greenLED · #1 07-27-2004, 02:29 PM

...and, finally, here's a link to Canadian-based vendors (maintained by LEDNinja). I make no claims of endorsements over the links listed there (as none are made here), but I thought our neighbors to the North would like to see the list as well.

Disclaimer/notes Edit:
I don't work for any of these businesses or get anything from them for adding links to their sites here. I just like to find good deals once in a while and thought it'd be nice to share this info. I used to list these links in the order in which I found them or people sent the links to me; starting 1 Nov 2005, I decided to list the CPF specials in alphabetical order; other links listed as people point them out to me.

Finally, you might notice I have declined to list a few select vendors that may offer rock-bottom prices or discounts. With the "CPF Spirit" in mind, I reserve the right to decide which specials will be listed.

If you're a CPF-supporting vendor, a bunch!

flashaholics.co.uk is offering an 8% discount to CPFers with the code CPF entered at checkout.

greenLED · #3 08-08-2008, 11:10 AM

Many

to the CPFM mods/admins for refreshing this thread.

The original one had 132,341 views since I first posted 07-27-2004. That's roughly 90 views per day!!

(yes, I'm counting)

Wow! This is a great thread!! Thanks for compiling all the dealers in one place!! I do have one tiny question though, besides DX and KD are there any others that offer free international shipping??

I ask cos i live in a flashlight wasteland (SIngapore) and all my stuff, mods, cells and lights are usually ordered online.

Thanks in advance for reading this

brighterisbetter · #5 08-23-2008, 09:26 AM

Is anyone else having difficulty using 'CPF' as the discount code at Lighthound.com? Every time I enter it when logged into my account, says something like "Coupon code is INVALID".

I found you need to have something in your cart for the code to work. And it shows up as a separate discount, not a drop in price. If you empty your cart, you then get an invalid coupon message. So fill your cart, then apply the coupon. It worked for me.

www.fenix-store.com and www.4sevens.com do.

Nite · #8 08-29-2008, 10:02 AM

good prices too...http://www.flashlightz.com/product.php?product=171462
At this time I do not have any promo codes. We just offer free shipping on
totals over $100 and if it is under that it is a flat rate of $7.95. If we
gave any promos on these we would be under cost as we already have them
marked at 15% off.

You're welcome.

Other than 4sevens.com I'm not familiar with other people's shipping prices.

(Thanks for chiming in ESSlights.)

Nite, I added a link to your site in the OP.

Nite · #10 08-29-2008, 03:26 PM

turns out the light puts out only 250 lumens with Li-lion cells..but those prices are insane

http://www.flashlightz.com/product.php?product=171462

I want one i think...

Anyway glad I could contribute..

your thread here, and MDOCODs li-ion thread on CPF are the only two threads anyone would need to buy and learn about lights in the Lithium Xenon category. They are my bible..I check your page alot! is that 90 different IPs a day?

I'm not sure how the software counts "views". Greta or one of the admins/mods might know the answer to that one.

russtang · #12 09-02-2008, 07:36 PM

We would like everyone at CPF to know that since our current shopping cart doesn't allow for discounts or coupons, ALL Flashlight purchases are upgraded to usps Priority w/DC, at no extra charge.(usa)

* 4/21/09 our shipping costs and policies have changes a couple of times since this post.
Please view our shipping policies here:
http://www.uniquetitanium.com/ShippingCharges.htm

Any merchandise $30 or more is shipped USPS Priority for $5.80 and Any merchandise totaling $148 or more is shipped FREE USPS Priority.

Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.

Thanks for your support.

greenLED · #13 09-06-2008, 11:36 AM

Russ! I added your offer to the OP.

276 · #14 09-08-2008, 05:28 PM

greenLED · #15 09-08-2008, 07:36 PM

That would be great, 276. Thank you.

puzzl3 · #16 09-09-2008, 10:11 AM

How much shipping international?

greenLED · #17 09-09-2008, 12:05 PM

I don't sell anything in this thread, puzzle. You'll need to ask the particular vendor you're buying from about their international shipping costs.

4sevens · #18 09-19-2008, 09:30 PM

Migs - can you add a link to our clearance section as well as 10% and 15% discounts on select models announced here? http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/sho....php?p=2204323

Hey has the lighthound code changed or somthing? I put "CPF" in the cupon code slot but it says "invalid" (my order was 42.00$ not including shipping cost).

greenLED · #22 11-29-2008, 09:34 PM

I haven't bought anything in a while. Anybody can confirm?

Would you mind shooting them an e-mail and asking about it. Sometimes there're glitches in e-store systems that get resolved in a day or so (or an e-mail to CS gets if fixed).

It still works for me. See procedure in post #6.

FWIW, coupon codes at Lighthound do stack, so you can use more than one if you have another.

So I sent an email to the hound, and they did reply. Here is a copy of the email.

yes, that code is valid, make sure you enter it in lower case, if it won't work, just make a note in the comments section and we will apply it manually when we process your order.

I did attempt to do it in lowercase and had no luck, however I looks like regardless they are still willing to honor it, and I will also say this discount or no its a great place to shop.

tom_kauf · #27 12-05-2008, 03:58 PM

Hi everyone, I just registered on CPF MP (I hadn't realised I needed to register seperately on here, as well as the normal CPF).
After a lot of help from the CPF members, I will buy a LumaPower LM31.

Does CfrLights.com have any sepcials for members? They have a summer sale at the moment, so even if they do, they might not give an extra discount on top of that. We'll see.

Thanks
