(gb=closed) Only 50 lights were delivered and sent out, *BLF special* Romisen 365/400nm 2xUV SSflashlight, gb with Tinywind

[_the]

Saphire fixed my coupon and it works well now. Thanks! Ordered.

[djozz]

I hope that in the end everyone who wanted to order this light managed to do so. I see that quite a number of orders needed fixing, but also that in most or all cases that the provided fix did work. Thanks to Saphire for being attentive to this, doing a group buy like this for the first time inevitably must be a learning experience. For me it is!

Subject: Something wrong with Order #654 - Tinywind Sorry to tell you that there is something wrong with your order. I checked through our Paypal account but did not receive the payment from you, so I am here to ask if you did successfully make the payment of $13 from your Paypal account. We need to know if any problem with the Paypal system or our web server, thanks for your attention. Regards, Saphire - Tinywind Did anyone else get this message? Paypal says that the payment went through 08/10/15. I’m looking forward to this light. I hope we get enough actual orders in.

Yes, I paid yesterday and got the same email last night. I checked PP and there was no record of it. I asked Saphire what to do but haven't heard back yet. I just checked PP again and the transaction has posted, so I guess their server needed a kick to complete the transaction.

this group buy is at least a Tinywind website test :evil:

[Billy_X]

I got the PM from Saphire yesterday with instructions.I jumped on the TW site,inscribed,found the light and pressed “add to cart”.I read the “$3 tracking,you can cancel it on next page”,so I thought the coupon code box must be there as well.Clicked on the fasttrack paypal and signed in,clicked on “pay” and…$23 debited from your pp a/c :_( .Checked the e mails this morning,pp says $20 is debited from my a/c so no tracking,TW mail confirming order.I write back,can I cancel and try again?and go to work.This evening ,from TW”You do know this light has BLF engraved on it,are you sure…” but a bit later,Saphire wrote back that she had made the $7 refund,can I cancel the cancel and I said Yeh.

And the moral of this story;READ THE INSTRUCTIONS :zipper_mouth_face: Great customer service from Saphire and great group buy from Djozz.

wow, you're having a tough time getting this done. I'm not sure if and how I can help you apart from trying again or contacting Saphire about it

Followed instructions and it worked no problem, ty djozz

Could someone else, just for fun, try the password forgotten function?
It doesn’t work for me…

Ordered! No problems during ordering. Hope everybody who comitted buys one. It’s a short ordering window.

I’m not aware of a defined ordering window. I suggested a week, and it would be nice if most (all?) payments were in by then, but that was not something we fixed as a rigid deadline. Or was there a paying window communicated by PM, tegether with the code? (I wouldnot know because I myself was not in the GB, so I did not receive a code by PM).

So you don’t feel left out, here’s a code for you. :bigsmile:

Was it a UrAnusFire?

Learning window it is. Here’s an easy way to do this next time:

1. Open GB, get enough interest to reach MOQ
2. Give out open code, one week, unlimited qty
3. Take orders and payment. Who cares if people order more or not
4. Place factory order per actual order + Tinywind’s own order
5. ???
6. Profit.

[RonMuller]

ordered, thanks djozz

All Good. Thanks djozz!

The 250 unit order limit could be from Romisen themselves, it could be all they can produce on short notice, 5~6 weeks is short notice for a large producer, interrupting a long run of other products is a no-no so it will have to be squeezed in between runs to make it cost viable and the run they are delaying could be time sensitive.

Again djozz thanks for doing this and could you pass our thanks to Saphire for going out of her way to get everything right, the service I am seeing here from her is amazing.

Cheers David

[qandeel]

I want one or two of these. If anybody is not intending to order his light please let me know.

Thanks

I suggested an open code to Tinywind but she preferred to do it like it is done now. Let us hope that all end up with their lights ordered alright. :sad:
