[PART 1] Official BLF GT Group Buy thread. Group buy officially closed! Lights shipping.

If the good hard case is only 20 , ill definitely go for it.

Please, put me down for second - I am 334 in the list.

So I quite possibly missed it, but is DHL the only shipping option? I agree that tax evading is not nice, but at the same time I’m not sure if I want to cough up another extra 40-50 euros :frowning:

There are DHL and an alternative shipping option.The alternative ships in 2-parts so 2 parcels.
You get to choose which shipping option when doing the final order.

Rick, TA has made a clear post HERE

There are a bunch of these comments though

Yes it is also in the OP
It in case of something not being clear it is good to ask of course!

Alright, thanks!

Will the light be listed online with the retail price ($249) when the GB light is shipped? Because for sure, DHL will pick that price for taxing.

I think you’re right. That happened to me once. But if the light is shipped in 2 boxes, the content can be named flashlight parts. Maybe that won’t have to be listed by LT. In the case that everything that is shipped has to be listed for legal reasons, it could be listed with a really low price, like $14. But with the label “sold out” or “discontinued”.

List has been sorted and PMed to The Miller.

Done.

(Sorry, I had to go to work to pay for my flashlight habit. :slight_smile: )

The Miller is leaving blanks in the “core” list. (See #249, #313)

I am not including the “blanks” in my sorted list. If I did, ‘blank’ would be taking up one of the coveted top 555 slots.

So basically the “sorted” list will be like the 1st list on POST #3. Where blanks are not counted and 2nd lights are moved beyond 555??

Both the 1st list in post #3 and the alphabetical list in post #3 will be updated.

Blanks are in the core list (post #1) but not in the sorted lists (post #3).

2nd lights are moved beyond 1st lights. The transition between 1st lights and 2nd lights is currently between #620 and #621.

All payments after review of retail version.

Man i am so confused with all these lists. All i know is im #251 lol

@ Mr. Scott
Just to be sure I understand correctly.
The first list in Post #3 is … the official purchase list??

Yes or No

:smiley:

Thank you… :wink:

I have been trying to keep up with all the posts in here but with all this talk of taxes, multiple payments, different shipping methods, cells bundling, short tubes and multiple lists I am totally confused as to what’s happening.

I am assuming it will all be explained and make sense in the PM we get sent but can I just clarify a few things for my own understanding to make sure I don’t stuff something up during the payment process.

1) We will get sent a PM to make a $14 payment via PayPal to Neal. In this payment we put our BLF name, address and spot on list. I assume the spot on the list is from the core list so for me it would be #82?
2) We will get sent another PM within a short period after making the $14 payment to pay for the rest. This period is yet to be confirmed
3) Where does the short tube, different shipping options etc. fit into all this? Will there be a cart system where we just add the extras before making the final payment?
4) Fortunately we don’t have to pay any import taxes on items <$1000 here so that is of no concern to me.

I apologise in advance if this has already all been explained somewhere, I did try to look but was unsuccessful.

Thanks!

@LSX,

From what I understand

1) Yes, yes, but you are #79 not #82, due to people before you wanting multiple lights/withdrawing. I believe the order is in The GT List.

2) Something like this, I believe they are trying to find a way to mass PM without having to individually contact everyone.

3) I believe we can somehow make a choice, either on a lumintop hosted page or otherwise? Otherwise this is just administrative and I’m sure Lumintop/the GT team will have a solution.

4) :slight_smile:

I don’t believe there is a short tube option, maybe in the future.

You’ll specify shipping option in your paypal note. DHL or two separate boxes.

Thanks for asking, as I would also like to know.
