    Was a few cents cheaper yesterday due to drop in exchange rates. Anyone noticed how much of a ripoff the PayPal exchange rates are? PP .89 cents vs .93 on XE.

    Not buying another, since last one purchased from amazon from a deal posted here gave me a faulty unit! And to have another one resent would cost way more than the initial purchase cause the faulty needs to be sent back.

    I believe these models are the same at least if not similar.

    Don't forget to pay with your Citibank debit/28 degrees card if you have it to avoid munted paypal currency conversion rates! (still pay via pay pal for the protection, just pay with your chosen fee-free-currency-conversion-card and choose the pay with USD option)

      Got a despatch notice on 25/4 with a 12-20 (business) days delivery prediction (for normal country). Evidently parcels only travel on business days in normal countries, so abnormal countries may be faster.
      Taking this literally, and assuming normality, my earliest delivery will be 13/5.

      • Roney on 01/05/2014 - 12:03

        Nope, haven't got mine yet. Assuming 12 business days since order on 18 Apr, my earliest would be 6 May. It also depends on my local postie's mood.

    Still waiting for mine. Bought on the 17th, and It said next day post on their page as it was in stock, but until 9 days later that I queried them about whether or not my item shipped, did I miraculously receive a shipping email the next day when they replied to my query. It's my first and probably last purchase from them

        This has got to be a good example of the Ozbargain Effect and group herd marketing. Product okay - I mean it's not awesome, shipping took a month and the price was not something I would call a bargain in the context of other similar categorised torches. Note to self don't confuse + with actual product and service that comes from ordering the advertised product.

    Did not arrive, just submitted a support ticket with refund request. Payment did not go to 'gearbest' like other orders I have made, when looking at the paypal transaction it went to 'li pengzhen' [email protected]. Not sure what that means but I have my gearbest order and tracking number saying it's been sent.

    • Miami Mall Alien on 26/05/2014 - 03:10

      Same here. And strangely enough when looking at the order status, it says "Shipped Out" but the little graphic above that shows the order as pending payment.

      Either way, the Buyer Protection Period is fast approaching its expiry, so no choice really.

  • WizardofOzBargain on 24/05/2014 - 16:19

    I bought two and I have suspicions that one of them are fake. Several features on them are different, the button, the paint quality and the clip. Anyone else get the same thing?

    • figarow on 24/05/2014 - 17:32

      I got 3 and all were the same except for the beam being different in all 3 including color differences but I put that down to cheap manufacturing.

    Received this message from the seller after submitting a dispute:

    Dear ____________

    So sorry for the inconvenience has caused to you.

    As the order W___________, we shipped your order by flat rate shipping at Apr 25,As you known, you chose flat rate shipping which is not like standard shipping or expedited shipping which will provide you with detailed delivery information. And it is slower than other shipments.

    Any other questions,please feel free to let us know,we will more than happy to service for you,thank you.

    Sent them this reply:

    Thanks for the reply.

    How exactly am I supposed to get a refund if after waiting 2 - 3 months, the item does not arrive?

    You only offer a 45 day money back guarantee, and it's nearly been 45 days. If the item has been lost in transit, then I have no guarantee of receiving it since there is no tracking.

    1 month and 1 week is a reasonably long enough time to wait, even by the very slow flat rate shipping times from China and Hong Kong.

    I've ordered dozens of products via such couriers before and this is a LONG wait time, even by those standards.

    If the courier companies you use for flat rate shipping have continual problems delivering items in a reasonable time, that is YOUR PROBLEM; not mine. I do not control the courier companies you deal with nor should choosing a cheaper courier service cause my order to be considered "low priority" and subject to less quality control.

    They're your couriers; they're your problem. Don't offer such unreliable shipping services if they're a cause of continual complaints for you.

    I still maintain I would like a refund from you, otherwise I will escalate this to a PayPal Claim.

  • ozzie freddo on 27/05/2014 - 23:51

    Mine arrived today and it is a good little performer.

