Do you think you will get your miner?
I say no, lets do a bet!

Do you know the past from Mr Volker Studier?
Call him and ask him if he was ever in jail!
Ask him if he was involved in the Jansen kidnapping.

Than think again why you should trust that small company without any proof or experience in chip design, claiming to do a better miner than the major players.
They could sell it like sliced bread, but they refuse to show any proof and sell instead with very high discount.
Why do they not try to maximize their profits?

They claimed a high number of shipped units, but no unit was ever seen in the wild...
account on ebay was removed

Not to defend yesminer, but from what i understood they are not the producer of the chips. The company that produced the chip to KNCminer is now selling to other companies (from what i understood, 2 more). This company is the proprietary of the design (http://www.alchip.com, correct me if i'm wrong)...AGAIN, not defending Yesminer, was just pointing out this fact.

It will need more investigation, but I wasn't aware that KNC subcontracted or bought the design of the chip.

Still, Yesminer are not doing anything to convince us they are legit, even if it should be realy easy to do since they are supposed to be shipping the units right now.
If miners were shipping since last week, we should at the very least see a few real pictures of the miners, maybe an unboxing video or anything that could confirm they shipped something to a customer.

So the rule of "scammers until proven legit" still applies until they run away with the money they were able to collect.

On a side note, as far as I can tell, Xircom, before the password change was the same guy who ordered from me in 2015, got a MAT excalibur hashing board fixed by me, and exchanged a few emails with me about different projects back in september.

And I trust him when he says he wired them a large amount for miners.

It doesn't make Yesminer legit or trustworthy at all.

I just hope he wasn't scammed like others or he'll be able to get his money back.
