    Looking at the other forums involved in the gb. This gb is a cluster..... ridden with a lot of promises, unseen destroyed pallets of lights and huge list of paid customers. Given the reliability of China products, the next wave of problems are on the horizons.
    A business can absorb only so much, that's why a ONE YEAR warranty. It's rolling the dice.

    Electronics fail, that's why it pays to have a lifetime warranty. Eventually we all learn.

    I don't know, I've had some of these lights for months and I have absolutely no issue. If you were paying attention to the other posts, this group buy is about 4x larger than anticipated. Try running that on your own.

    If you have issues please PM troy or alex, theres no need to bash. Looks like your not even buying lights? So should it really concern you? By the way rigid offers a LIMITED lifetime warranty and their lights are over twice the price of these, i think we can all make our own decisions on our own.

    I have some dates for you guys. Here's an excerpt form another forum. Please excuse my lame attempt at humor:

    Worst case? The pallet of lights falls off the back of the air freight plane and lands on my doorstep, causing us to continue in a vicious cycle :lol:

    No one's laughing? I guess now isn't the time for jokes...

    The factory will be done producing the order on April 4th.

    My forwarder says he can get the pallet to my door in one week.

    That puts us at the 11th. If I work feverishly with my wife to get everything labeled, I can get everything sent by the 15th

    That puts us at two weeks and two days late from the original shipping deadline.

    Worst case as of right now would mean not having everything shipped until the 20th, which would put us three weeks behind schedule.

    Sorry, that's just too close to the 45 day PayPal dispute. If he stalls for a few more days past his "shipment" arrival, I'm out almost $300 if suddenly something happens. Plus a competitor is selling the exact same lights for cheaper and is promising a two week ship date from my time of order.

    To much shit has happened during this group buy to instill any trust. Sorry Troy, hope everything works out. Please let me know ASAP about my refund.

    I saw that group buy, the housings do look almost exactly the same, but just because the housings are the same doesnt mean the LEDs are the same, i think CREE makes a bunch of different LEDs. Im curiuos to know how the lights compare though, that thread is kind of lacking on info. Its crazy how many group buys are popping up right now.

    Yea, honestly, read that entire thread and everything we found out. eBay seems to be the cheap way to buy lights lol.

    But, we could say the same about Trek. But I won't go there.

    As someone pointed out, ALL of these LED bars are made in China...so who's to say they aren't from the same factory?

    Well its good to see a timeline. My lights do not need to be installed for a while, so Troy- Please feel free to ship mine last- make sure other people get theirs first.

    This is probably been more stressful than it needed to be. Good luck getting all of these things shipped! I sell things on ebay often so I know how overwhelming just shipping 5-10 items can be.

    Ball joint spacers and lift blocks, am I doing it right?
    Sorry, I'm out too.

    Communication is key in sales, transparency builds confidance. Info trickling in over multiple sites and sources has caused me to lose confidence in this group buy.

    Please issue a refund for invoice 2000128 to my PayPal account.

    I'm still waiting. But honestly im sick of getting my hopes up and then reading a new "development" as to why the lights are not at my door. And I'm gonna be honest found the same light on ebay for cheaper, but wanted to support treklights, and someone's small business. Well maybe I should've backed out before I sent payment.
