Q8, PMS SEND TO THOSE WITH ISSUES BLF soda can light

The first batch was finished on Sept 7 and TF said they were going to do at least 3 batches in a row. Each batch takes 1 week (I think). So the early part of batch 2 might have already started shipping. They may be starting on batch 3 in the next couple days. I would guess that all 1400 would be finished and shipped within the next 9 to 12 days assuming no delays and they can maintain making 500 a week.

I think the Miller might know in more detail, but this is what I remember from past thread posts.

I just got confirmation all open orders will be shipped this month (late, but before October ;) )

:beer: :)

about the time gap between batches:
i guess that the manufacturer gets the parts for final assembly also from other companies.

and our price would be significant higher when every supplier would send the ordered ammount of LEDs / boards / srings / lenses / whatever in small packs of 50-100 just to have some lights go out constantly...
that would multiply logistics extremely!

please stay calm, relax and look forward for the parcel to arrive!

there is no contest who gets the first, no price for the first review ;)

its just in your head - do not spoil your fun with trcking # and shipping times :)

Iā€™m guessing these recent order changes from back ordered to shipped are lights from the early part of batch 2. Donā€™t you think?

Maybe, my second is still not shipped, and tracking of the first (placed order hours before anybody else so it literally is the first order) is a no show on 17track and such. Yeah the tension and all the posting made me look againā€¦sigh

Pre orders now at 1408

when the stock arrives the system looks to the open orders one after one according to the time it was placed into the system.

THEN it sees how it will be shipped (slow boat or plane)

you cannot jump the queue by paying extra, that would not be fair...

Wow, I wonder what will happen after the group buy when the price drops from $99 to the more normal price and regular folks start buying them? There might be another surge in sales. :slight_smile:

Could be,
but there is already some public code available which lowers the price down to USD 46,50

my order status is ā€œCONTACT CUSTOMERā€

what in the world does that mean? o.0

I just received my 30Qā€™s which i ordered an hour or two after my Q8 (i think first 500). My tracking still doesnā€™t show on banggood or anywhere i have looked though. Hopefully my Q8 is not too far behind.

Why donā€™t you ask BangGood? ā€¦ There is a chat option and you could have an answer in 10 minutes from now maybe.

Ordered. Thanks! :+1:

Good god everyone. Stop harassing customer support about your Q8. Take it easy, your Q8 will appear on your doorstep at some point. It has been in development for over a year, a few extra weeks are a drop in the bucket.

Thanks Heaps.
Preordered one.

I donā€™t do pre-orders, ever. The only reason I placed this order was because I thought they were available already. Iā€™ll give it another week and then cancel and move on.
I have held of buying a couple of other lights because they were too close in specs to this one.
I wonā€™t do any more business with Banggood, China warehouse. Iā€™ll continue to buy from the USA warehouse which I have done without problems.
Now to continue Hurricane clean up.

Noticed this night that http://dpdgroup.hk where I could find my parcels tracking has moved to a ā€œdomain parking serviceā€. Iā€™m curious whatā€™s going on with DPD. Status of my parcels is ā€œWaiting to fly awayā€ for several days now.

Yeah I found that with my sc4 order, been waiting to fly for a week and now the tracking is dead!

Added to a no eta backorder Iā€™m not impressed with shipping at the momentā€¦

Ordered thanks, pre-ordered
shipping date 10-10-2017

I know it's confusing as heck, but it should ship by the end of this month, maybe sooner - think the 10-10 date is just to cover a worse case, or CYA thing, or didn't get updated.

At 1416 orders place now, but could be a mix now of BG non BLF pre-orders, but I'd think those #'s are small.

Ordered on September, 07.

Have to wait for the next run. No Problem, at the end, weā€™ll get a great FL. Price is like a gift.

Thanks to all, working on it !

They tried to send it with Air Berlin ā€¦. :wink:
