Fair call, I'll make an alibaba account and ask a few wholesalers about pricing on 200 off 50" 300W lightbars FOB china.Quote:

will report back with any info worthy of interest.
Didn't william wallace say "They can take our lightbar, but they'll never take our moneyyyyy*!!"Quote:

I'll try to hang out till then. I will just spam them. lol
I wonder if they will throw in a wiring loom and relay also.
Ive had a couple of emails back and forth, I havent threatened anything and have just asked for a different light bar in replace of the 52" as they have run out of that stock. They seem quite helpful at the moment so I could hopefully have myself two shiney new light bars soon enough :)
Nice idea Meh
hopefully they don't limit your choice to little 8" ones or something. Will have to re-check out the store to see what others they offer....unless they're hacked prices as well....
This is exactly what I have done...Quote:

Price wise its on the more watts you buy the cheaper it will be, can't see him having 300 in stock,
just not feezable, I received a full refund from the dude, the person who made the typo is now not working
I"d imagine
Here's some fun.
You know how we each bought a bar, and it said the Australian warehouse said it had stock? When a bar was bought it modifies the listing. You can see each time the listing is modified. Match that up with your time of purchase.
And see how far back that it is only the quantity in stock that has changed, vs a change of price.

I have not sent any further emails but will sit here for a day or so and let it play out. Not a fan of ripping anyone off by any stretch but regardless of the math, if this guy is a Chinese Seller trading on eBay.au it is very very likely that he is buying direct from the factory and probably paying $50 a unit. I doubt very much that this error has him on his knees. The potential for him to get dumped by eBay though is a much greater problem.
Guys you're exaggerating how cheap China is... They will be paying over 200 dollars a bar. There are so many sellers of the exact same thing, I guarantee if they are paying 50 bucks for them they would cut each others throat and sell them at like 52 dollars or else they'll get no sales.
Got a reply offering alternate products at "fair / best price" but no indication of what the product is or cost
Last night I said I would accept a single row 30" bar (it would suit my needs better than the huge mofo lol) and they said they would offer it to me at their best price... lol. I did not even ask their best price I just said that they could get out of having to send the more expensive one by sending the smaller one.
I reckon if everyone tells them "no light NO deal" and tell them if you dont get your light you WILL leave negative feedback, This will make them reconsider the deal.
After all feedback is their business
Good on you blokes if you get another light but i thought about it and thought i'm not a scammer so why should i rip them off for what ever reason they botched the the price of the listing, hacked or not i'd rather get my money back then cockroach another product off them. If i they had done something to me then sure i'd rip into 'em but they haven't. So good luck blokes !!

As posted above if they came out and said "sorry we stuffed up, would you kindly accept out offer of apology", there would be no problems.
They are constantly lying through their teeth and still selling the same product. Anyway thats how I look at it:) Happy says...LOL
What they've done is scammed 400 people into thinking they've gotten a cheap light... then they tell them all sorry we can't supply it but we give you a 5% storewide discount...... great advertising for them, suddenly they've got 400 people looking through their entire eBay store.
Well..... that's what they hoped would happen anyway.
I don't believe it was deliberate I think they just F...up, it would be to risky to deliberately do it because of the negative feedback and financial loss.
They should have told the truth from the start but I have let it pass and accepted the refund.
Same mate I agree and have received my refund. I bought it on the off chance it was genuine.Quote:

The scam would be if they said they would give a store credit and not a refund to force you to buy from them , then it would be a different story.Quote:

Refunded in full today and 5% for next time NOT
5 stars left
Next time?! You mean your next led bar will be only $$210?
Also, there must be some sort of embargo on the feedback. Most of the neutral feedback is stating long postage/not received.
The latest negative feedback says that it doesn't fit a Goldwing.
no reason I see to give him bad feed back we were all trying to get a cheap light bar,
if I got it good ,,if not no big deal I get them cheap anyway.
I agree with TD and I won't be leaving any feedbackQuote:

They have been getting good and bad reviews on this item since yesterday
have a look at the item specifics (not the heading) and pay close attention to the pricing of this listing http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/300W-54in...a11f88e&_uhb=1.......... look familiar and again stock in Sydney????
Never mind that clunk here is the exact same add as we purchased re listed.

@ BA I reckon Mega texture is the man for a letter

What is starting to get me pissed about it all is the different responses they give depending on who said what to them??
But from a completely different angle we all knew full well what was going on from the start and were trying to get something for nothing!!!
I already have 2 light bars... do I need 4??? I am just as guilty ..... he he!!!

We are all just seeing what's going on with the claim and see if we can get these bars or get our money back. It's all fun and games no one is seriously expecting the lights
What makes you think you get to determine this post gets closed?
Has gone up a couple of dollarsQuote:
