over 50k and get scammed obviously so I need recommendations for legit companies, I’m in the Uk atm if that makes any difference.
It’s recommended to buy directly from the manufacturer if you can’t get what you want from there I have also heard eBay is a safer place as well. Apparently eBay will protect you if it’s a scam but I can’t be 100% on that…
I second baldguy83. Markup elsewhere is just the funk. You have to be persistent to source from the manufacturer most times, but it’s well worth the savings imo.
If you’re afraid of getting scammed, use a site that accepts credit cards and PayPal like eBay. That way you can document everything and get comped if something goes sideways. Just screenshot everything and video record the opening/use of the miner. I don’t think Compass Mining sells those, they’re USA based but offer rig hosting/collocation in other countries
Goldshell.com manufacturer is always your best and safest bet. Keep in mind they may add additional customs duties and tax based on the declared value they mark as. Most resellers will only declare value low to help with this and as a server to smooth things through customs but this is also related to the shipping insurance. Just saw GS direct adding a insurance option for full value ao6rix 1.2k additional. AKminer is legit as long as you have the real as well look up Charlie Lin on YT, he’s good. If you talk to Charlie tell him al sent you
Ak is legit, but there are lots of fake telegrams. Best bet is to use the confirmed/approved vendors on asicminervalue.com. And yes Charlie is now selling. hes small but just got my KD box pro for 5600 shipped!
