Did you get alum end caps or colored?

I have a 5v gvl2 with a Nebula Green body and chrome end-caps. I'm liking it very much. I find that for LR atties it does burn quite a bit hotter than I expected, so I flutter the button and it's all good. I just happen to have the LR's laying around - time to order some regulars now that I'm 5v enabled again :)

When did you order yours. That would give me some idea when I might expect mine. What was your order #?

I ordered October 2nd. At first, a couple of weeks ago, GLV's 15 day policy seemed like it may have come through, but then came the horrible "waiting for batteries and chargers" which delayed shipping by another almost full week. Great Lakes says they want a 5 day turnaround, and I hope they get to that point. Right now, from my experience, all I can say is it seems to be 3 weeks if you don't order batteries and 4 weeks or so if you do and they happen to be out of stock.

So, if I hadn't of ordered batteries and a charger, I think I would have gotten mine within the 15 day promise (assuming that 15 days means 15 business days).

Ok, good to know, thanks. I didn't order batteries or charger so hopefully I won't have to wait more than 3 wks but holy crap that's a long time. I had no idea that it would take so long but Hairball said that it would but I guess I blocked that out because I didn't want to hear it. :(
