Yep, to US shipping kills any sort of battery deal from GB China. I was set to order yet another 4 LiitoKala 26650's but when shipping doubles the cost, discounts are useless. Ordered from BangGood - free shipping.
However I was still able to get the Samsung 30Q's form GearBest's LA warehouse w/free shipping - hope they expand their stock of offerings there. The qty 8 30Q's arrived in a nice protected box - no problems.
Same here. Shipping kills good battery deals at Gearbest. Secondly, shopping at Banggood becomes more pleasant as there are no surprise shipping costs; it’s free. For a minor additional fee I can have batteries shipped express within 9 days as well.
Received my Lumintop Tool Ti from the recent sale. I had ordered the Nichia version. The box that arrived is marked both CREE and Nichia. The tint looks more cool white and nothing like my Tool Copper Nichia. So looks like the Tool Ti I received is the XP-G2 version and not Nichia
The worst part is that Gearbest offered me $10 in my “Gearbest wallet” as compensation and $1 off a future order. Purely insulting and in direct violation of their own published policy which calls for a full return or replacement. Just insulting.
I opened a PayPal claim because I’m not going to deal with a company like that. It’s starting to seem like they shipped everyone the wrong product and are just making everything worse with terrible customer service and lack of damage control or apologies.
