All it takes is two.
Careful, your post may also be marked as spam with a signature like this:
That would also be abusing the mark as SPAM button. :|
I am referring to the fact that FlashPilot’s labelled as spam presumably for saying like: “avoid purchasing from gearbest”.
Yeah, we all know.
Marking FlashPilot's post as spam is an abuse of the SPAM button.
Marking BLightSam's post as spam is also an abuse of the SPAM button.
Here's some of the post in question.
Just don't ask me to type it up. ;)
You would have to be a really brainwashed shill to mark my posts as spam.
Not you, the one who marks, of course…
That’s only the summary ?! Must have been some post. Thanks for the cache image. (How did you do it?)
Gearbest’s crappy service aside, I’m genuinely curious about OP’s chargers problem, since I have one on the way and I’m thinking these are pre-production leftovers. OP hasn’t responded but someone else did in his behalf?
You will find a lot more information on this charger, and a rather more civilised discussion, on the other side
OP’s thead is here

We all remeber Wall buys and Dino direct we banned them why do we continue to keep gearbest with all these negative reports? I have only made 4 small orders and my son’s is the 5 thrall of them crappy in terms of delivery times or customer service ,the only one o had ws when o went through paypal and filed a dispute and I’ll be if my Ganzo didn’t show up in 2 weeks after 21/2 months of waiting and emailing with may asking me to check my pill local post office.
That’s some involved procedure! Would never have figured that out in a million years. Thanks a million.
(The pop up spans the entire monitor width. Can’t figure out to make it in your format.)
Thanks a lot Racoon City for the detective work, that’s pretty complicated. Now if Mr. Admin could tell us who abusively pressed the mark as spam button…
Try changing the resolution of your monitor. :)
And if you're feeling particularly courageous, switch orientation from landscape to portrait. :O

I have a programming idea for Mr. Admin.
Take out the “Mark as SPAM” button for any post with more than 10 replies and/or for any user with more than 100 posts, since spammers will almost always be starting new threads with a low post count, and at some point it’s a real discussion.
Hi guys, I prefer not to mention names, but please read over this information about proper use of the spam button:
Hello Mr. Admin. Thank you again for retrieving my post. The cowardly imbeciles who deleted it, proves another example of how those back-stabbing shills will do anything to protect their 8% commissions while profiting through the misfortunes of others. Id recommend permanently banning them to help clean the poop stains from the forum. :Sp As an aside, I think the banned sociopathic troll has also returned with a new account and should be deleted.
There was some good truthful information to share in that post, and it also helped get a lot of people up to speed to help prevent them from throwing away their hard earned money.
Just as promised (for those who missed out due to the ignorance and unscrupulous greed of others), here’s my repost:
Summation:
An unproven, overpriced, problematic charger, IMO in need of a great deal more development, similar to a Swiss army knife, that does everything, but not any one thing particularly well, touted by the most sociopathic troll to have ever stalked BLF, now permanently banned from BLF for being a repeated sociopath, yet shilling along at the overzealous Nazi site with other unscrupulous brethren, sold by a knifing bunch of proven thieves, now trying to back pedal before even more members stop buying from them, while being defended by another repeat shill who many are getting sick and tired of, where we might all agree that a new phrase has been coined to most accurately describe GB, and they have already earned an “AVOID” rating with BLF for pissing off the admin and dozens of others! 
@chewy78 - hang in there and keep us all posted on your communications with GB. Feel free to copy/paste your conversations with them here because we are all concerned that they are trying to rip you off. Also, please IMMEDIATELY start your PayPal dispute process NOW and escalate the claim as soon as possible. While not my preferred vendor, GB has tried to rip me off several times. The moment they try to steal my money, I immediately file my PayPal claim, escalate my PayPal claim as soon as possible and get 100% of my money back 100% of the time. Also, NEVER EVER cancel your PayPal dispute until the dispute has been settled to 100% of your satisfaction. GB will use every possible tactic and lie while asking you to cancel your dispute. They will probably even have some blithering idiot who will call themselves a “charger expert”, who will then proceed to ask you some of the stupidest unrelated questions a bipedal organism could ever ask a thinking person. You will waste many, many days repeating yourself and asking what is happening with your order while they ignore you or try to run out the clock so your PP dispute expires before they can refund your money. There is no grey area here, only your prompt refund while ignoring the shills who might tell you otherwise. We need to keep this out in the open and stamp out anyone who might prevent justice from being served. If you find satisfaction, you can always cancel your PP dispute. I can launch a scud missile attack on their shabby GB shack if necessary, and drive the dishonest cretins back into the sea… which they are already familiar with from great experience! :bigsmile:
I hate to disagree with you in that regard because you’re 100% right, but also remember GB is one of the cheapest places to buy our lights at, some of them are not available at BG or other shop at accessible prices. This forum is mostly about budget and that means having to deal with some problems from time to time, specially if the seller are chinese.
What we can do and are doing already, is to publicly let people know to avoid GB. Banning them completely won’t keep people from buying there.
