"Is it a flood or a spotlight?"

It's a small round bulb so I'd call that a flood light I guess.

That's a great price (I just bought another for future use). all you guys should suck these up while they are available because they usually sell for twice that price.

I purchased (or paid for one) one thru Paypal and havn't received any acknowledgement or response. Is this seller legit?

Hey, don't put me in the middle of an eBay transaction between you and the seller. I said I have no interest in the deal. I'm only recommending that bus owners get this type of light and they were advertised at a great price. BTW, I bought one too and haven't heard from the seller either. I've done over 700 transactions on eBay and at least 25% of them don't include communication between the seller and me. For the majority things have always turned out well. Don't sweat it. Your light will come. After all, he sold all 25 he had in stock so that's a lot of work to get them all shipped.

Yea, I bought 3x of them....

If the seller uses Paypal for their shipping charges (small charge over the PO) then the buyer does get a notice with tracking numbers. But we all know USPS tracking number suck!

I'm guessing they use direct shipping services like PO or UPS....but they can use the buyers e-mail on those shipping services for notices too. I try if they are listed at eBay but....this seller isn't me!

Hey, I'm not. Don't get excited! I'm just checking to see if any of you guys that had ordered from him had heard back with any acknowledgement or even better yet with the actual light. I've done a lot of ebay purchasing also and usually there is some kind of confirmation.

5 people who bought them have already posted positives in the last 48 hours. He has 165 transactions with 100% positive. My guess is you'll get it in the next 48 hours.

I'm not worried about getting the light but I did email the seller asking if he had a couple more and I did not get a response. Some people are good with email and some aren't.

Just read that and went outside to check the mail box and there it was! Yea 8) It is real nice. 18-1/2' cord. Well made. First thought was epoxying a magnet on the back of the light to make it hands free handy. Then realized it already had a magnet. Did you see the neat waterproof seal on the leadin plug? Should have ordered two :wink:
