Same here.
Couldn't resist the C3. Even got greedy and took the Coupon1 3% discount to get the price down to $5.52. It's got to be too good to be true. My worry is that China will start making flashlights from used nuclear containment vessels.
I was even greedier :) Ordered two C3, learned from previous deals when I always ordered one and than it was hard to give it away.
Is it the same light as this one https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/1260 tested by Budgeteer except that is not SS, but silver like on the picture below?
The SS ones and the aluminium ones are completely different creatures.
They are about as reliable as 30 year old Ducati motorcycles.
But are easy to fix.
No idea why, but I love them.
I own something like ten of the things.
So you recommend them at such a price? Which version is better: SS or aluminium? In the description it says:
| "Material | hard oxygen stainless steel body, aluminum light cup and glass lens" |
You’re greedy? I ordered 4 of them! 
Eight anyone? I can already see the "sorry, this item is out of stock" e-mail on the way.
The picture of the front end of the light looks odd, like there is a bezel of some kind on the front. On my very similar Aurora light, the stainless head has a built-in lip around the inside of the head that holds the lens and reflector in.
I hope there isn't any "Kinks" in the order. I just ordered one and hope it's not to good to be true. I think that Don likes C3's and even likes the SS model better than the aluminium. I have an aluminium one that went south and this will be a nice replacement. It even has 5 modes. I'm excited can you tell? I don't know if I can maintain this level of excitement for the three weeks or more that it may take to arrive. Anyone had any experience with this company? 
I went for 3. :P
Soldout seems near. I want them to be SS tough!
I just had to order one C3 for $5.52. By the way, how many websites does focalprice need? They have focalprice, their wholesale site wsdeal, discoverybargain, and now lazerpoint. Did I miss any?
I ordered 1 for $5.52 yesterday, the current status is ‘shipped’. I really hope they ship the SS version!
Had to order it for this price, I get a Big Mac here for that sum, but the light lasts longer 
Their live support is a bit weird.
I just opened the live support window, and seems like I can view a chat of somebody else...
Though not a very interesting one.
I'm in a dispute with focal /wsdeals over SS c3's https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/126?page=2
they've lied on their descriptions and sent me a bunch of junk instead of the ligtht I ordered ... they've had this C3 at a giveaway price on their site for a month and I've called them every name in the book and they haven't changed the description yet .. call me greedy but i ordered 25 (a month ago ) ..I was gonna order 100 ..obviously i'm glad i didn't ..I have no idea who or what Lazer point is ..I am hugely burnt and couldn't give a damn about stainless steel C3's from any company if they were giving them away ... good luck to you all if it leads back to focal .... RUN.
I ordered 4. It went through the processes and now states Shipped on 18/05/2011.
Let's hope it's ss version.
Sounds like they just sent you a whole bunch of copies of the wrong light (and a stupid showerhead light, awful). The 10% off thing is just torn from the little red book of Chinese customer service; it's like starting a letter with "Dear Sir". I've gone ahead and made a .pdf of the web page and downloaded their pictures of the C3. The thing that disturbs me is the brownish tint of the stainless, like these have been in a fire or something. I'm hoping for the best and hopefully you can get your issue worked out with them, though for such a large number of lights, they probably aren't going to be as cooperative and may insist on returning the lights, certainly at their expense.
Hah! It sounds like we both had the same exact idea to cover our butts with this deal. I made a PDF of the page too in case they try to change the description later. I just checked and mine is still in the packing stage. Did you place your order yesterday as well?
Hey quick question for anyone that already has a C3... what size o-ring would fit the groves in the center of the main body tube? I want to install GITD o-rings like Trustfire uses on the F25. It makes for a sweet looking torch. I'm guessing either 18mm or 16mm.
I have only the alu version - the 18mm are a little bit loosely, the 16mm (I have only the orange not the GITD) fit well.
There are a lot of different SS C3s and clones out there. I have a 98mm Aurora SH-035 branded one and a 93mm Ultrafire C3 branded one. The grooves in both are quite shallow and a 16mm ring is going to roll about most annoyingly. To get them to stay in place you'll probably have to go to q4mm but you are going to break some getting them over the flare of the body tube. I'd use 16s and some glue to hold them in place. I'm not fond of the styling of the F25 anyway. But tastes vary..
I'd go for much thicker rings than the usual Chinese ones - they'll be more trouble to get on but stand a good chance of staying in place once attached.
This is what i ordered 25 of : http://www.wsdeal.com/LF654S/Genuine_UltraFire_C3_CREEQ5WC_5_Modes_190LM_900mA_White_Light_LED_Flashlight_Torch_Silver.ws
This is what they sent 25 of instead and want me to pay shipping 25$ back to them
And another 25$ to send the right item .. after a month of them jerking me around are you surprised i don't trust them to send me the right item ?? i don't want to hate anyone ... these people make you hate them .i wish i was face to face with them and could solve this quickly . a screwdriver buried into their thigh might work well .
