I'm in deep doodoo

[mknewman]

I just ordered some stuff from Lighthound and he charged me tax. Now I see he's in Texas, near me. LIke 6 miles or so. And he has a storefront.

How does that put you "In deep doodoo"? Just means you spent a couple dollars more.

6 miles away, has a storefront.
I imagine there is a very strong magnetic field pulling you there....
best of luck to you

Good luck trying to stay away!!!

If your that close to LH and are a flashaholic you are indeed in deep doodoo. You better move to another state.

no it means he's about to be spending way more

For a second I was like that's sweet your so close:thumbsup:……then I realized what I'd be doing if I lived 6 miles away from a major flashlight retail store….

I'm sorry for your loss.

Hey, maybe you could get a part-time job there and get promos and employee discount!!! Oh, wait, that would be like an alcoholic working in a liquor store.

The plus side is that you can buy extra flashlights with what you would have spent on shipping, so it's win/win.

Call him, cancel your order, and go to his store and spend double.

 

[bladerunner]

Say "hello" to him for all of us..LOL.

I'm a 20 minute drive from Brightguy... Lucky for me they're closed on saturday when I have time off!

Well, I ordered some things thursday night late and it showed up on my door this morning. I do need to go there and browse though. I'll leave my credit card at home

take photos of their store and post them here along with your purchases

 

[tlillard23]

go there and break a bunch of displays and say "I have my maglights, what does ANYONE need this CRAP FOR??!!!"

The hospital bill might be less than the flashlight bill.....

 

[glockboy]

He got a dark room so you can test the lights.
Better bring your credit card too.

I do need to go there and browse though.)

I work in the Chemical industry and I was in Freeport, Tx for a few weeks. This is only 35 minutes from Pearland, from what I hear. I very badly wanted to take a trip but never got the time. Let us know how it is!!! They close at 6 i believe, and i never left work before 5 so that was the problem.

I will be traveling to Freeport a few times a year, I hope i can make it to the store.

Your goose is cooked.

 

[Flashfirstask?later]

At least you will be on first name basis with everybody...

I always have to resist the urge to stop by a local store (when I go by) and play with the Fenix lights they started to carry alongside their usual Streamlights.

Not much to see in their store. They don't really have many lights on display. They just have a few shelves with plastic tubs full of various stuff like batteries and light accessories. They do have several Fenix lights hanging on a display, but I don't remember seeing many other lights.
Their store front is really more of a shipping warehouse, than a fancy store.
They just moved recently to the new shopping strip on Hwy 518 and I thought they might go a little more upscale and put more lights and knives on display, but they didn't.
