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

i have not received tracking information from the last batch - asking me will give you no answers ;)

also repeatedly sending the same mail for 3 weeks nearly every day “where is my gt?!“ does not ease neals work (and blocks my inbox as well)

Neals PayPal is still blocked, Lumintop want to get rid of the stock ...(https://m.de.aliexpress.com/item/32857004396.html?trace=storeDetail2msiteDetail&spm=a2g0x.12010611.0.0.58b91c17zMdI0r)

every alternative to Neal would cause a significant higher price :(

he is desperate to find a way for the remaining groupbuy participants to get their Light for the nice price.

Your patience saves you $$ ;)

So that was my last Neal’s Deal’s, nothing more with neal and lumintop for me….

I maybe lost the first payment but I found better to lost the first payment than receive a damaged flashlight :confounded:

I understand that.

Thankfully I got an email stating the tracking numbers for my lovely Giggles.

I deleted it because it can cause stir
The thread is too heavy and I do not want to leave it heavier yet

Later when the thing (and I also) calm down I will publish a report, maybe there will be a new thread, so that each one draw their own conclusion

I had to open an account in FB to find out about some I’ll also publish it there

PS. The email addresses that appeared were commercial

Selling through alixexpess, is this a joke?

Excellent.

Good, glad yours got shipped & is on it’s way to you. :+1:

They are very impressive. Almost shocking when first seen in person!!.. :wink:

A “giggle” is almost an auto response…. it was for me anyway. :smiley:

so if you pay full price you get it earlier than people for months on the list?

Why cant a company like Lumintop handle the payment?

Hopefully this message from M4DM4X will be a word to the WISE!

  • Patience is gonna save you money…
  • Lack of Patience is going to cost you more money….

THAT…. is pretty straight forward. :wink:

I received the head of GT about 3 weeks ago. Packaging was wet and almost completely destroyed. They had to repack it in my countries post office. Still waiting for the tube and batteries. I never reviewed any tracking number, but my order was still on its way. I don’t mind the waiting, but I don’t like the fact that the most expensive light I have ordered is in package without any protection (just a thin paper in front of the glass). Luckily the head looks like it’s fine. I have made at least hundred of orders from China and this had to be the first one with wet package and poor packaging.

I just think that it’s sad for the hole team (those who have but so much effort to hole project), that shipping for this great light cannot be handled properly.

If you ask me imho, I smell some BS in the mix! I’ve been contacted by Lumintop on FB, and this guy Leo said to give my email address and Shirley would contact me about purchasing the GT’s! I’ll report back when I get the email message!

Another thing, that to me, is more BS about this supposedly lawsuit with Neil and Levi was why the transactions from PayPal had been frozen? I mean come on, this has absolutely NOTHING to do with a PayPal account! Such garbage! :confounded:

Different color emitter?

afaik that Wholesale price ($165) is meant for shops and resellers usually...

i know Lumintop delivered to Sky Lumen (bussines client) and asked him to sell for 265...

this groubuy is way behind timeplan (for a lot reasons) and Luminto has to pay bills....

they agreed to wait with public sales until the GB has ended
now one could ask:

  • ended, as in closing the subscription list to get the nice price?
  • ended, as sent the original 555 (or the extended 1000? 1500?)

I can understand they need to sell whats on stock.
But i also see its frustrating to see other people get theirs first (at least you can smile knowing you paid much less)



All people who have paid should have their light on the way now.
the remaining people get the good price and it looks like the witing time between payment and shipping the light will be very short :)

as soon as Neal has his PayPal back the groubuy can make a big step to its finish line. :)

You sure about that? lol

Hi Martín,regarding ” all people who have paid,should have their light on the way”……the tracking number of the GT sent on 7th of february it still shows “preregistered,pending of deposit” and nothing happens, is my light shipped? Why doesnt show any changes in all this time? Why in all these weeks i cannot receive a proper answer if the light have been really shiped or not? How many other weeks i need to wait? I have paid the light on 2th of december,i understand i deserve an explanation that never arrives and nobody is willing to give me

Neal wants me to pay another $ 45 for the shipment.
I do not know what to do.

How can you pay more if his paypal is locked and cant accept payments?

I hope so

Nothing is known about mine and for now Neal’s answers are unacceptable,
You received a copy of the last one that he sent

So, not all the people who have paid have their light on the way

PS. Before this, have you already paid for the shipment?

“This groubuy is way behind timeplan (for a lot reasons) and Luminto has to pay bills….”“”

Do you think the “lot of reasons” are we ,the members of BLF who made the payment more then 4 months ago (in my case) and have no clue when/if i am ever going to get the light ; the same thing like cells bought through m4dm4x site on 17th of december and payed shipping separately so I would have them before the GT arrives and at this moment i Haven gotten nothing? Please,name the lots of reasons as I don’t mind at all……
