Agree is a lot of money for very llittle--just a CNI GLP 5mW pointer--host is OK looking for a pen but not a very good quality host + poor heat transfer.
Price is same as anyone reselling them--average nothing special there.
If you have to have one CNI GLP is the only game in town--only company that makes any yellow handhelds, so...
The problem is availability, you don't see them offered often--not many CNI retail resellers offer a GLP because of very little demand for low output power and high priced pen pointers .

Dragon Lasers currently offer a CNI GLP 5mW 589nm for $299 and A 20mW 589nm Spartan for $359 if 589nm will do --is more of a real yellow. So a little less expensive for a 5mW and same pirce for the much better host Spartan 20mW 589nm and 4X the output power of a GLP pen.
I would guess Dragon can order in 593.5nm from CNI if anyone wants one--they just have no demand for them so are not on their website--probably at same retail price as well----someone interested shoud ask and find out perhaps.

I spoke with Adam over at DL and they aren't doing any special orders atm. Honestly, the eBay seller which is mentioned above is your best bet IMO :)

I personally wouldn't want it just to get the wavelength. I would prefer a lab unit with a long coherence length in a higher power. It would, by these parameters, be far more stable.
