I just checked, there are more than adequate China sources. I can request them to stock up a few. Model is discontinued, purchasing team decided to drop this item due to unstable sources.
I too had problems with Gearbests website ordering system. I tried to place an order for a couple of the Lumintop Tool AAA flashlights during the sale (at $11.99), but every time I placed them in my shopping cart, the price changed to $19.00 —- WHILE THE SALE WAS STILL ON.
I followed all the instructions that had been posted (emptying my cache, refreshing the page, etc.) to no avail.
I sent a message to Gearbests “live chat” link, but received no response.
I also sent a message to Gearbests “ask a question” link, and again received no response. Nor have I received any response to my queries since then.
I still want to buy a couple of these flashlights at the sale price.
Sometimes it might be your web browser that acts up ;)!
It has happened with ticket system when using different browsers here as well as weird ordering issues on cnqualitygoods as well when using different browsers.
