HaikeLite MT03 & MT07 Group-buy Closed

I received an almost exact tracking # except mine ends in 38—it says shipped by DHL post—I PMd Alva Monday—he asured me the numbers will track late this week—I can’t find a shipping company that says this is a legit number
Anyone know the time limit to file a claim with paypal

Well I never did get a reply to my inquiry, but you mention that Alva said end of week and even assured you so I’ve no reason to doubt that,
I think personally that we should all then believe end of week or for me anyhow even next week and I would not be surprised if my shipping confirmation was just lacking info most likely due to inexperience and probably the frantic rate at which they are attempting to get everything shipped, seems logical…?
Rick mentioned EMS so I tried that companies tracking and for the first time I didn’t get this is an invalid number like so many other companies I tried, so that’s encouraging to me.
Lets just try and give them some time and not jump to speculations or become needlessly worried about most likely being short handed perhaps and probably not expecting the response they got from all of us,
Seriously, the offer they made to me was one I could not ignore, so I jumped quick and I would suspect many did precisely the same,
I’ll bet they were shocked at best by the number of orders received, so lets do give them some help and not worry about a lot of nothings.
Just my thoughts…

I carefully tracked a Shocker once, and watched it all the way to delivery to some address in Florida. Wut? That guy got my light! Turned out tracking #'s got switched - I got my light like the next day. I'm watching batts I ordered from PA - not that far from here. Seen them come to a L.I. post office, but not my town - bout 20 mins away. Sat there for a day, then next thing it's in JerseY City, and again, tracking stops.... Ugh. Anything and everything can happen.

DHL does use 10 digit tracking #'s btw... Might not show though till it hits the states, or dest. country.

Paypal gives you 180 days now to file a claim. It use to be 45 but they updated recently. I just searched the PayPal site for it.

But it is Christmas season. I’m sure China has millions of more packages then normal destined for the USA and worldwide about this time of year. I’ve also had GearBest tracking take 3 weeks to start tracking

Mine finally showed accepted yesterday and was processed through today, so at least it’s finally moving. Now I’m sure I won’t see anything for a couple of weeks until it gets into the US.

I am very happy to let everyone know that I just received a notice from PayPal regarding an update on my shipping, the message reads as follows

So something saying the shipping companies name and “Shipped” is great news to me anyhow,
It mentions an expected arrival date which is most likely just a form message so I have no expected arrival date but it is nice to hear all that anyhow, so probably 3 weeks or so, typical shipping.
So whether or not our friends at Haike have been reading our messages this evening or coincidental I have no idea I am very happy and do thank Haike, and really wanted to get this to the group here ASAP.

I do hope this is helpful and good news to others as well…

I just wish Haikelite could at least give us a reply in this thread so we know they’re still around…

I got a “shipped” notice from paypal too. Tracking # still doesn’t work, but some news is good news.

As much as I didn’t want to buy one, Bronte made regular-ish updates, even sent build pics.

I feel more optimistic—Today I received my order of BLF 348 —- same deal a 10 digit tracking # that never tracked,even this morning—The crazy part it looks like it shipped from California—It’s got me wondering if the shipped bulk to the States then re shipped

Good deal Keithd, that PayPal notice to me was instant relief, but also just to say and it was mentioned here some posts back, that it would be nice if Haike would actually learn or ask how GB’s are generally done and what most of us expect to see which is keeping the OP up to date daily, preferably.
You know talking tracking numbers and all that, now that I really think about it, I have had probably 70% trac numbers that don’t do anything or never track and just show up so really rather used to that, and that is what often makes me forget I even ordered something most the time and does always make for pleasant surprises like the Brinyte B168 CREE L2 U4 and 2 SolarForce clear case I got today, geez ordered them from GearBest back early Nov. and completely forgot, nice light by the way, well lubed and is a great mod light way under powered but good quality and no gun mounts now to keep my eye out for pill deals, just looked at the price at GB and they’re asking $40 … insane, I paid $17 somehow, I don’t remember, didn’t remember it was even coming, but talking Haike lights, those I pay attention to, mainly because every time I put my wallet in my pocket it feels rather LIGHT, no pun, really light like about two C notes light.

Edit: that BLF348 probably came from their U.S. warehouse or part of someones drop ship program, I’ve had stuff that I thought was coming from China and look at the label and see it came from some country I’ve never heard of before, hit Google and find out it’s some island nation down under somewhere with a population of 16… wow enterprising sorts for sure…

Well... This was a little bit on me. I was asked to run the GB, but was a little hesitant, so they went ahead with it. Yea, would have been better having one of us do it, but really dunno if I would have had the time - pretty bizy.

These guys are legit though, but little disorganized. I've pm'ed with them a lot leading up to this.

Did not receive anything from PayPal, I emailed HaikeLite few days ago but didn’t not receive any reply till date. 7 days since I receive my tracking number and still shows invalid. Getting a little concerned here.

I see that HaikeLite is online on this forum occasionally but didn’t not bother to reply any of the aboved concerns.

12/01/16 HaikeLite sent me my Tracking No
12/08/16 paypal sent me the same Tracking No.
today 12/09/16 just showed accepted from China Post.

Nice, maybe the shipping company is overwhelmed with Xmas round the corner. Hope I receive my info from PayPal soon.

I just received a tracking # for the name engraving… :weary: And the tracking number for the light still does not work.

Has anyone received theirs from the group buy?

Don`t panic, its on the move.

Some customers informed us that their DHL tracking # is not working.

Today we got a bad news from the shipping company,which is at this month DHL is even slower than some Registered posts.
Most DHL packages got stuck at HK airport for 7-10 days…

So most parcels by Singapore post / E-packet / NL post is on the way to destination , While DHL parcels still got stuck at airport.

Malayzia post has abit delay too.

Hi.
DHL was at my door today, but I was’t home. :rage:
I suspect that it was the package we all are waiting for, but I cant confirm yet. !!!???
They will be back tomorrow.
The tracking number used by the DHL (I called and checked) is another number than the one I got from HAIKElite.
Yesterday the shipment was picked up in HongKong at 1437 and they was at my door today at 1026, so when
“shit hits the fan” it moves fast.

Received my MT03 today with batteries from DHL.

Looks good, batteries are charging.

Tracking number from Haikelite and Paypal never did work.

Got a text message from DHL… that tracking number worked.

looking forward to lighting this thing up:)
