Amended and apologies. No links required, just product name will do. Thanks!

No problem. ;)

When is it?

IMHO: “Auction” does not equal “crazy prices”

“Auction” = crazy, frustrating mess that Starts with crazy good prices
and ends with a single winner and Many frustrated clients.

Crazy good prices for flashlights.

Does anyone ever take part in these deals? They hold zero interest to me and seem far to convoluted and time consuming and I wondered if it was a big thing with some people

Care to share some of those deals? (don’t post a link, just name and price)!
I had a quick look and didn’t find anything outstanding…

Nothing priced crazy good.

too much work

Well i’ll post a light

JETBeam DDR26 1000lm 4-Mode White Flashlight w/ CREE XM-L2 T6 - Grey + Black (1 x 18650)

Only if you put a lid on the highest price you’re going to take.

There are two kinds of crazy. One of them is not budget at all.


Thank you and noted

We will take about a week to see how the respond, if well if we do not get some respond on what people want.

Dealextreme will just chose 3 items of high value for bidding. Tentative timeline is every item is within 24hours bidding period

This type of “sale” does nothing for your business. You will get a few cheap deal hunters with more time on their hands then anyone else take part and the people with jobs and money will not be able to compete fairly. Those are actually the people you want as customers.

Why not post a 20% off coupon for LED stuff or drop the price of some of the flashlights/headlamps for a sale?

I’m just being honest here and trying to help. I haven’t used DX in a couple of years. Their prices are always slightly higher than other vendors and their customer service and shipping is below average. DX offers nothing over other Chinese sellers.

I don’t understand the negativity on this thread, being their company they can offer any deal they want. If the deal they come up is one i don’t like i will simply shop elsewhere.
I would be happy to buy the light i posted for $1, at a higher price i would have to decide if its worth it

We like giveaways (so thats acceptable advertising), most BLFers have dozens and sometimes hundreds of flashlights purchased at often regular prices, but we are unhappy at possible significant discounts?

Another one:

Soshine TC7G5 1000lm XM-L2 T6 1-LED 2-Mode White Light Flashlight - Black (2 x 18650)

Sold Out.

Where are the deals?
