:person_facepalming: Oh Crap, did not know that. But future purchases will definitely have it. thanks for the tip JasonWW.
I did not add ātrackingā as well I ām flying blind.
If there is an issue you will get a refund from PayPal. I donāt know what Jason is talking about but Iāve never needed to āactivateā anything.
If you think about it that would be pretty absurd, to be denied a no-show claim because you didnāt activate something that literally everyone would of course want.
As I checked out in Sterling I missed that BG had defaulted to some sort of priority air shipping at extra $$ which they seem to do all the time now :smiling_imp: - oh well not going to touch the order now it will only go wrong!
Lets hope Thorfire churn out more lights soon, because Winter is Comingā¦
Perhaps some things have changed over time or that the guidelines have not been universally enforced?
Either way I donāt think anyone will have much of an issue if they make a claim that a product sent from China didnāt arrive or was broken on arrival.
I donāt think there will be much shipping issues anyway, or at least we hope.
I ordered two Q8ās in the first hour, and the third one a few hours later. The first two show shipped, while the last one still shows on back-order until october, so I assume that Thorfire indeed has an actual first batch ready to ship.
Priority air mail which was a free option. I added the insurance option. Tracking says āshipment information sent to FedEx.ā For all I know the labels could sit for weeks
Did you add special shipping? I have only one light not shipped, and it's the only one I paid an extra $10 for expedited shipping, hoping I could get an early look at the quality, run some output tests on, initial impressions posts and pics, etc. Figures...
Wondering bout that. Maybe the expedited shipping is an issue right now, as they crank them out. Or maybe if ThorFire really is doing the drop shipping, special shipping is a problem for them? Not sure if I understood how that was gonna be done.
The extra shipping charge will get it to you in, perhaps, 2-3 days faster, or not at all depending on various factors. Instead of 7-12 days it is 5-8 days.
There is only so much expedition that can take place in such logistics and distance for a charge of āonlyā $10 (to USA).
What i am guessing is happening is that they have already packed the lights that are due for expedited shipping and are just waiting on the courier to go pick them up. Probably tomorrow morning.
