    I bought into gigawatt but all their miners are sold out

    My question is where can I buy a good miner

    Im not a experienced miner, I assume gigawatt's miners are over priced any way

    where do you intend to mine, how much does your power cost and
    if your going to mine at home do you have a very understanding partner

    what is bitcoin kings website

    and this gigawatt, is it $1 per watt per year or month or forever

    There are many scams out there in the bitcoin world and many
    traps for the unwary

    cheers

    Sorry Elissamaha, I could not find a bitcoin king that sells miners.

    I would be very, very carefull of buying cheap miners, and have
    never heard of them, by the way

    You have listed that you think you want a Ls3+, look you either
    want a L3, L3+ which are scrypt miners that mine LTC and other
    scrypt coins.
    Or you want a S9 that mines BTC and other SHA coins.

    It doesnt matter what price bitmain sell their miners for, at present
    the wait on anything is many months, you could have bought a
    L3+ for around $1300US a couple of months ago from them, now
    on the secondary market they are mulitples of that, same with
    the S9 and T9 miners, you will probably end up losing money
    if you pay the current ebay prices for these miners

    Do not buy anything unless you can confirm who you are buying
    it off of and know what you are buying.
    Do not buy an S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 or S7 to name just a few
    they will not be profitable unless you have free power which you dont.

    I am not trying to be smart but
    I think it may be a better idea, just to buy some coins

    cheers grant

    AAHHH, I get what you have done now.

    You have bought tokens from cryptonomos.

    I didn't see this on gigawatts website when I first looked

    How many tokens have you bought?

    You will probably not be able to buy miners for the
    prices listed on gigawatts website, (none in stock),
    the reason there are non in stock, is because they
    are currently about half the price that the same
    miners are changing hands for on ebay.
