$40 for a 12x diode - SF-BW512 - Arrived Today

It will be some time before I actually put these into working builds. However, the $39.99 SW-BW512 sleds I ordered below, have arrived:
New SF-BW512 Laser pickup has 12x Laser Diode sled - eBay (item 280617090776 end time Feb-15-11 06:57:38 PST)

January 17th - Purchased
January 31st - Arrived in Canada

Very fast shipping for a product coming from Hong Kong. I'm very impressed. From the looks of things, the sleds are brand new and untouched. They were packaged quite well - individually inside static bag, which were then wrapped in bubble wrap, and placed inside individual boxes. Then the two boxes were jointly packaged in more padding, and placed inside a decently sized cardboard box.

A 12x sled, for $40. Shipping was $6 on the first sled, and $3 on the second.

Sorry to say....that is SOME extensive...."don't ship to" list, with that many countries they may have been better off saying only the countries they DO ship to.:san:


Edit:
Not very WorldWide!...lol and after all that they just group a whole hemisphere and continent in one!....."Africa, Central America and Caribbean, South America"

Arrived today for me too

Just received another batch of 405nm sleds from buyhubforu on eBay (same seller as above), and again, great sleds - brand new, very pleasant fellow to deal with

It looks like he's relisted them for the same price again:
