Sofirn Q8 group buy (gb closed, but try PM to Sofirn for discount)

For those in Australia I believe Aliexpress has started charging GST. So add 10 % to any price quoted.

What is GST??

GST / VAT

Goods and services tax - 10% was added to my order

So Aliexpress in China collects the GST, and then transfers the money to the Australian government?

Yes. Amazon US stopped selling to Australia for a short period when our government bought in the 10% GST on any online purchases. Amazon US now sell to us again and also collect the 10% GST on each sale.

To that is an administrative burden for any foreign webshop, except the really small ones. I hope that delivery is faster because less packages have to be checked.

GB are still tax free :slight_smile:

interested Amazon US

When I logged in and reopened my cart on my Tablet it only gave me the option to use a credit card. I don’t exactly remember how I did it but I was able to close the pop up and select Pay Pal as the form of payment.

Hmmmm…… Ok thanks guys. Debit it is then

Remarkable conclusion

Gold plated contacts in budget flashlights we would see!

I would like to purchase one Q8, from Amazon in the US please.

I have always used Paypal for the Sofirn store - where it shows payment method there should be an option “change” on the right side of the screen - pick that and you should see paypal option

Thanks shirnask! I’ll try that

If you post here you should be good to go. The front page list has not been updated since you first posted. Last name on list was from 9/4. You signed up 9/5.

We are still waiting for the Amazon coupon, so no big rush. I don’t even see it on Amazon US yet.

Cool, thanks Jason.
Just ordered a set of Samsung 25S cells for it. :smiley:

interested amazon US

I updated the list. It contains interest in 126 lights now, of which 56 from Amazon US. So Sofirn may already send an extra batch eastward.

Is the Sofirm Q8 has built in reverse protection? The battery I ordered are all unprotected samsung button top. I have flat top but still works with blf Q8. Sorry if this is mentioned somewhere. Thanks :slight_smile:
