Hey all!
This is my first post here!
Can you share some trusted places to buy a bitcoin miner from? Over the past years I've explored Avalon miners, Bitmain miners and Futurebit miners.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my hands on a budget miner. Whenever I decided to dedicate some time and look for miners, I always ended up finding the best miners are already out of stock.
I don't want to spend over 5000$ for my first miner. Also shipping to Europe would be great.
Whenever I ask for recommendations to buy miners from, I don't seem to get any valid answers. Also I'm hesitant to use second place markets, because my expertise of managing nodes/validators is not yet very mature
so I don't want to get scammed. I've seen reviews from the past for bitmain and aavalon that they use it before they send it to you which also let me down and I didn't order from there ( one time there was option to pre-order and there were some miners in stock). Any recommendations are welcome, I can't even imagine how I can build a miner myself, since I can't find valid tutorials.

Thanks in advance
