I´ve changed registered to DHL (I hope so ), also because I have only one PayPal bill for customs.
custom office next to me always would like to see the PayPal bill.
Registered Mail, two packages, could be a problem for me and customs with only one PayPal bill.
Worst case paying twice the price (VAT), each 19% of $111 would be $42.
So I think it´s easier, faster and not much more expensive with DHL, also DHL delivers the package to the front door.
Driving to custom office (20km) is about 1-2 hours (incl. waiting time), petrol allowance…
So I hope, switching to DHL worked, and I´ll receive my BLF GT soon.
Seems like the battery carriers are to long. I can’t get a
Complete seal on the tail cap when carriers are in. Does anyone else have this issue?
FYI they are in with arrows pointing towards head
This has changed at least in Finland. You just tell DHL that you want to do the customs processing yourself (self clearance, itsetullaus) and they’ll send the required information (warehouse ID, AREX MRN number etc). This will result in zero processing/administration fees.
Can someone tell us more regarding GT for NASA. Did NASA ordered this FL? Or was sent to nasa free of charge?
Will they use it on next mission to moon or mars?
Off-centered LED. Wondering why the hole in the centering ring is so much larger than the LED, does that not defeat it’s purpose.
I’m thinking that loosening and retightening the head might solve this, but I cannot get into the head, it’s on to tight, any suggestions?
The tailcap ring is also really tight, and someone a few pages back suggested it might be due to a pinched o-ring, but I am unable to unscrew the piece under the lumintop logo too.
Come on, You can’t just come on here and say something like that and not follow it up lol!!!??
I’m on the edge of putting a claim in anyway to protect myself. The team may ‘know’ Neal, but I’m afraid don’t - at least not enough to potentially lose $111 in some mix up or something.
Your comment would suggest there is a ‘need’ to put a claim in, like there would be no chance of our money back from Neal ?
Edit - all joking aside, maybe someone needs to sort something out soon regarding this - if our pay date goes past the point of no return with paypal, who is going to cover it if something goes wrong? (that’s a big ‘if’ i know, but it is there)
This in no way being nasty or anything like, certainly it is not a moan at the fantastic team (who work their socks off, thank you) - it is purely just to protect our money - which I assume you would all understand.
I think registered mail GT’s will go out next weekend. Most shipments went out on Saturday, and most DHL shipments are done, so registered is next when the new batch is ready.
‘I think registered mail GT’s will go out next weekend’
I appreciate you are trying to help here, I really do. Thank you .
BUT unless you know something is fact, please refrain from speculation (everyone) , it really is NOT helping anyone, despite the good intention.
Tensions/concerns are running highly enough as it is. :+1:
That definitely doesn’t look as close to the LED as the one DB Custom posted back in post 13277. I hope this is an isolated case and the quality control hasn’t started to drop off, that would be a real shame especially since there are a lot still to go.
