Go ahead and file a dispute now anyway, which will buy you a couple of weeks to work everything out. You can mention that in your dispute. Even when the dispute period ends and you elevate it to a claim, there is still another week for them to respond to the claim. So you have at least 3 weeks for them to receive everything and give you a refund. And you may be able to ask PayPal for an extension if they seem to be making progress (I don't know if that exists, but it seems reasonable).

Sounds like abuse of the paypal system to me.

What refund? They are sending him the correct item without even waiting for the old one to arrive. I doubt paypal take lightly to preemtively filing a claim now just in case there is a problem in the future.

Also there is no reason (as is often happening here) to go rampant with paranoia and distrust when hundreds of people just on this forum has bought from KD without ever beeing ripped off.

Davx: You don't know if it arrives. But If they didn't want to pay for registered mail (unstandable since its 5 times more expensive in Europe than in HK), they can't prove you DIDN'T send it either. So don't worry so much...

Just because KD is responding favorably doesn't mean you can't file a dispute in order to extend PayPal's protection. The fact is the issue hasn't been resolved until the customer is happy and neither party owes the other anything. That isn't going to happen before the 45 day limit. The dispute costs nothing, especially if it resolves itself favorably. Even if you have to file a claim, there is still time to drop the claim and say it has resolved itself.

+1

Davx is only trying to get what he paid for. To call this abuse is totally wrong.

Not only abuse but also irrational paranoia and fear. They sent or will send the correct item.

I never lost one cent from DX or KD and I didn't need Paypay to hold my hand or comfort me either.

Not only are you accusing Davx of abusing PayPal but also that his is suffering from paranoia and fear.

You must have learned too much from CPF. Im off.

Go for it Davx. You have every right to use the PayPal safebuyingprogram. Its made to be used when

you dont get what you paid for. No one here know for sure if KD have send or will send anything until it

arrives in ones mailbox.

It is free insurance. And PayPal wants you to use it because they want you to feel 100% safe when you use their service to buy stuff. And the sellers want you to use it too because people who feel safe when they buy have one less obstacle to buying. Everybody wins. Filing a dispute in this case is far less slanderous of KaiDomain than the slander of calling someone paranoid, fearful, and abusive.

As a follow-up to my earlier post where I mentioned KD had left out a driver from an order. Although they didn't notify me that the item had been sent, I received it today. Thumbs up for KaiDomain for believing me (they didn't even make me take a picture of the driver I didn't receive) and sending me a new one.

I ordered this. http://www.kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=11342 and

got a 40 mm reflector instead. KD promised to send the ordered item. It came today.

Thumbs up for KD.

I'm very satisfied. I purchased 2 of the (fake) Solarforce L2m's with the XML T6 drop-in, and a couple of glass replacement lenses for my M*glites. I placed teh order on 5/18. Recieved an email on 5/20 advising the items had shipped. The package showed up in my mailbox today (6/9) ~ 21 days shipping from the vendor to Texas, and all items in good shape/perfect working order.

I have been ordering from KD for a while with no issues. Today I received an order of 5 Nanjg drivers and 5 XM-Ls for some projects I am working on unfortunately I only received 3 of the 5 emitters I ordered but they stuck 2 extra drivers in the package. I e-mailed them around noon and threw in the prerequisite picture before they even asked. I got a response about 6 they are shipping out the 2 emitters in another order that was in the packing stage and I got 2 free drivers to boot. Great job KD.

Im new to the flashlight scene, But have dealt with several retailers in my short time. And let me say that ordering products from China will try any mans or ladies patience, Thats if they even ship in the first 3 days after placing the order.

I just placed my first order with Kaidomain.com about 3 days ago, As of yet it hasn't shipped. But to be fair 2 of the items did say 1-3 days shipping time. I sent them a message today threw their internal website message system and asked what was the hold up? They said my order will ship tomorrow. They answered that message within 6 hours iirc so that was good.

Whats odd is they have had a tracking code assigned to my order for two days half implying my order shipped and the status just didn't update. I cant find anything to complain about really as im finding this to be par for the course in ordering overseas.

They do have good items and alot in stock and no 7 days shipping holds like DX does to acquire your order from vendors. So far im happy and will order again.

Ill put up a rating when my order shows up and is inspected. But if i had to rate them now id say 3.5 stars only because im taking into account and comparing them to other Chinese retailers. If it was against an American retailer id give them 2 stars from what im used too. But those ratings mean nothing until my order is in my paws and ill come back and edit my post with a final rating.

Hey guys.. anybody knows how KD handles different orders played on the same day? Want to place 3 orders instead of just one... because of custom problems... Would be really bad, if the ship them in a single package

Every package that i have received from them was marked as $15

Just order and pay(!) one at a time (with some time between) and they will send them individually.

Placed my first order with them on July 29th. (Was just for some spare clicky switches) They shipped on August 1st and I received it on August 9th. Wish that I'd found them a LONG time ago...and that they'd answer my "price match" requests, but am very satisfied and will gladly be doing more business with them.

I placed three orders last night. SF Sales, Manafont and Kaidomain(the "U2" xml dropin is less than $11). SF Sales sent a tracking number and said they would send it today. Manafont says still processing so we will see about that one. On the KD order, I forgot to sign in so I sent an email asking if the order was received and status. The email was answered within minutes. I was informed by them that it is national day and they have 7 days off, the items will be delayed by at least that time. Seven days off for national day? Should be National week. I have to Google that.

The 3- 18 v one? I must get one of those.

those 3-18V are 2A to the led, not bad :)

they sent me a wrong item (bike flashlight holder) and promised to send me the right one (camping lantern enclosure) this week, back to waiting

No, it’s the 3.7/4.2 one. I bought two of them before when they were $18. On one of them the emitter fell right off the star while I was using the light. I have to think that was a fluke. Hope so anyhow.
