tango44 seems to have stopped replying to my emails but has posted both here and the multitool.org forums this week. :thumbdn:
Here's the original thread from the G&G Trading forum: Link
Here's the email copy of our communication from day 1 earliest is at the bottom due to hotmail's formatting:
Cliff Notes
tango44 keeps giving me the runaround starting on 4/26/08. First he had his wife mail it, then it was returned to him. Then he was going to mail it again, the he forgot for a week. No I guess he is back in Guatemala? He was supposed to ship 6/1/08, if he did it would have been here today, he's in Miami and I'm in south Alabama.
Here's the PM I sent him through multitool.org:
I guess that's all I can do right now. It really pisses me off because I had an offer for a SE ATR that I was seriously considering right after his offer with the GPS, should have taken that one instead.

I like the Pentagon X3, and all the items that you include, this has been my primary light for more than 2 years and I would like to have another one at home. Please Include all what you mention below and the O ring please and I will send to you the GPS ASAP.
I will include the original owners manual, Original Garmin nylon pouch and the unit with batteries.
I will ship via USPS.
Here is my address:
XXXX
Thanks again.
Jose.

Jose,
I have the original packaging, manual, lanyard and a spare polycarbonate lens (the stock lens in mineral glass). I also have included a 8 cell battuca battery carrier, it can hold 8 AA or 8 CR123A or 12 AAA cells. Included are 3 Surefire 123A cells. I think I have some spare O-rings I can throw in too.
Just to toss this out there if you are looking for more higher-end lights; I also have a Wolf-Eyes 9M Mini-Turbohead light. The clickie only functions as a twistie but included with the light are 5 spare lamps, 6 lamps total. It's a good light, not quite up to par with the Pentagonlight but it can run on Li-Ion cells and is just as bright.

Please let me know if you need to know anything else, there aren't many reviews out there of these two lights but I can give you a better idea of them if you want.

Oh, I'm in Montgomery, Alabama.

The Garmin XL12 is in great shape, is like new and it comes with the original users manual and nylon pouch, I never bought the PC cable.
Here are some pics.
What do you include with the X3?
Are you in the US?
Thanks.

Hi, I'm interested on the X3, I have the next Items for trade if you are interested.
- Leatherman Blast, brand new.
- Victorinox Swisschamp red, used.
- Garmin XL12 GPS UNIT. used
Please let me know.
Jose.
By the way I'm in Miami and you?
Here's the PM I sent him through multitool.org:
Hi,
Based on your email and username you're the same guy from Bladeforums that I traded a Pentagonlight X3 to for a GPS.
I'm still waiting on the GPS and a reply to my email with a tracking number from UPS. I'll pay the difference in charges between that and USPS I just want the tracking number so I know it's shipped.
Look, this has taken a month and a half and I feel I have been very patient. Either ship the darn thing to me or just let me know you aren't going to do it. I just want to know if you are attempting to pull some kind of fraud so I can take the necessary steps and get this over that much sooner.
I need the shipment number from UPS by this Friday 6/6/08 and I want the GPS in my hand by next Friday 6/14/08.
-R.D.
I guess that's all I can do right now. It really pisses me off because I had an offer for a SE ATR that I was seriously considering right after his offer with the GPS, should have taken that one instead.
