this! I would never buy from someone other than Simon! Any issue that may come up (and so far, there were NO issues), he will communicate with you and work things out. He is the best.
I have been shopping at Simon’s store for many years now and never had a problem so far. very quick shipping, good packaging and the items are always perfect.
For any Convoy product I would only buy at Simon’s store. It wouldn’t be smart to shop elsewhere, unless you have some fundamental reason not to shop at Simon’s. Every item I ordered was on my desk within a few days. Fascinating.
I like how Simon (or his staff?) pack the emitters in little plastic containers so nothing can happen during transport. I think only Kaidomain are the other ones doing it like this. Shipping was always registered or with DHL intl. very good service for the prices offered to us. I also never ask for our BLF discount. Just buy it.
It’s a gamble with BG being they have some lights in anyone of their warehouses. But Simon’s products evolve and some iterations are superseded. Might not get the latest version shopping elsewhere.
Average shipping time from Simon to my place is around 10 days. /w tracking and via DHL, I think. It is the only shop I use for flashlight needs currently.
