Uniq will only accept Paypal for an order of $500 or less and only for new customers...NO EXCEPTIONS!!

I tried very, very hard to get around this BS policy they put in place, but to no avail and they won't accept Escrow! They gave me their reasons, but one of them that was given was an outright LIE and I caught him red-handed....and showed him! That's when the hammer came down and he says "no exceptions".

So that means that Scottinboca can't host another coop, through Uniq Technology, unless y'all wanna pay via T/T (wire transfer), cuz they will not accept Paypal from Scott again.

What this basically means, from a negotiator's point of view, is that everyone in Scott's coop is gonna get el-primo LT's! So good news for Scott and his 9 others...probably?

This type of transaction is called a "bait-n-switch" tactic used (usually) by unscrupulous companies to lure unsuspecting buyers into repeat business. Where if he were to gained their trust and decided to give it another go and buy more, he'd have to send the funds wire transfer, cuz Scott would no longer be a new customer. Scott would then have to pay the international wire transfer fees, which are NOT cheap BTW, and then PRAY that what he got would be el-primo. But he'd have zero leverage on a return and no guarantees of seeing the product OR his money again.

Nice huh?

LOL....yeaaah.

The only way to bypass Uniq's policy is to find, what, 50 or so coop hosts with verified Paypal accounts??

But you're also going to pay a higher premium for the sets, which are $36.50 each and are not as well equipped as the box sets. But they do come with a nice carrying case....(oh yey, right?).

Think Scott's coop price, in total, delivered to your door, was $55 each kit....with NO WARRANTY!

Is that correct Scott?

Not a bad deal, but I'm shooting for a much better kit price AND custom upgrades! And considering I had L-Rider down to only $20 for the LT itself (no kit), then there's another supplier out there that will do the same!!

Are we having fun yet?

Cool, I stumbled onto a pitbull of a negotiator here!!! -I love the way you flush out the sneakiness before they even dream of getting away with scamming you! (ok, they can dream . . .) I am starting (?) to hope you really enjoy negotiating just for s&g, because it looks like you are in for another truckload!! I have the pitifully easy job of sitting back and hoping it works out for me to get inexpensive goods. My admiration for your dedication to getting this to work grows every time I visit this thread! "We're not worthy, We're not worthy . . . ." :) :)

Summary to date.

L-Rider: T/T (wire transfer) $30/ box kit w/optional carrying case kit for the same price (18650 or 18350). A kit must be purchased to get a $20 back-up LT....OR, a 500 kit MOQ met for custom orders. 500 kit MOQ options available are 2 additonal colors, red & silver. Custom paint, anodized aluminum caps, variable battery extension for 18350 mini were on the negotiation table as viable upgrades. Spare parts and replacement voltage regulators were also a possibility, but no further price or options negotiations have been made past this point due to "shady" information and outright refusal of payment options.

Uniq: Paypal $36.50/carrying case kit (18650 or 18350), MOQ is 10 sets just to order. No other options negotiated at this point due to "shady" information and outright refusal of payment options.....unknown if price is negotiable.

Waiting for several suppliers to respond with wholesale spreadsheets and contact information.

Here's a picture from Green Sound Hi-Tech....what they advertise as an LT, but is called a Superbomb.

Everything you see here is what actually comes in the kit, but the devise itself is NOT an LT!!

Paypal is accepted.

Sample purchase is (1) kit for $100, which includes same specs as an LT (probably the same regulator, just different design).
(1) 312 3ml atomizer, (1) dual 4ml atomizer, (1) 900 maH battery, (1) 1600 maH battery, (1) adapter. Any information beyond the spreadsheet is unknown. No discussions have taken place yet.

Order MOQ is 500 sets

Confirming my interest for 2 total, one of each if possible but either way is fine. The price is too good.

:confused: I don't know how you keep all this straight Shek. I'll just keep checking in and hopefully someone will say "Just send money " ... I do appreciate all your effort. Keep up the good work!

That's okay Corpa, keep checking back...I'm working hard for ya! :)

I'm trying to get special upgrades that NOBODY currently selling the LT has available. Which means that you (hopefully) will have a wide variety of options to choose from. And there are several VERY good reasons for doing it this way.

One of the main reasons is to get the supplier and/or manufacturer to custom build your LT. Which means that the manufacturer will take a serious loss if they send a defect.....cuz it's tailored specifically for us. Sure, I could negotiate an order an "off-the-shelf" LT, but then it's a crap shoot and you could get a dud, but I'd much rather avoid that scenario or rejecting merchandise and praying they send a functional one back??

This coop is difficult, no doubt about it.....
