Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

Charlie,

Thanks for chiming in regarding the number you need. At this point I have allocated 15 to you which I would assume remains constant depending on whether you have the BH's or someone buys one needing one. In a seperate PM I was asked about anticipated pricing. I have NO idea how much they are going to be, but since I don't have a BH I need one regardless. IF they can be had for the $2 or $3 + shipping that Charlie projected I will go ahead and order enough to cover the "buy" list. If I am quoted significantly more then I will put it out to the group as to who is in or not. I am not doing this to make money, and quite candidly is more hassle than it's worth, but if Charlie can go through the hassle on our behalf it's the least I can do.

I have jobsite meetings all morning so it will be midday before I can get on the boards and call the distributor.

No, it should be Thank YOU Greg. And BTW let's keep it at twenty, good to have a couple of spares in case more heads mysteriously pop up under my bed or somewhere else or people decide to clean'em with sandpaper by mistake and scratch'em, etc.

I would like a reflector since I have ordered one from Mr Bulk without it. Thanks.

Chris,

Could you clarify how many of the six would result in a reduction of the total of 20 that Charlie needs to finish out his remaining inventory. Just getting ready to head out out to meetings and will call when I get back, but I need a fairly accurate final count prior to my conversation with the distributor.

Thanks,

Greg

OK,

Just called the distributor and apparentyly the production manager was stuck in New Orleans attending a Police show that had been cancelled because of Ivan. He was supposed to be in this morning but still hadn't arrived back at the plant.

I'll try back in a couple of hours and keep you posted.

Two more phone calls this afternoon and I still don't have the information. They can't seem to get a price / part number in order to handle the order. Will try again tomorrow since Streamlight is now closed for the day. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dedhorse.gif

Greg,

Tweek's ordering for his own BHs, and not any of the six I may have in my hands. I would still stay with the twenty.

Greg,

If they are only two or three dollars, I would want 15.

Re: FS: VIP BulkHeads - NEW (but incomplete)

Well, I hit a brickwall trying to obtain a replacement reflector direct from Streamlight. They said they do NOT under any circumstances sell reflectors directly do the consumer. The reason: "someone might copy it".

That's the reason I was given, what can I say. I hope Raindrop has better luck otherwise I'm now the proud owner of a useless BH.

C'est la vie!

"Someone might copy it"?? Does this mean that the reflector can't be removed from the light itself? You'd think they could come up with a more plausible excuse (even just a plain "it is our policy not to sell reflectors", without further elaboration).

I hope Greg meets with more success, but if not, are there any other potential reflector sources (i.e., non-streamlight reflectors that might be more readily available)?
