So no free shipping option after all?

I’m confused on the ordering procedure. Do I wait for a priate message from the seller, with instructions?

BTW, I can’t find my name on TK’s list, linked above. But there aren’t any date reference points on that list, so no way to search other than line-by-line. I joined the “waiting list” on February 18.

I’ll update the interest list again tomorrow when the privmsg script finishes, then run the script again with the new data.

It looks like there may be quite a few people added.

Sorry for the slow speed in sending messages… the purchase page opened up by surprise, and I want people early on the list to have a chance to order first. So it’s intentionally slow.

Also, it seems things won’t ship until at least May 8, so this doesn’t actually cause any delay in how long it’ll take to receive the lights. But I definitely understand how excruciating it can be to “hurry up and wait”.

It’s currently on message 191 of 1544.

You’ll get a PM from “FW3A Team” when it’s your “turn” as it were – TK posted a list of all the accounts it’ll be sent to and in what order, so you just need to follow teacher’s post about working it out. 14:00 CST (I think it was) is when PMs started, and 90 seconds between posts – so 40 per hour.

OK, thanks. Sorry about the duplicate inquiry. I thought this first one didn’t take, and then I found TKs original post so I quoted it.

And I still haven’t managed to find my name on the list. Do you have any idea where February 18 of this year would fall, number-wise?

/\ See answers above your post.

Find your name in post 4 listing & go from there.

1383 funkychateau

Not sure what it’s up to now; I’m a few after you and I worked it out to be roughly 25 hours from now. I think.

(I had TK’s link open in Chrome Mobile and it wouldn’t let me Find on Page, blah)

I guess my biggest concern at this point is that I can’t seem to find my name.

In for 2

1383. on TKs list

Now there was only 3 options
-shipping difference
-standard shipping
-Expedited shipping

Shipping difference(Whatever that means?) and standard shipping were the same amount. But no free shipping option offered.

Thanks!

Looks like the XP-L is all that’s available. If we want the SST, should be wait to purchase? Or is this planned for much later on.

I saw somewhere it said most countries got free shipping. I got free. I am in US.

@ funkychateau….

Yep, as they said; 1383 on TK’s PM sending list. Do the math as described earlier & you will get a pretty exact time you will/should receive your PM.

I like this new list. It bumped me up about 400 spots in the line.

Australia also shows as free shipping at the moment, $10 option for expedited.

(Waiting for coupon though )

funkychateau, you’ll be about 2.20am CST on Sunday morning. I’m 4 after you, but thankfully it’ll be 5:30pm Sunday arvo

I’m 1299 on the PM list and it worked out to 34 hours, yes 34 hours, from start time this afternoon … or 10:00 p.m. tomorrow night.

Add me to the list. Even though I just built a triple….

I’m 674 on the original list, 541 on the email list. I should receive my email around 5:16 AM EST in the morning.

I’m glad I came to BLF this evening. I was happily surprised to find this had began.

Thanks to all who made it possible.

Now to do some catch up reading to find some process information.

What country is it being shipped to??

Finland.
Got free shipping with BLF GT and usually AliExpress, eBay and Banggood offer mostly free shipping to Finland. Gearbest has been getting more greedy lately so many purchases had to been skipped when their cheapest shipping option is sometimes bigger than the actual item.

In most browsers, try Ctrl-F and then type what you’re looking for. I see you on the PM list at #1383:

http://toykeeper.net/torches/fw3a/privmsg.lst

For reference, the script says it just sent out message 366.

Sorry about the timing math stuff. Things happened kinda last-minute.

Is that a script to tell how far along the messages are?

Will the list be updated tomorrow to reflect the new orders put in today?
