I was waiting for the gray, but I bought the O’pen of the GB GB. They have put it to back order.
I’ve frozen other purchases in GB until O’pen is sent. I’m so sorry, but I’m losing confidence.

I sure don’t enjoy the ‘discontinuance’ of OL’s Olight pen gb.

However, being a ‘veteran’ of failed gb’s due to MAP here in BLF, namely the Niwalker Vostro and the Crelant 7G10 with Doingoutdoor, the Nitecore EA41 and JaX Z1, both with Gearbest, I can’t help but feel sorry for the vendors and other organizers here in BLF of past failed gbs due to MAP or some other reason only known to the manufacturer.

Personally I can’t blame the vendors. I believe no vendor would ever want a gb to fail. In my past experiences with failed gbs, it’s always the manufacturer’s side that cuts or shuts off the deal, leaving the vendor with no choice but to cancel the gb, regardless of the status of the gb’s progress.

I understand but … For every purchase canceled I lose money for taxes and fees.

That’s true, but we cant’ fault PP/credit card companies too for they give us protection and we use their services for a fee.

Things like these are unfortunate realities unluckily.

Yes.

In this case the guilty is who does not take precautions … If the seller does not takes precautions the buyer should take. For this reason I’ve banned BG.

O-L says the lights are being shipped anyway. So it would appear that the OPen issue is working itself out. :wink:

We’ll see, I guess. I had to sign up with GB to make that purchase. If it goes through, then perhaps I’ll be buying other things from them as well. If it doesn’t, well….

As an aside, a friend of mine ordered this Courui D01 from this buy and had it sent to me to fix up for him. So we’ll see too if that one goes out in a timely manner.

Oh yes, OL’s Olight pen gb is alive again.

I hope the gray version will materialize this week too, all in a timely manner as hoped.

This is the reflector of my light (tried to clean, got worse):

One of GB offers: “We will resend you a new one and you need to pay us half amount of the items to cover the compensation.”
I don’t want to pay any extra money, so I asked for a half-price refund via in-store credit.

I don't understand... The Gray one is now listed at $31.04 on a timed special here, only $1.05 more than the Group Buy price? the gbcourui code still does not work on gray.... Seems like you can order the gray one now for just a buck more, so maybe this is it? Maybe this is the deal they will have for the gray version? Seems silly to just save $1 to wait for the GB offer.

Sounds like DX's trick of putting an item on sale just to find out it's out of stock, backordered, and get refunded!

I stumbled across the exact same page yesterday while looking for information on UV emitters, thought it was quite a conicidence with this special price going on here. I got to it by clicking a link on a dealers page, but don’t know where.

What defects did it have before you tried to clean it?

It think that details in the Gray version (price, etc.) in their website is an erroneous posting since the gray is still not available as late as yesterday and that is the reason that no coupon code has been given until now.

I’ll try to check it out later and bring out your concerns. Thanks.

Got tired of waiting - pulled the trigger and bought the gray version for $31.04 (plus $1.99 tracking). :Sp

I hope I’ll get it in time to complete the mod before Christmas break. :slight_smile:

Where’s that post regarding fobuy? I assume it was deleted for spamming maybe? :zipper_mouth_face:

Well I actually went to that site and the prizes are amazing - amazingly high. :frowning:

Not the site for me. :slight_smile:

Hi bro,

I was away the whole to go to my hometown to visit my departed parents and brother so didn’t have time to check on the gray status and coupon, although I just checked Dora’s skype message and she says it’s already arrived but she’s already out of her office.

I'm confused. Are you all saying we can order the gray one without using the gb coupon, BUT we can't order it using the coupon? That doesn't make sense! Perhaps Nitecorn95's Nitebird95's order will show "backorder" status?
