I love the ones from Amazon, and I got 5 more from them now and upgraded the battery, LED, and driver. And the zoomie feature makes it the best of both worlds. I understood I would be gutting them after the first, that’s why the Banggood hosts looked perfect. But that was a miserable disappointment. Answering your question, I already knew what I wanted before I discovered BLF, I just needed a trusted where.
I am normally a happy person, I guess the recent politics in the news make me a little sensitive to foreign companies thinking they can cheat me like this.
I’m not sure what’s in your collection and I don’t mean to be condescending. But after getting the blf a6 - orange peel reflectors will be all I use at work (great spill, semi blended hot spot but kinda throws too!). The d80 gb I’m looking at will probably go camping/ hunting with me and one thing I’ve learned is that zoomie’s are good for the garage. So that’s where my aspheric types will rest waiting with their smooth beam to be used by an amateur mechanic. The others are far more useful to me in most other situations. So if you haven’t got any suped up non aspheric lights you may get hooked! Have a good night……
edit: I lied because this will always be in my work van as long as it still works. They quit making them……
Good customer service needs recognition.
A wrong item issue was resolved by Banggood satisfactorily, absolutely no BS, from first file to conclusion….in 18 hours.
I’m impressed.
Does your Confirm Delivery button works? Before china holiday it was working okay, but afterthat i cant mark any order recieved……well, it was hella convinient to mark whatever you recieved, especialy if you have lots orders
It doesnt work for me with both IE and Chrome browsers
Well its being changed at some point, before there was a window that thanked you and confirm delivery button became inactive , now a small shaking window pops up telling you that you have been told abouht the delivery , yet the the confirm delivery button is still active afterthat and empty of course
I confirmed delivery using the mobile app 48hrs ago, just scanned the barcode with my phone camera. Worked fine, but it looks like they removed the game associated with delivery confirmation, not that it was really worth playing.
Edit- I just tried on an old order using Firefox on my pc and it worked fine, the order confirmation system that is.
its not about the game, its just i have many orders lately and its was very usefull feature when it worked, now i have to type down tracking unmbers of orders that i`ve recieved in a notepad file in order to follow whitch ones i got and the rest
Order placed 10/30
Order shipped 11/3
Order rcvd 11/18
15 days in transit, 20 days from click to buy.
Paid $1.30 for ‘Standard shipping’ got a twenty digit tracking number which none of the tracking web sites recognized, but BG could at least tell me that Flytexpress had picked it up.
A quick heads up on recent dealing I had with Banggood.
I discovered Banggood a little over a year ago, since then I have purchased stuff worth over $2000 from them.
Last month, after reading the replies to a thread on BLF by a member who was asking about the most convenient bicycle light holder, I went ahead and bought four Fenix ALB-10 Bike Flashlight Mounts AF02 from banggood, one for myself and three I was hoping to give to my grandchildren as Christmas presents.
The order total value, including shipping was £36.36 ($55).
What I received from Banggood was four Olight X-WM02 NEW Generation Magnetic Weapon Mounts, that cannot be used as bicycle light holders.
After exchanging several emails with Banggood over a period of a week, which were replied to by several Banggood staff members, Banggood has decided to give me a whopping %20 discount on the items they sent me, which I have not ordered and have no need or use for.
Banggood also had the audacity to suggest in their email to me that I should sell the items they sent by mistake on Ebay, to re-coop my losses.
I do fully understand that mistakes can and do happen, and wrong items are occasionally sent out, what I can never understand is this cowboy attitude that forces the buyer to pay for the mistakes of sellers like Banggood, by not sending to their ccustomers what was ordered and paid for, and for forcing their customers to become unwilling resellers for them.
Ordered two Thorfire flashlights from Banggood. Paid for a tracking number. It took only 7 days to reach Chicago. Not bad. The big question is: Can the USPS get the flashlights to me in less than 7 days ? I am only a few hundred miles from Chicago. A few orders have taken 10 plus days to travel the few hundred miles. Time will tell.
Just checked. I opted for standard shipping from Banggood for an additional $1.30 per order. I placed two separate orders for the flashlights. $ well spent.
EDIT/UPDATE: Banggood issued me a full refund, no questions asked.
Hi guys, I don’t mean to double/triple post, but I thought I should post here just to document my current situation.
I bought 4 Meco lights from Banggood that were advertised at Cree XML. But they sent me lights with LatticeBright Leds as confirmed on the “FAKE CREE” thread. Hopefully this gets solved properly. I don’t want to file a Paypal dispute before giving Banggood a fair chance to solve this.
Actually I noticed on my last incoming package it stayed at the international airport 8 days. That’s not USPS’s fault, our customs agents were probably just running behind on checking packages.
