I see these on the auction site all the time for around 20 bucks.
You seem desperate as you've been looking for over 6 months.
However, I just checked and confirmed the latest 224 lumen model for sale and in stock on numerous big flashlight online stores, for 26 - 27 USD, with free shipping too.
I'm curious as to why you don't just order from one of these flashlight stores?
