17Track says my packages arrived in The Netherlands!
Woohoo!

Is that the ‘Consignment received at the PostNL Acceptance Centre’ status?

Exactly!

Hey guys,

I was among the first 555 but i have no email or tracking number or any hint of an arriving GT yet…|
Should i be worried?

I wouldn’t be so sure not to be worried, i was in the 2nd batch of “supposed to” lights, paid and all, and i’m not even on Neal’s list, and have been told to “just be patent” and “no worries, you’re on the list”… even after my Early concerns were “passed off”…. & yet no, i’m not. i’ve been ignored or passed off at every mention of MY concerns so don’t be surprised if you are as well.

Neals paid list is not complete. I think it only goes up to Dec 10th. So there’s maybe 150 names missing from it. It was helpful to a lot people, but not everyone.

Also, your not helping anyone by coming on here and posting your fears and doubts and telling others they should be worried as well. I can assure this group buy is not a scam to steal your money. It’s just slow. Neal will get you your light or else your full amount will be refunded if that’s what you prefer.

Hi all,

Any UK members looking for a brand new BLF GT…

Selling mine. Arrived yesterday, taken out, checked all working as it should - will come packaged fully as it was new to me.
Comes with the brand new batteries it arrived with - everything as standard from factory.

PM me if interested.

Post #18232 is a German looking for one.

Malaysia might be a middle shipping point. China to Malaysia, then Malaysia to Greece.

They probably did that to either reduce shipping costs or something to do with customs. Maybe reduce or eliminate customs fees?

Really, who knows.

The GT is made in Shenzhen, so we know where it originally has to come from.

I used mine for a short while last night & must admit that I also didn”t think that it was that warm of a tint, well to be honest not warm at all compared to what I was expecting.
I didn”t have any other lights with me however to compare the tint to so next time I will take a couple of other lights with me to compare tint.

[JamesB]

The tint is fantastic, of course i wouldn’t mind a bit more red/rose for better CRI but the color temp is perfect for my taste (everything doesn’t look lik shades of grey as is the case with cool tints) and helps cutting through bad weather as a bonus.

I’m not in a big hurry for my BLF GT with batteries originally they said the middle of January it’s now almost March any updates on when they will ship I think I was #957 but it would be nice to get an update about our shipment maybe once a week. Thank You

No, there are still about 50 orders not shipped and the last batch that was shipped the tracking numbers were not sent out. Martin has a list that he has been sending to people but we are not sure how accurate it is. It was obviously done in a rush. You can find the link to it in the OP.

TA, after LT, Neal are back from holidays, can you please ask them to first send out these 50 orders.

Thank you for your help.

Kind regards

Just received mine (registered) in two small boxes. But I'm a little bit shocked!!

@ first I was thinking it was a big mistake, because of there small size and because they where totally whet and damaged!!

I could peel off the whet carton with my bare hands like butter and was very surprised to see the GT head totally free/loose in the whet damaged carton, without additional protection!!??

What where they thinking while packing those boxes!!?? That is totally crazy!! This is the complete opposite as in those pictures with those nice protected boxes!!

The other small package was also whet/damaged and contained only the tube with battery holders inside, wrinkled in simple plastic foam and on the bottom a totally whet manual :/
