A close personal friend who helped me get into GPU mining last year took the plunge into ASICS. He went with Innosilicon to mine SHA256 sending them slightly over 1 BTC for his first ASIC rig which was supposed to be NEW latest production.

After transfering BTC to them, he didn't receive anything and began emailing & calling. All he got were these "You be patent [sic] - it take time shiped" which could mean anything -- but they had no tracking number.

After 4 months of calling & writing, they finally sent an email with a tracking number, which meant they were lying about it taking time or being "shiped". It took 3.5 weeks to arrive in California, for a total of 5 months after he transferred the BTC to Innosilicon.

The unit he got had a streak of brown dust going through the tube between the two fans. It was obviously used for quite some time - probably the past 6 months. It ran for 2 weeks before it blew smoke out the fan and died.

Innosilicon's response was "wartei [sic] no cover smoke burn - you ship us pay fix firstlly" Translation: You're a sucker, send us some more of your bitcoin!

So lessons learned:

1 - they lie
2 - they take your BTC (ever wonder why they don't take Visa?)
3 - they send you used junk they no longer want, probably because it is no longer profitable to run
4 - when it burns up, they want more money to fix it because their "wartei not cover smoke burn"

To sum it up, it's easier to just erase wallet.dat rather than deal with these idiots. By the time you get your hardware, it is obsolete and worn out from use making money for Innosilicon

Guys i'm so sorry, but can you link us the sites from which you made the purchases ?

Aside, they might be right with what they said but most users of this community won't believe or take their claim serious because they didn't provide the right proof to back what they said along with the screen shot showing the email which contain the whole conversation.

I think this is the point. But what about you, what do you think about Innosilicon?
