Ok... I took the bait and purchased two 1.2GH/s miners for claimed delivery on February.
I am making the assumption that they are legit based on the endorsement of bitmine.ch who I'm also assuming is legit.
I also believe that bitmine and AMT may deliver ahead of hashfast and cointerra based on an earlier tapeout date.
Finally, looking at the AMT product line, it's clear that they have existing products that appear to be based on the Bitfury chipset.
These folks appear to be resellers/assemblers for Bitfury and Bitmine, so it is not like they are conjuring up their designs from thin air.
So at this time, I am giving them the benefit of the doubt. After all, what other options are out there?

The options I looked into at the time I made my purchase (back in Oct):
1)Cointerra was promising delivery by mid January
2)Blackarrow was and still is promising delivery in March
3)AMT was promising delivery mid Dec.
A 4th option was another company called VMC but I felt they were too pricy so I never looked into them.
I went with AMT and prepaid back in Oct strictly because of the time factor. However, after sending out numerous inquiries via email and leaving numerous voicemails (since around Thanksgiving till now), I was convinced that there was no company and they took my money. But I JUST came across this forum and after going through this thread it seems like it's a legit company. I just wish they would return phone calls or simply post updates on their website. Or maybe a targeted email update.
It's really scary when you drop a bunch of money and after a couple months the vender will not return any correspondences!
By when are you supposed to receive your equipment? -thx
