Hey guys, Im going to be buying some lights in the future in larger quantities and i was wondering what sites were reliable to buy from and has good prices. Thanks
Find a site like fleabay, or caliexpress and offer the sellers a price for xx units shipped or contact the manufacture directly. ….only way to do it
Hmmm… Any others anyone knows about?
Its not going to be in huge quantities because its only for local gunshops so maybe like 50 at a time.
That’s the only way to go. You can go through a store and buy them but you are paying their markup so they profit on the sale. Do you expect to then mark them up again and make a profit in your gun shop? Buyers aren’t idiots, epsecially gun owners. They research this crap priot to “pulling the trigger” so during research they find the exact light online for half your price since you marked it up and paid retail. SMH, doesn’t take a business degree to figure this out
Actually yes, so far ive been buying them from ebay, selling them to gunshops making double my money, then the gunshop marks them up even more and sells them like crazy. However i found that wallbuy and banggood are cheaper than ebay so ill probably go that route. Around here people are more than happy to pay around $40 for lights like these considering walmart sells crap 300 lumen lights for $50
Well good for you, glad that people around you are complete idiots! Take advantage of them but they will smarten up, if they dont then keep making money!
EDIT: Buyers must be happy when they mount them on their guns and they dont survive a full clip due to recoil
They dont market them as gun tac lights. They just sell them like a normal flashlight. Like i said people love em. They are selling them like hotcakes.
If you dont mind saying, what are you selling them; C8 XM-L, zoomies, 3x XM-L???
Sipik clones for 100$ 
Sipik sk68, sk98, sk28, sk96, ck36
Either way that like $90 profit
Some c8 xmls, zoomies, varies other kinds.
Not too bad. Koyotee, we can only wish lol
With red ultrafire 18650’s that go boom?
Trolololol, I bet you the cell sold are bombs
What city do you live in?
Just ask fasttech banggood or wallbuys for their wholesale pricing on lights you're interested in .
Quality varies so be careful .a c-8 can be 6$ or it can sell for 20$
Buy Impressive ultrafire c8 flashlight At Cheap Prices - Alibaba.com Search for what ever you like, direct connection to china suppliers.
If you need large quantities you can try going straight to the supplier. Sometimes hard to break the language barer, but If you can find the direct supplier, that will be where all the stores get there’s. They buy large quantities for big savings. Tell them what your interested in, and how many you would like to order. Some offer small quantities but at more cost. Some of them will also except paypal as payment method.

I have just been going back and forth with a supplier that is offering me a price of about 1/2 of what I can buy the same product on ebay or web sites, not a flashlight related product. With Shipping door to door as they put it. They have been very quick to respond to my emails. Where do you think a lot of these ebay stores and websites get there stuff.
^^Exactly, I just did a laser projector group buy and we got projectors that cost $265 + shipping on fleabay for $187 SHIPPED DHL express…….all you have to do is go direct to the manufature and spend some time talking to them, cake walk 
I’ve had some great experiences with the following Dutch websites:
Ledlampendirect
Ledlampenfabriek
Hope it helps!
I have used everything from ebay to Alibaba to Banggood, Wallbuys, KD, IS, and countless others. And that, I found, is the key—using each site to its advantage; sometimes, a given site will have too much of something and so will offer products cheaper than at other places. That’s the key; know your product, where it’s available and for what, and be able to “sell the sizzle, not the steak” (as the old car biz phrase goes).
And I’m not talking about manipulation…or, say, charging $100 for 1 Sipik clone. lol I’m talking about, in part, realizing your value to customers and talking it up. Once I found out how easy budget lights come and go and how little they cost, I kept noticing people still asked me to get them for them anyway. So I tacked on a few extra dollars for the effort, and “tada,” that snowballed into something more. It wasn’t just the lights they wanted; they wanted my knowledge of what works and what doesn’t and not to have to deal with the trouble of getting “the right model,” etc. When you believe in what you’re selling and people trust you…magic happens! Never forget that. So, “they” don’t mind if you make you some money along the way, just so that they are fine with the bottom-line price. No ripping off of heads as in our $100 Sipik illustration—but you could ask as much as $10 to $12 for them, I suppose. This goes without saying, of course.
Other tips…
#1) Try to sell un-badged lights (no markings on them): Many sites have these, though not usually in the upper-crust brands. But this slows down people identifying exactly what you are selling and where you are getting them. Kaidomain, Fancyflashlights, and others sell them. But even with other brands, it’s the same as with Girl Scout cookies; you know they are available elsewhere, but want to support a certain person peddling them instead.
#2) Buy in bulk: These sites you hear about are set up for moderate to light wholesaling and can be used to really rake in good deals. Buy in bulk and save.
#3) Use BLF as a one-stop info tool to make informed choices: This - the best advice of all - is what really gives us our personal markets. Don’t take unnecessary risks on buying junk from overseas. You’ve got to watch out for fraud, too. Make informed purchasing decisions. We (collectively) make that much easier.
#4) Get and sustain relationships with manufacturers: Another of the big BLF advantages is being in touch with suppliers (I.E. Amanda Ye, calvin, Ric, etc.) who can stay in touch with you and not only get the best deals, but sustain relationships for product aftercare (another important factor).
#5) Think practical, not hobbiest: Meaning, ask yourself what makes the most sense to the non-illuminated (non-flashies) and what works out, not just purchase-wise, but with regard to cosmetics, like looks, unfunction, and the feel in the hand. It’s a total-package situation. It’s easy to forget this one being that we enthusiasts use terms and refer to specialty crafts that often leave the newbs behind. Ultimately, it’s overall value and “taking mental ownership” (another car term for you! :p) that matters.
Hope that helps.
