A60

Please let us know about your experience with colorapple, they come up alarmingly regularly on google shopping searches, I’ve just never seen anyone have a buying experience with them yet, thanks for taking one for the team. :bigsmile:

Will do.

Did it ship yet? Just trying to get a sense of the service with these people.

Received the following email from Bestofferbuy today:

So now I’ve had to reply to request a refund, which will probably take a few more days considering how useless this place ultimately seems to be.

I see things have not changed with B.O.B, makes me wonder if they ever had this light at all. Not a good way to treat first time buyers or to get more buyers…
they get an AVOID rating……

Exactly. It was indeed my first order with them, and I wont try to shop there again. Who wants to order from a site that offers up products they don’t have in stock, haven’t had in stock for quite some time, and don’t expect to have in stock anytime soon, if ever? I mean, how hard is it to remove a listing in such circumstances?

It’s absurd.

This is exactly what happen to me from them and this was 3-6 months ago, like they couldn’t have stocked them by now or remove the listing like you said. They probably never had them to begin with…

Best offer buy have cancelled three or four eBay bids of mine a day before they end, I suspect they did not want to sell at the price I was winning at and got upset no one else bid. Definitely a company to avoid.

Would you friggin well believe it, this last place I tried for a jacob, (colorapple) has just emailed me to say they are out of stock and refunded me.
What the hell have I got to do to get an A60??.

I went to order from colorapples a couple of days ago only to discover that there was no “add to cart” button in the listing, so I figured you must have bought the last one. Guess not.

All of this nonsense made me think that the A60 might be disappearing for good, and I really want one, so DX it is.

Ordered it a few days ago drom Deal Exttreme (DX.com)

Hope you have better luck than I did with DX Cainn, I bought a $50 torch off them, it arrived DOA, they ignored every email I sent them, it took Paypal to make them refund the money.

I’m not too concerned about such things in this case as I’m planning to mod the A60 anyway. As long as it’s physically intact, I’ll be happy enough.

Besides, I’ve had no negative experiences with DX so far. Really pisses me off that you can’t change many of your own account details though, such as your email address and nick name. It’s retarded.

Just a heads up. I ordered 3 of these on 09 Sep. from DX.com As history shows that the prudent buyer only has 1 or 2 items per order i ordered them seperately. On 11 Sep I have all 3 items shipped form them. So apparently they have them in stock. Just FYI. :-)

I ordered my Jacob A60 from DX about 3 weeks ago and they shipped it out 3 days after I placed my order and I received it early this week.

Looks like I’ll have to eat my words and try DX again!!

Don’t worry megabeam. DX still pay the price for their often sub-par customer service, and a last resort purchase from you wont change the fact that they’ll have to lift their game across the board to win back many of the regular customers they once had.

Just pulled the trigger, lol, just hope they don’t about this time, at least my money is safe with paypal.

My A60 has now shipped. Lookin’ good DX :slight_smile:

Six? Wow. Must be an interesting story behind that.
