I sent mine in right before the deadline.  I called last week and was told it will be September before I will see my check.

I would say that correlates with what they told me.  Knowing how this usually works, they will probably hold onto the money as long as they are permitted before sending out checks.  I would do the same in their shoes since every day that is delayed is more interest earned in some bank account for them.

I called them today twice, for a customer service related question, and no one  in any of their departments answered the phone.

Too bad I wasn't aware of the class action until after the fact.

After all of the business they lost and all the money they have to pay back; they are probably shut down.

Holographic sights are a tiny sliver of their business.  They aren't going away any time soon.  Perhaps it has something to do with the holiday.

Relax! I meant no harm.

I hope it isn't the case ( for several reasons)  but Its not unreasonable to assume that they are having financial difficulty right now. How could they not with  several government agencies, police departments across the country and tons of individuals, applying for refunds? ( And the bad publicity?)

Go look on eBay and auction sites and see how many guys are selling their EOTechs.

"The distribution process is scheduled to begin in the middle of September."

Previous response was that checks would start going out on the 7th of August...

Stop waisting your time looking on ebay & research this sight. It has all the answers to your questions. This way you can stop posting the same BS & figure out what you need to do for yourself. You talk of mounting your Eotech on the handguard to make room for magnifiers & NV, yet complain about the cost of a mount. Come on, get your shit straight. Hows that for relaxed...

They're doing alright.

Individual weapons sights are the least-expensive product they sell. L3 is basically a real-life Umbrella Corporation. This would be like if some giant paper & lumber conglomerate got caught lying about the toothpicks they manufacture, and offered a refund on any toothpicks manufactured during a certain timeframe. Their toothpicks are still being sold the whole time, and they could care less if anyone bought any. Sure they make a profit on them, but the majority of their profits are from other product lines.

Whos complaining about the cost of the mount?
I just can't see, at this time, buying a mount for an optic that I'm 50/50 for selling.  And I had a lot of recent expenses; so disposable income is tight right now. When I had more disposable income ( when I bought alot of my stuff) I bought what was considered the best stuff.  I own several LaRue mounts. Their stuff is second to none and they stand behind their stuff. I had a very minor mishap with a scope mount and they took excellent care of me. All I had to do was pay for shipping to them. No questions asked.

I called them on Tuesday for service; no answer. Called again on Wednesday and left a message. Called them again yesterday and left a second message.

Either they are bombarded with calls and choose not to answer or something else is going on.

I emailed them and got a response within a few days.  Below is the cut/paste:

The distribution process is scheduled to begin in the middle of September. This process can take up to a week, but class members can expect to receive their settlement benefit shortly thereafter.

Did anyone get confirmation on the eotech they sent to Foster?  I got nothing and may of lost my shipping receipt.  I have the claim number and asked about it via their online form but never heard back.  I should have sent it back earlier or just kept the damn thing.

I am sure L3 lost their ass on the EoTech acquisition, but L3 itself is a giant defense contractor.

L3 has nothing to do with the settlement. They won't be able to tell you anything. If you aren't working with Foster et al. you don't have anything going.

L3/EoTech being involved in refunds is long since passed.

I received a letter today about the class action. It gave me a discount code to enter for $25 my next Eotech.

This is separate from the refund I got for my Eotech 512 a year or two ago.

I received my check from Foster yesterday, 9/18.  I sent in a 512 dated October 2007 and received $434.  I am assuming it's $419 for the sight and $15 shipping.

I have posted in other threads, but if anyone is not going to use their voucher, I ask you send the code to me. I am trying to pull together enough codes to get a sight directly from EOTech to perform a full review for ARFCom. I will supply bullets, the gun, range time, camera a cooler with ice (or dry ice) and a portable heater to put a sight through the ringer.

Please consider it. I know there are at least a few who say they are going to throw the code right in the trash, but please let me use it for the benefit of the members here. I have 3 codes, including my own, and would like to get enough to at least procure a 512 from them for testing.

Thank you

I received my Foster settlement check today for $554.

There appears to be confusion on this thread.  The class action case by Foster is what is discussed, not L3.

Checks arrived earlier this week, four (4) discount codes arrived today @ $22.50 each. The problem is they are only good at www.eotechgear.com at grossly inflated prices. I purchased a new EOTech XPS3-0 today elsewhere because it was $150 cheaper than using my discount vouchers.

I guess I'll use the vouchers for EOTech swag.

Received my two settlement checks today - but one is for the wrong amount .

Has anyone returned a holosight that was sold with a magnifier?

I may have screwed up by returning the magnifier with the sight (they came as a package with nice foam cut outs for both in the box - figured I would need to return them together)  I returned what I thought was a MPO III , but only received funds for the EXPS 2-0 and not the G23 magnifier.

Probably my screw up by trying to do the right thing and return everything that came together in the original box.

I've contacted the Claims group in hopes of full compensation - no reason to have the magnifier if I don't have the sight, or at least return the magnifier to me.

Just wanted to know if anyone else did something similar.

Got my 2 checks and 2 vouchers today.  Sucks that the vouchers only work on the EoTech site though.

Today (9/22), I got a letter with a $22.50 voucher number.  No refund.  This is an insult.  No mention of anything else, so it's probably safe to say I got screwed royally on the deal.

Update:  (10/07) I actually got a check today for $414.  I must say I am surprised after the initial letter/voucher and no mention that there would be anything else.  I'm satisfied enough.  I hope they get (or have gotten) their gear squared away.
