Update! I got my Glospex order!

[Grimwood]

I received an email after placing my order confirming my purchase, followed up by an immediate email stating "awaiting fulfillment." I waited a week, then sent an email regarding the status of those items. Are they on back order? Unavailable? No answer was provided on any of their media sites. So, after almost 2 weeks of having no contact with glospex and several emails that went unanswered, I submitted a request to paypal so that they could contact them. As soon as the request was entered, I immediately got a refund notice from their company.

Looks like I'll have to craft my own glospex. Or, does anyone have any ideas where else they might be available?

Re: Glospex

that's terrible. I was under the impression they were legit.

Re: Glospex

I think they were at first. Lots of people got their glospex.

I have a couple of ideas about what to use instead.

Re: Glospex

I'm going to use colored see through plastic storage bins (I have some in blue and grey) that I am going to cut out then attach a couple of leds connected to a power source.

I also have an old motorcycle visor that could be used (it's shaded) Lighting might be a bit more difficult to see with that, however.

Re: Glospex

It's not my material, but it' what I'm using to craft my own light-up visor, since I couldn't buy any of those glospex (here in Brazil we have a lot of difficulties to directly import anything).

Yeah, I think since they went into R&D mode for their newer stuff, they have fallen off the ball. Too bad, as their old stuff was pretty good.

Re: Glospex

man i guess its a good thing i ordered 2 just in case. Maybe they will get their **** back together i just got mine not that long ago (march or april) and they shipped fast and were the same quality as the ones i ordered a year or so ago.

Re: Glospex

Any news on this? I still haven't gotten the Glospex I ordered and as previously stated, the guy isn't responding to emails. If anyone has a pair they're not using I'd gladly buy them from you.

Re: Glospex

Not a word. He never responded to me. In fact, I'm waiting for my refund.

Re: Glospex

Update!

i received an email today. Apparently after receiving a refund via PayPal for items never shipped, glospex has decided to send me my order for free anyway for the inconvenience.

Awesome!!

I'm guessing they didn't give you a reason why there was no communication?

 

[Grimwood]

Nope, just that they were sorry. Here's the email:

Hi Eric, sorry for the delay. We had given you a refund for our mistake of not shipping you the glasses on time. We apologize for the inconvenience and will ship you the three glasses you ordered for free.

There is a different name signed at the bottom. Maybe they got their act together? I don't know. I'm just glad I got them!

Just want to add that I got mine too about a week ago, but no apology for the LONG wait and they still charged me full price. Very shifty company I gotta say.
