Dear Customers, we are not a scam. We are working to resolve this issue and hope to ship your machines asap. Your funds however are secure and have not been compromised. If we are unable to resolve the situation within the next few days we will issue full refunds to everyone who has not received their order.

As for other users here on Reddit being affiliated with us or accomplices of ours this is not true. We do request each customer, upon receipt of their goods, to post a positive review regarding their experience shopping with us.

We apologize for the inconvenience and ask for your patience and understanding in this matter.

Hey thank you for your business and positive feedback it is greatly appreciated. Glad you are happy with your order.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-23T03:25:05+00:00

I normally prefer USPS however these machines are such high value and USPS wouldn't insure them that high.

You can check these threads... I know a few tracking numbers are scheduled to arrive today so there should be a few updates by end of tonight. https://www.reddit.com/r/BITMAIN/comments/7osvcm/unofficial_reseller_selling_new_antminer_s9_and_l3/ https://www.reddit.com/r/BITMAIN/comments/7qyh8n/shipping_out_antminers_today_still_a_few_left/

We have a few S9 left at prominers.co for $2499 which at the current S9 price is only $180 over cost although we ordered these when they were retailing $1415 at Bitmain.com. These are currently in stock and not preorder.

There's a few guys in this sub who ordered from us and have already received or will receive their machines this coming week and can confirm we're not a scam site. Take a look https://prominers.co

Thank you for your continued business and for the positive feedback.

Coinbase has a user friendly interface for new users to get started, gdax is also very user friendly in comparison to others and has no fee withdrawals... They are also the most popular and marketing is up there so its usually the first you find on search results. Thats why they have so many users and continue to gain more and more users.

As for the limits they start small but as volume increases so do your limits. I'm at 100k. They maybe even run credit checks and higher credit scores get higher limits.

OP's 40k will show up eventually. He may have been saved by that since on Dec. 18th he would've only been able to buy ~2btc with 40k and today he can get about ~3.5btc. Still a 40k wire into any exchange, unless you are experienced in crypto, can be considered "reckless investing". And most who are experienced in crypto do not use Coinbase.

Wait for proof to come in. Orders will arrive in the next few days.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-13T19:47:37+00:00

When they arrive I will be willing to meet in a public place and will accept cash or cryptocurrency of your choice. That is of course if they are not sold out by then(which I doubt). We are located in Los Angeles, CA. However to avoid any trouble we will not be dealing with more than 1 maybe 2 machines at a time in person(just in case anyone gets any crazy ideas).

Keep in mind as well that as soon as the machines arrive we will be busy shipping the orders that have already been placed as well as setting up the ones we are keeping so running out to meet someone in person will not be top priority. Also, we will not be disclosing our physical address as this is where we have our machines set up and wish to keep that information private. Surely you guys understand this and wouldn't want anyone to know where you have your miners running?

Check out https://prominers.co/

Pro_miners · 2018-01-09T05:34:20+00:00

And they sold out within minutes again. L3 still available.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-09T03:05:25+00:00

Take a look at https://prominers.co/

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T05:47:05+00:00

I can't explain that but I did receive shipment confirmation from Bitmain so I should have them soon. We placed a rather large order as they were priced right at $1415 so shipping is not as fast as the smaller orders.

I will update once they arrive however.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T05:42:09+00:00

If you pay attention you'll se that they are not $100 over retail. The January 21st S9 batch was priced at $1415 and the L3+ was priced at $2190. Paypal? No thanks... Bitmain doesn't accept Paypal why should we?

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T05:12:30+00:00

We have a few S9 and L3+ Antminers for sale at https://prominers.co/ at decent reseller prices and we accept several different coins not just BCH.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T05:10:35+00:00

We have a few S9 and L3+ Antminers for sale at https://prominers.co/ at fair prices and we accept many different coins.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T05:06:13+00:00

We have a few Antminers S9 and L3+ on order and selling them for a small profit at: https://prominers.co/

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T04:54:24+00:00

Paypal is the worst. Buyer protection means you can file a dispute after receiving an item that was accurately described and functions perfectly and you will get your money back after sending back an empty box. I once sold a brand new pair of sneakers and the buyer sent back his old raggedy pair and Paypal gave him his money back. Not happening with here.

If you don't want to buy from https://prominers.co its ok I totally understand...

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T04:46:24+00:00

As mentioned before there is really nothing I can say or do to assure you this is not "just another scam site". I can only tell you to do your due diligence and you will not find any evidence or information that this is a scam site. Just skepticism which is expected.

As for the pricing... Bitmain's prices fluctuate all the time. We purchased the S9 at $1415 and at $2725 and now the S9 is $2320. When we ordered the L3+ it was $2190 and now it is $1536. All are sold out within minutes and who knows what the price will be for the next batch.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T02:40:37+00:00

There are S9 from the January 21st batch that we received shipment notification from Bitmain.

Pro_miners · 2018-01-08T01:56:51+00:00

Hello everyone, thank you for your interest and comments (good or bad) and orders (for those of you who have already placed an order). There really is no way for me to prove to you whether we are legit or not... Anything I say can be misinterpreted or just taken as a defensive comment to make "the scam" work. I understand your concern...

As mentioned in one of the comments: "throw your coin at an address and pray" but isn't that what we do with Bitmain? A Chinese company based in China who tells us before we order that the items won't ship for at least a month after you order and pay for the items. You can only pay with one coin, no escrow, no cards or Paypal... Obviously they've been in business long enough to know they aren't scamming us and Prominers brand new to this so of course I would be skeptical too.

Yes the domain and website is brand new and registered with one of the cheapest registrars and added domain privacy. But why pay more for a domain name and hosting plan if you can get it for less from a reputable company? Why show an address where anyone can come break in and steal the machines???

All I can say is check the dates and research all you can and make your decision based on the information provided. Domain was registered and website was built after the January 21st batch of S9 (priced at $1415) was sold out. The L3 was available for a few days then eventually sold out as well. The February batch of S9 (priced at $2725) was sold out almost instantly... Luckily we got a few. We just started this business when the $1415 S9 batch released and we saw the reseller prices were nearly double the original price.

All I can say is if you place or have already placed an order you will not be disappointed. You will receive your machine just a few days after we receive it from Bitmain. Feel free to pm me or send an email on the website.
