I do wish solarforce-sales.com would quit photographing black flashlights against a black background. It is hard to get excited about a light you can't see.

Yeah, there're not the best images. The pictures at solarforce.hk look a little better but they're on a black background too. Anyway, I like their prices so I put up with their pictures and their engrish.

You can be certain that it isn't, the biggest give away is that you can't get an L2 with that bezel...they come with the spikey bezel of death :P

I do find it rather ironic that a Chinese clone of a Surefire is well enough made that there are cheaper Chinese fakes of the original Chinese fake.

Of course, Shiningbeam is hard to beat for service and for some pretty unique products, not to mention accurate descriptions. I have to rate Tmart a close second, though, because they ship promptly to US addresses and they (so far) accurately describe their products. Prices are good, and there's a bonus: They honored their price mistake on the WF-502B box set.

There's nothing to complain about from either of these sellers, and no doubt they'll both get my business again.

I haven't tried Tmart, glad I started this thread: some good info here.

I did put an order in with solarforce-sales.com today. $2 to ship to the US, not bad.

ive ordered a few times now from solarforce-sales and their ebay store ITC. Their really quick to ship and are pretty quick at replying to emails.

I tried manafonts online support today and was quite pleased that my questions were answered quickly. no slow emails back and forth like the others.

Thanks for reminding me Robert, Tmart is great...nothing better than ordering something, paying Chinese prices and having your stuff in 3 days.

I prefer Manafont over DX. For SolarForce stuff you can't beat Solarforce-sales.com. Stateside stores ship a lot quicker but you have to pay extra for the speed. For the price--it's tough to beat the free shipping from chinese stores.
