H4 LED headlight anyone??

[dan filipi]

I happened across this LED H4 for the headlight $6 with shipping on ebay.
https://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Car-H4-3 ... 026wt_1161

102 LED's.
What the heck, I can afford to loose $6 to be guinea pig.

There are others on that same page like 2 for $9 and less.

That link shows $1 + $3.95 SH.

Sounds too good to be true. I guess you only lose that much. Or is this some sort of fraud to get your eBay account info?

I heard that there are power LEDs nowadays but they come with a heatsink (that means they are not as efficient as "regular" LEDs)
This one is just a direct plugin to H4 with any extra hardware, correct?

Hmmmmmmmm....

 

[dan filipi]

Yes direct plug in.

It does sound too good to be true even at the higher cost H4 LED's available on Ebay but now chasrogers ordered 2 of them so we'll have more than one opinion how they look.

I also ordered 2 of the H4 120 LED's shortly after, total for all 3 was $16.

For that price I ordered 5! Let's see how they work. :thanks:

I want the plug and play lamp kuryakin sells but I am going to order from China direct.

 

[dan filipi]

Just got the shipping confirmation for mine.

Coming from China.

China? Yikes... They tend to make things waaay to cheap over there... the quality suffers :headscratch:

Well it's pretty dang hard to find anything NOT made in China anymore.

 

[skiri251]

I ordered two just in case. :hihihi:

 

[slabghost]

Mine are enroute now so should be here in a week or two.

 

[skiri251]

Mine is on the way also. It says 12~18 business days.
This is from Hong Kong so maybe slightly bettrer than mainland China?

I bought cheapo HID kits from Hong Kong (also through eBay) a few years ago and they arrived and worked as described. But this one is insanely cheap. How can you make a profit on $1 item?

 

[slabghost]

They don't combine shipping cost.

 

[skiri251]

S+H is only $3.95 per item so I don't see huge profit there. Actually $3.95 is also really cheap for international postage.

Been to a Chinese restaurant lately? :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy:
Around here, it's all mexicans cooking.... :smilie_happy:

Even boxed shipping within the us cheapest I've found is USPS at $5

Now I started to worry..
I can't think of any good reason why this guy is selling this for these prices..

You can't have cheap shipping even from China, can you?
Unless you use a balloon or bottle cast out to the sea.

 

[dan filipi]

Yeah maybe this is some multi level marketing scam, ya know get one dollar from millions of people!
In this case $1 plus shipping.

I used paypal dispute a few times in the past. If this is a scam, I hope I can get my money back with that process.
Again, if this is a scam, maybe the guy is counting on people not bother going through the dispure process.
