Canceled - Mecarmy SGN3 Group buy?

I can’t vouch for anyone else, but I like the new Mecarmy SGN3 light. I don’t like the MAP price however, and I didn’t like the answer I got when I made an offer to buy on eBay. It looks like the only way I am going to get one at a reasonable price is through a Group Buy. My goal is a price around $30. I think it may actually be worth that. I am not convinced it is worth $42.90.

I haven’t organized a Group Buy before, but there is always a first time. So if you might be interested in this light on a group buy, either PM me, or post your interest on this thread. Once I see how much interest there is, I will shop the business with various suppliers and see who wants it the most.

I think even $30 is overpriced.

Looks amazingly robust! But agreed; I would not pay even $25

That’s one sexy light…but way too expensive for BLF!
Even if I had $43 to spend I wouldn’t bite…

I think 30 USD is NOT overpriced. 25-30 USD is a honest for this.

what does it look like? maybe people do not know the light by name

Cheapskates! :wink:

I have the black, would be in for another in green. Great little light.

$25-30 is definitely NOT overpriced. This is not a common tube light manufactured from a lathe. It has custom designed components and the choices available for this size and style are very limited, I also thought my PT16 was overpriced, but after using it for a while i know why it costs so much.

If the SNG3 was driven a bit higher, maybe around 350 lumens like the surefires sidekick I would get one for sure. But at 160 is on the low side…

I wouldn’t pay 15 for that.

Not worth $30

If someone get one of this and write on it Surefire (with the same characteristics and finish), people will say , wow! only 45 USD!…
Great design for a new brand.
(of course I talk about this because I have one unit and I am not talking for talking…)

For those saying what it is not worth, it would be interesting if also you added what you think it is worth.
Just curious.

I don’t quite see the benefit to this over a more compact AAA EDC flashlight, unless you just have to have the side switch. The integrated battery is a negative imo.

I’d still probably be interested around $20-25.

Lol, but…wrong forum…surefire is praised elsewhere :smiley:

wrong forum, I think you are wrong……this is my forum for many years, I am happy here.
GB or not GB, for me is not important, I already have this, and think I must comment my reallistic opinion about the honest price for the quality of this MecArmy.

I didn’t say it wasn’t your forum. The comment I made was about the Surefire remark that you made because there’s another forum that absolutely worships surefire products and doesn’t care about their expense. It was meant to be a joke…not offensive.

Actually the surefire sidekick is an amazing keychain light. You might think all surefires have crap performance and I will agree with you on all their products BUT except the sidekick. The sidekick feels extremely well built and the output really seems to hit 300lm. A friend of mine has one, and while I don’t think it is worth $70, it is no doubt an excellent performer.

Intrested. About $25

Canceled due to lack of interest.
