One person, today recieve BrandNEW S5 from 5th batch... look (right blade)

That kind of pisses me off. You pay for something you expect it to be new. WTF? I bet that right miner has been used for at least a month. It is a completely different design too. Isn't there some kind of consumer protection that you are expected to receive NEW and UNUSED hardware? No where is it stated that the hardware is used or refurbished. Looks like Antminer is trying to slip in used miners. That's a whole level of low and just bad business practice.

Can Bitmaintech share with us why your loyal buyers are getting used hardware?

It's probably from one of their data centers. They mine with them for a while until the machine paid for itself (not long since cost = manufacturer's cost) and then resell at full retail.

So no cares? Everyone here just talking about fans. I think they are missing the important information and a little delusional.

you think that you are the first one who posted this? most people don't care much (maybe a little). If you had a DOA miner or miner with some difficult to reproduce ailment, then it matters. A bit of dust? people here are mostly (not completely) indifferent to this.
