I ordered yesterday. My order also shows “Confirmed,Payed,Unshipped”, but I don’t know if that’s because I missed the boat on getting shipped with everybody else or just because the system doesn’t reflect the actual status of the order.
EDIT: just noticed that Ric is using E-package for US customers. That’s great!
sweet. I’m not in a huge hurry or anything… just wanted to make sure mine didn’t get lost. placed my first order almost two weeks ago. I haven’t even ordered 26650 batteries for the two lights yet from RMM.
Mine appears still unshipped. When will it be “shipped”?
Same here. Placed my first order nearly two weeks ago.
Just got my tracking nuimber
I to have my tracking number. Tracking numbers as a rule take a few days to update. The lights were despatched on the 7.8.14 or 8.7.14 depending on what part of the world you live in. The lights did despatch a lot later than I first thought they would be due mainly to the late inclusion of AR lenses.
Maybe if I did this again I would not allow any changes from when the group buy starts or put a disclaimer in the OP that changes may happen if there was enough interest. In this case there was a lot of interest in the lenses which took longer than expected to get made. I'm sure Ric would agree with my thoughts here.
I don't think it's that big of a deal, especially since Ric went out of his way to source some custom AR lenses and shipped via e-packet, rather than the slowboat method. The delay was slightly longer than anticipated, but the lights should still arrive pretty quickly, compared to other retailers. Thanks to MRsDNF and Ric for arranging this deal.
Depends which side of the International Date Line you're on. 
+1 on this
Like kids looking forward to Christmas, some of us are bound to be in a bit more of a hurry than others.
My order has shipped, I'm happy.
Hats off to both MRsDNF and Ric for getting this happening.
I for one am glad you and Ric were able to get a custom AR lens in the deal. To me, they really enhance a light. I have a tracking number too now.
Just got shipping notices for both of my orders! thanks MRsDNF and Ric!
I also got a shipped notification for my order.
Guys I’ll be purchasing the last light in about an hour PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE no one buy it, I’m excited it lasted, really want it just waiting on paypal to be ready, had to reconfigure some settings and it had to reconfirm my bank account…
That’d never work for me, for sure! Somebody would sign up with the forum and within 10 minutes of logging in they’d find this and buy the last one, even as I got my clearance! lol
Good Luck!
That worked faster than expected, purchased one (type A) plus AR.
If anyone didnt buy one / buy another one leaving it for me I thank you.
oh no, out of stock!
Why would you buy type A? You could always sell the extender tubes here if you didn't want them.
I agree Gj - much better to have an excess of extenders than a shortage.
Dude I buy and mod (sometimes WAY over the top mods costing >500% the cost of the light) so many lights now days that if I spent just a few bucks extra per light for parts I didn’t intent to use I would be blowing HUNDREDS of extra dollars I could spend on parts I actually need / more lights.
I’m a very thrifty BLF’r…
Yes I could sell the stuff but it’s not worth it, it’s not like I’d MAKE any money, probably loose on shipping too.
I don’t do as many lights for BLF members as people like Tom and Dale and Bucket and others but that’s cause its hard to sell lights to you guys, the vast majority of the lights I build are sold by word of mouth advertising to the Columbus police and fire dept’s and the franklin county SD, trust me when I say they keep me busy. Not to mention our 3 kids and my wife is the manager of a body shop and is working 50 hours a week so I have the kids all but a few hours a week when grandma will watch them, if I have something they can’t come to (like say when I meet sheriff deputies at their private firing range, definitely a plus lol)
I don’t mean for this to be a rant [really sorry], and I love this place, trust me if I could do all my business here on BLF and not have to lug 3 kids around to meetings all day (something you don’t have to do with an internet based business) I would love to be able to hook fellow members up on stuff all day long but it’s not practical and I literally can’t afford even a few bucks more on something I will never use. That’s also why at $30* this is my first Y3 even tho I’ve had a few guys wanting to see just such a light.
I almost bought it for you