    I have been surprised at the whingeing in this forum about the delivery time. They provided an estimated delivery date range and mine arrived 4 days after their later prediction. Their deliveries are at the mercy of the variables involved in international freight logistics. Perhaps we have been spoilt by the many excellent delivery times that we usually enjoy.

    What has happened to good old fashioned patience and tolerance?

    mine also arrived today.

    seems like quite poor build quality though, there's a rubber seal on the inside and mine came loose immediately and now everytime i unscrew/screw it it catches on the seal and is almost ripped, now i have a nice bit of dangling plastic on the inside of the torch and get an annoying shadow when i use it.

  • nvox on 28/05/2014 - 10:47

    Arrived today (was dispatched 24/04/2014)
    Low quality which I expected from price.
    It had rubber seal dangling loose inside the lens so unscrewed top cap and removed it.

    • [Deactivated] on 31/05/2014 - 02:25

      how do you remove? my rubber seal is dangling in the space between the lens and the battery "connector"…

      • nvox on 31/05/2014 - 08:53

        Hold onto the bumpy section and unscrew the top smooth section.
        I ended up refitting the rubber seal, it took a few go's for it to stay on when putting torch back together hopefully it stays put.

  • apey2000 on 28/05/2014 - 11:05

    Mine finally arrived today. Not overly impressed with it, but then it did cost ~ $3.50 so I can't really complain. As a comparison though, my Sunwayman M10A AA flashlight is much much brighter, more functional and of better build quality.

    Planning to use mine as a bicycle light and for that purpose, it will do (assuming rain doesn't kill it).

  • hammo650 on 28/05/2014 - 17:23

    Got mine yesterday, had an "opened by customs" sticker on envelope so that may have held up delivery.

    It was DOA, had to pull it apart and re-seat circuit board for better contact, this fixed it and it works but i have purchased a few of these same torches and this one is not the best build compared to others i have.

  • sixnout on 28/05/2014 - 18:34

    Totally forgot that I had ordered this. Arrived today, and for $3.50, definitely not complaining!

      Yeah, it's okay for the price.

      Ordered 24/4, shipped (must've been by slow boat from China) 28/4, arrived 28/5; 23 business days out of the 25 day estimate.

      "The shipping speed is outside our control" = "dependent on how fast the wind pushes that slow boat across the seas"

  • Roney on 29/05/2014 - 11:45

    Mine FINALLY arrived! Probably came by a boat from indonesia…. The torchlight output is no freaking way near the claimed 350lm, more like 80lm like my other one from Kmart. Not happy!

  • oldsee on 30/05/2014 - 16:07

    Arrived today Qld
    No Zoom (Maybe "Focus: Yes" does not mean zoom)
    Poorly assembled, low lumens
    Disappointing flashlight
    Sometimes you get what you pay for lol

    Oldsee

    • ozzie freddo on 30/05/2014 - 21:55

      The whole lens assembly does slide to give zoom. Mine was very stiff initially and I had to apply a lot of pressure but it does zoom from a big circle right through to a projection of the LED itself (about 80mm at 1 metre).

  • Miami Mall Alien on 30/05/2014 - 22:26

    Finally arrived. It's not bad, feels solid for the price but the wait time really saps all buyer enthusiasm for the product.

    Adding to the chorus of 'mine arrived today' cause err… Mine arrived today. Read some of the complaints about it, but to be honest I think it's a great touch for the price. This one can live in the car with its eneloop powering it :-P

  • majord on 30/05/2014 - 23:16

    Got mine too..

    For the price it's pretty good, so no complaints, but nowhere near what I was expecting from all the fanfare over it.

    It is quite poor quality, as mentioned and no where near 350 lumens advertised.. My 120 Lumen 2xAA Cree from aldi is notably brighter (and just as notably better built), This is evident from that fact it draws more power too _2.5w vs 1w for this) This is no surprise though, I don't think it has a boost converter after all. You could probably drive the LED harder.
