Dude I negotiated with them too, but I cant remember why I didnt buy..there are at least dozen "legit" companies but no one can guarantee what kind of chips you will get.. If you are in USA timber and quantum or amare...

Ya if you"re in the US almost all sites have free shipping. I would recommend buying in the US.
I remember trying to order a light from the US and it was over $200 in shipping plus duties to Canada.

American lighting companies need to have a Canadian Distributors or place it on Amazon.ca especially with Homegrowing being legal in 4 months

personal purchases under $1600 duty free to US i think. it would be around $800 for 2 of the dimable CXB 3590 x 4

I think Panda is legit I follow his youtube channel

on a 900 USD purchase I think I had to pay $130CND in duties. I have no idea on US duties.
Just a tip. Use a credit card with very good consumer protections or at least paypal when dealing with purchases from China.
Good Luck

$900 for one light?

It looks good, BUT, no mention of led bins, which are important. .Cannabis responds best to highest bins.

actually I more or less found them after closing my post

Check out Amare Technologies RIU members get 25% discount. I have 3 of them

to canada?? wtf!! We in EU are evem more fckd,there is no reeal companies who sell led. g. lights, and those that sp are too overpriced, gtlreedy fuc*ers.. for ecsample amare and hgl EU representatives got much higher prices than US originals,like they dont get any discounts or fabric price..If there isnt mad shipping cost,it would be cheaper for me to order from us and pay 30% of customs... Obvious their logic is Rather sell 5 lights for 500€ than sell 14 for 390€…

Yep me me, I got a cree X2 in 3500k, then an X6 with 3500k in the two middles and 2700k in the four corners.
I love them. Pretty darn pricey. Nice to skip the DIY.
the Cree cxb3950 loses efficiency faster than other chips as you crank it up, bear in mind. You can find better these days easily.
