the coupons either need to be stackable or worth at leat $500 per d3

yet another slap in the face

yeah....forgot about that 'slime angle' likely they are only worth $150 off max (1 coupon, 1 miner unit only)

(will re-read blurb on this ..but bet it is how it works)

You can only use 1 coupon per product.
So no I cannot get a free S9. If I wanted to use all of my 10 coupons I would have to buy 10 S9's !!

OMG, is it really so? Shocked

Why you can't combine them ?

yep..Bitmain is just playing 'mind games' with us IMHO. They got a mess of complaints....felt they had to do something, for meager PR reasons,

so they did this....hell.....it is more or less deliberate, in my view, just to put us 'customers' from their monopoly..in our place...

Also, look over the products you are getting from Bitmain....are they really, really NEW...I've heard reports of mis-matching fans that look

like replacement fans, differing labels from the supposed same batch, etc

My friend's view on bitcointalk, is that they are planning to get their mining OUT of China...esp with the hydroelectric rate increase that is being

touted by various provinces...and/of course, the nervousness about wtf China might do with bitcoin and other cryptos...Bitmain has already announced

mining halls in USA. So with that in mind are you gonna MOVE your equip from China overseas, or simply sell your stock from your current data halls,

and fill your data halls overseas with new equipment, simply for logistic reasons.....

anyway, look at your L3+ stuff.....if it doesn't look spanking new, it likely is not....

Also, if the above is the case, expect a hell of a lot more of Bitmain Toasters to hit the market.....no lag on equipment under the above scenario

like sh*t through a goose...especially if LTC and scrypt pow coins rise in price in relation to BTC and BCH.

Mine like hell boys and girls, but I myself am holding out for equip after the Chinese New Year and just a HODLING LTC as much as possible as long

as my ROI'd miners hang together

Anyway, my view (I could be biased because when LTC went from 4.15 to 20 bucks and up, www.eastshore.xyz literally said they yanked
my 8 miners off eastshore's truck at the distribution house and took the stuff back in to use on their Bitmain data hall....and Eastshore had to give me and my partner
credit...(took them a month but they paid all the BTC back...eastshore that is) boy, was eastshore beyond pissed off ..if nothing else I can vouch for them, not that
they feel all that comfortable ordering in mass from Bitmain anymore...from what I can tell from their website since...

So if Bitmain can do crap like that to tried to use such equp and stop seg witness for LTC (which they eventually agreed to) they damn well can be slipping out used stuff,
IMHO, so watch for it
