Black Friday hype or scam?

Seriously, stop hunting for those crazy deals online. People have snagged OLED monitors that usually cost around $1000 for just $400, simply because they’re OLED. Dishwashers that are normally $500 can be found for $180, all thanks to these sales. I even saw someone grab an RTX5070, a $700 graphics card, for $400 during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Sure, electronics and home gadgets get marked down a lot, but when it comes to ASIC miners, it's a whole different story. How many ASIC miners have you even seen on sale for Black Friday? The few I know of barely cut any real price like $100 off something that costs thousands. Let’s be real, ASIC miners are no joke; they're super valuable. A buddy of mine who's into crypto mining called me earlier, but the line was wonky. He had some "good news" to share, and I figured he wouldn't just mess around since he usually doesn't talk nonsense. Later, I called him back, and he mentioned that ASIC miners were cheap because of Black Friday deals and asked if I was interested. He sent me a link and man, it was SCAM written all over it. Be careful out there when you’re looking to buy ASIC miners online. You really can’t cut corners with these. If a deal looks too good to be true, it probably is. Always buy from the official websites of the manufacturers or reputable third-party sellers.

Yeah, ASICs are not toaster ovens, you don't get "doorbuster" pricing on machines that basically print money until they're obsolete. Any site screaming 25-50% off on current-gen gear, no MOQ, pay with crypto only, and "ships worldwide" is almost always either taking your coins or drop-shipping you something ancient that should be in a museum, not a rack. Your friend was lucky you've got a scam radar that still works after Black Friday. For anyone else reading: if you can't verify the company registration, talk to real customers, or pay via a method with some recourse, you're buying a lesson instead of a miner.
