private sellers are well trusted forum members

the private sellers will be identified to buyers before sale

They are buckrodgers and Mindtrip.

~~I will contact iBelink about this thread right now.~~ DONE

Ok so can Buckrodgers or Mindtrip chime in and confirm this? That in itself seems like the best method of response right now for the community.

Kilo, I appreciate your diligence on getting these answers, I understand your intentions here are in an effort to protect everyone involved.

The community has been made aware. If you are good with paying $6750 knowing that there is built in cost for others to get free miners, then no need continuing down the path of some massive expose' as you believe there is still value in that price.

I, for one, will never look at a group buy the same again though.

This is an interesting perspective and if I understand correctly, here is how the math breaks down.

$5000 per miner x 100 miners = $500,000 + ? Shipping costs

$6750 per miner x 76 miners = $513,000

Scenario: So from here I see a potential scenario where someone arranges a private group buy for 100 units that they can't pay for. The facilitate this group buy by marking up the base cost of the miner to a higher dollar amount and only sell enough to cover the total cost of the purchase plus potential shipping costs for the 100 miners, in this scenario that is 76 miners. They then keep the remaining 24 miners for themselves.

I'm not saying that's what is happening here but it seems very questionable.

To be clear: I'm not pointing fingers or accusing anyone involved here. I just see what could be a potential questionable scenario.

If Buckrodgers and/or Mindtrip are indeed the private party facilitating this, can either of you please clarify?

I'm interested in one of these given some outstanding questions are answered; Thanks.

On top of all of this smokescreen we still don't know if these things are currently in manufacturing or if this is vaporware or anything.
