This is kind of interesting:

Note: Due to threats coming with army rangers with specialized "hardware" for local pickups, the option for local pickup is disabled and all orders cancelled. Say thanks to the people on bitcoin forums.

They initially said local pickup was canceled because it was too popular.  The new reason makes only slightly less sense.

And what reason would a company have to take the worst possible pics of their product?  You know, at funny angles, cropped in the middle of the product, and most importantly not showing any of the parts that customers would need to see to find some scrap of evidence that it's not a scam?  It's not a trade secret, if they actually shipped a single one to anyone, the customer is free to take those pics and post them on the Interwebs...
