From what I have gathered, after all was said and done, they lost money on the $115 lights in a big way and didn’t break even until the final batch of lights in the group buy. There were jobs hanging on the line for a few months if things did not improve and the boss was NOT happy, which was understandable considering the amount of money on the line.
They seriously underestimated the shipping costs for the lights along with the reflector issues and other unexpected issues upping the cost of the light much more then expected as well.
All that said, it does not excuse them for not taking care of these issues, I have been very vocal on that, these issues should of been taken care of months ago and it makes no sense in the big picture to not fix these (fairly minor in the big picture) issues.

VRT, Dustynell and FreeMagenta never answered my PM so I don’t know about them.

I have paid (158,22:money_mouth_face: BLF GT 11.12.2017. I have got that batterytube, but still missing the headpart of flashlight. I have sent message to marketing lumintop and also leo lumintop. Nobody never ever aswered…
I am very sorry to hear this, I just let Leo and Neal know about this although I do not expect to hear back from them until after the holiday.
I would try sending leo@lumintop.com another email about this now, he has a bit more leverage over things then he used to after I got pretty upset with the boss a few months ago.
I think the boss is trying to keep someone between himself and me lol.
