I just don't understand the high price on this light. :^(
If/when you get one in your hands, see the quality, and appreciate the mass and heatsinking you'll be wondering why it doesn't cost twice as much.
Tas62,
Don't say that. They are watching us.
I had my PayPal credited back from them on my order of c88's a couple of days ago.
I am running out of places to order this from.
I am starting to regret not buying another one earlier when they were available. Had I known how nice this light was I would have bought more than just one. If anyone finds a vendor that stocks these after you order one or two for yourself please post a link up here.
There is one on ebay for $52bucks
Another from eBay at USD40 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ultrafire-C88-MCU-Q5-LED-AA-Ultra-Throw-Flashlight-/220597591052?pt=US_Flashlights&hash=item335ca41c0c
I found some hkequipment has some in stock for $35.99
LOL @ E1320. We have been following the same path in our hunt for these lights. I too found that HKE claims to have them. I emailed CS yesterday to confirm availability. Should be getting an email back soon. From what I here they have top notch service.
I wish you luck in the hunt.
What about these guys ?

Anyone know how much they get for shipping? Those prices are great!
I just purchased one from SZW and chose paypal but wasn’t taken to the PP site to complete payment but it said my order was complete. Anyone else have this happen? I emailed them with my order # and asked them what to do. I’ll see what they say.
HKPost was apparently free shipping because there was no shipping charge in grand total.
seems to me.... I think a regular light was 5$+ shipped so I bet these are 8$ or more to ship .. it's weight obviously .... Shipping is not free
Someone is managing your PP account for you.
As long as they don't ask to be payed for the service, it's fine. 
LOL! I got my order confirmation email from them and they said to make a paypal payment to them but didn’t provide an email address to make the payment to. Still no shipping fee listed. Just to pay them $23.98 and they will send it once paid. I responded asking for the payment info so I’ll just see what they say next.
Is bestinone.net's wholesale arm, and they don't have any either.
I sure hope Shen Zhen does since I just ordered one. Won’t be surprised if I get an email telling me they don’t have it and will refund my money. Until then I hope I managed to get one of the last available. 
I got a response from HKEquipment customer service, and they have stock!

Get 'em while they got 'em.
Update: Got a confirmation email with shipping date and ETA, looks promising.
How long did it take until they sent it?
2 days. It left Hong Kong for Canada early last week. Hope to see that little delivery slip in my mailbox soon.
Ok, thanks.
I'll give them a few more days, I hope not to see another refund in my PayPal account...
This time of year China/HK post gets slower and slower. It can't cope with the Christmas volumes. 
BTW - This holster looks from its dimensions to be an ideal fit for the MCU-C88.
That is to say the light it is designed for is almost identical in size to the C88.
