48 states of USA excluding Alaska and Hawaii. Or as I read it: “everione outside of US, suck it”…
Oh OK, thx for explaining. I’m closer to Hawaii
hey… i wasnt trying to be rude… I have seen other people say “lower 48 only” or “USA” only… which was the only reason i said it… then when i saw the 32 dollars to send a 50 cent emitter??? i figured it was why people say USA only.
my new plan: where the package is going? its just an address i write on it at my post office… if your paying the postage anyways? i dont care if its going to antarctica. I dont discriminate.
now… as to why you would want a slightly outdated emitter? I can think of several reasons…
but, the 2 most important are? Its still a decent emitter, its NOS, and… how about having 20 CREE xpgs for 5 bucks + real postage… up until now, i have never sold anything here ever, i only buy occasionally. I just figured i shouldnt pass up the deal i found, i should pass it on.
everyone is always b!tching about all the fake CREE’s out there? I figured i had a temporary solution to that! real brand new CREE’s cheaper than dirt!
that was the plan, anyways… so far? in several hours, a couple hundred have already been spoken for, in several bulk and small-bulk orders… heck, for the price of a pack of smokes? you can stick a small pill bottle chock full of these things on your shelf… play with them later.
i just… thought it would be funny to flood the market with real CREEs, if only temporarily, as long as it didnt really cost me anything. How else is a flashaholic supposed to try to enjoy his laid-off time with fiddling around trying to make a light bar for my buddies side by side… i’m grabbing a nice handful for myself at the bulk price i paid? and the rest i cant possibly use? I pass on to everyone else to have fun with.
I need my head examined… I just ordered two T-H-O-U-S-A-N-D.
Welcome to my world… I do stoop-, umm, adventurous things like that often.
- I am hoping they will be de-domeable, hopefully…
Probably a bit warm for dedoming, unless you really want a WW (~3000K) thrower. 4500K is a quite yummy CT.
- i am hoping these will be cheap enough, people will want a bunch for multi-emitter LB swaps….
Decide on a final price yet? Someone mentioned 20¢ a pop, someone else 10¢ a pop, and I’m confused. Haven’t seen any firm mention of price.
How much for 50 or 100? Yeah, that’s like a lifetime supply for anyone (other than Simon, maybe) but it’s nice to have spares.
Shipping? Bubblewrap-lined envelope? 6buk snailmail box? Other?
Sounds like a good deal, though, tnx!

I thought that was phrased a bit rudely (no, not you). If you offered free shipping, conus-only would be fine. But as you said, if the recipient is willing to pay the freight, who cares how much it is? The only issue is that you’d have to do all the legwork to find how much to ship to X, Y, and Z, correspond back’n’forth, only to be told, “Naaah, too rich for my blood. I’ll pass.”. That’d kinda suck.
now… as to why you would want a slightly outdated emitter? I can think of several reasons…
Being cheap as dirt is the main reason. Buy cheap stars in bulk, line a piece of Al, and make nice under-shelf lighting. Or throw on some reflectors/TIRs and make a cheap lightbar. Go crazy…
I’ll take 30
Hey, relax. I hope you didn’t get me wrong. I didn’t plan to buy it because I know it must be very expensive to send it to my country. Besides, I still have a bunch of 6200K XPG anyway. In fact I’m supporting you to buy a nice original Cree because it’s a good quality even if it’s outdated. I asked about Conus because I’m not familiar with the terms being an Indonesian.
PS: If you’re interested in my 6200K XPG, I can send it some to you via Texas_Ace with my next shipment to him. It’s XPGWHT-L1-0000-00H51

Hey Guys…
I am not experienced at international shipping, lol. I have GOTTEN packages but never SENT one… member BOAZ here explained by private message that the post office “hides” a cheap rate to…
serbia, indonesia… probably most countries… looking like a 2.29 rate to ship a large envelope one ounce. (emitters are light, lol)
add the cost of a padded bubble-envelope to that? and its looking like it might be only a couple bucks to ship to countries i admit i have trouble finding on a globe…
I’ll take 40
If you can find any cheap rate around USD 2-3/ shipment, I’ll get a USD 10 including shipping.
I’ll experiment with underwater pond lights with them,
Thanks,
Clemence
Are you starting an interest list?
Please put me on it.
How many can I get delivered to California for $10?
As many as I can get for $25 shipped to California
Hi Sean,
Seems we misunderstood each other :laughing:
Check your PM please
Cheers,
Clemence
we’re good…
i waited
i got it the second time
thank you.
Got the packet. Surprisingly fast for the price you paid
Thanks, Sean
Would you ship to Germany?
How much will that be?
If it’s not to expensive, count me in for 50pcs.
Julian
as long as you want 50 or more emitters? 20 cents each
shipping, USA or WORLDWIDE… is running 4.16
i can only be paid by PAYPAL…
I’m selling at cost, which is obvious by the deal… so, i cant “lose” any paypal fees.
paypal fees (if any) get added onto the price.
i’m not trying to make any big money off of anything… i have to BUY the special padded envelope, and i have to pay postage. I have to cover (any) paypal fees, too… all while trying to sell a large lot of emitters, at my cost passed on to everyone else.
i’ve looked around? i cant find anywhere to buy 50 or 100 “real” xpg1 emitters, at anything resembling 20 cents apiece… going rate is close to a dollar each… I didnt mind tying up my money to get them, i just have to be careful and make sure i dont lose money on each sale, selling at cost.
and it should be obvious? but i will say it straight out…
if a BUNCH of us all? went and found ONE GREAT DEAL buying a thousand or more of something we all use eventually? and sold it “at cost” like i am doing?
we could then ALL buy almost EVERYTHING we all want? at really low prices.
I am considering a “giveaway” of some kind… whereby a lot of people, in order to try to “win”? will be “forced” to prove they learned how to reflow an emitter….
thats why i bought so many? i want to learn to reflow, and i dont care how many emitters i “kill”learning if it comes to that… i THINK my main idea of the giveaway?? would be to “stimulate” more people to reflow themselves… a lot of us just buy on stars already…
This is crazy cheap for such nice original SPECCED Cree XP-G. That’s why I bought them even if they’re outdated by today’s standard.

And then after you mastered the reflow. You will still kill more LEDs by dedoming, overdriving, etc….
Just like most of the vetereans here
