What warranty? What refund? and then if you buy $2k worth of lights they write down its $400 so you don’t need to pay tax on it ... then it gets lost and shipping/transport say sorry we lost your box here is your $400 to replace them lol
They use language to play dumb in everyday life don’t get me started about and tourism and specially in theme parks ! lol
Im feeling enlightened :)
Mega you need someone to scratch your itch, lol
I disagree with that.Quote:

I have also seen other manufacture price lists of some other big name light bars which I will not mention. But it put into perspective who actually sells quality and who marks it up middle of the range.
China is not a giant black market, leading manufacturers are heavily regulated and have all the relevant ISO and CE etc accreditations as a company in the western world would.
I agree 100% with you bene. But how much was you 22" single row? The product being sold in this thread and that link I would consider to be the bottom end of the market and a flooded market it is with entry level quality products sold in bulk Sorld Wide at a price point rather than a Quality point. That's OK though. But the aprice point product certainly exists out of china. ISO regardless.Quote:

I have absolutely No Doubt that at the upper end of the market there is some high quality high end gear at an appropriate price. But, and a big But, the bottom end of the market is not trying to compete with the high end and are making and flogging to the bulk World market for bugger all in real dollars IMO. A 52" light Bar exists out of China just as a $200 22" light bar does.
On a positive note, have just been offered 2 x 10 inch bars as a substitute
Wonder if this guy really did get a light bar like the feedback suggests.
I got a quote from alibaba for 42" $130 each plus delivery or if buy 10 $1500 delivered
