I'm Gonna Post Some Great Deals

Now I don’t know how much shipping is on these items, but the prices are great. Probably would save even more to bundle all at once on some of these items.

Check these out.

Isn't soondeal.com the one who spammed us recently?

+ unknown shipping price => I'll skip.

(No worries ILF. I won't shoot the messenger.. ;))

Looks interesting, what’s the back story? Are you going into the flashlight buiseness or did you stumble on the site ?

Definitely a wholesale site.

So anyone wanna pool together and get a light?

I found some deals, but wasn’t able to checkout with them.

I was’nt aware of that. I just seen the prices, and depending on shipping I would say a guy can save some money. I know how most of the shipping game is with the power of bundle the more you save.

Just passing on the info.

Definitely a wholesaler but they don't say if there is a minimum order or not. Shipping could be a real killer but just the prices by themselves are super cheap. I put in a request for FT to carry the SP03. If they can come close to the $62 this place wants it will be a real bargain. I don't expect it to be this cheap though since CNQG sells it for $112 but if FT carries it I'd expect it to be in the $80-$85 range.

Looks like it just errors out when you try to create an account anyways. I sure like those $0 deals too :stuck_out_tongue:

I get an internal server error when creating an account.

Edit: I retired several times and created a few orders. It didnt ask for shipping or payment so I think I have to wait for them to email me a total.

Well I put together an order for the SP03 but on the condition that shipping wasn’t nuts. I also let them know that I might be interested in a group buy if the price was right. So I’ll let everyone know what they say. If shipping is half way decent I will order one just to see what it’s all about.

I almost did the same thing, and went half-way through checkout, but chickened out, so post if/when you hear back from them?

Will do, it should be interesting to see what it’s going to cost. All in all it would still be the cheapest if they would take one large order and ship to each of us. Shipping it to me and then out to everyone else would kill it on a light that size. You have to assume that a medium size Priority mail box would be the best way to go and that’s Twelve and a half bucks right there.

Isn’t that amazing, though? What I mean is that someone like FastTech can ship stuff all the way from HK to the U.S. for free, and we’d have to pay $12+ to ship, say, to even the same state?

Yep that’s how it works. I used to sell guitars worldwide and sold thousands over the years. In the end shipping got me so I retired. Would you like to know what is really crazy? The USPS and E-bay sold us out. On behalf of e-bay the post office entered into a trade deal with China. They can do that just as if they were the congress. They agreed to charge one bulk rate for everything coming into each port. So if it’s 500 little dodads or 1 big package it’s the same price per pound on top of this they get reduced amounts for tracking. Now if they are successful at passing the internet tax law (that of course won’t effect China) it will put even more small guys like me out of business. Not that I am really complaining it was a good run while it lasted and I made a lot of money. If you ever bought a “2nd” or “used” guitar from e-bay or Amazon or a few different websites you probably bought from me or someone else who used the same wholesaler as I did. They are the largest wholesaler of used guitars in the world. (MIRC)

Did they provide you with a shipping cost yet?

Nope they have not gotten back to me yet.

I may be dumb when it comes to buying flashlights, but I’ll be damn if I’m gonna be even dumber and try to make money selling them. :bigsmile:

$17

That’s kind of strange. I did email them last night myself, just to see if they’d respond, and got an email back from “Sarela”, saying shipping cost was $18 (USD). Do you think that they’re legit at this point? I’m still kind of on the fence :(…

Edit: Are you in the U.S.?

I ordered from soondeal:

Original Sanyo 2600mah 18650 Battery MOQ is 5pcs 4.09 10 40.9
Solarstorm SP03 3 XM-L2 U2 3020 Lumens 4*18650 Flashlight 61.99 1 61.99
Total: 11 102.89

Their shipping quote is 23usd
The light and 10 cells for a total of $125.89 shipped

kaidomain sells the sp03 for $94.82
Fastteck sells the sanyo cells for $10.58 a pair.
The light and 10 cells for a total of $147.72 shipped

Saving advantage $21.83: soondeal

Im going to hold off because there are no reviews of this light yet and solarforce lumens are chinese (often grossly exaggerated)
Also, I have no date codes for the cells.
