Purchased a used antminer and a hosting contract in 2024. The miner lasted about 4 months and now needs a new power unit. The repair costs more than the market value of a used miner, at $299. I asked to retire the miner. However, this forfeits the deposit in the hosting contract, which is 2 months of hosting or around $380. Thus, by purchasing a used miner with a hosting contract, for a total cost of $1200, I got 4 months worth of hashing. Rip off. There is no warranty on the miner or repair.
