Yeah it seems their prices are to good to be true. Might be a scam page, considering its a UK company selling illegal lasers.

Found this dealextreme ripoff site Deal Experts - Gadgets at the right price, Wholesale - Wii, Xbox, Xbox 360, DS, DSI, FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE

Anyone tried it? It is cheaper than dealextreme.

Im thinking of buying True 100mW Green Laser Pointer Pen Black - Deal Experts

It seems liek a huge scam. 11£ for true green 100mw with coupon code.

Hey LZR,

I think you will be massively disappointed if you order from these guys. It looks like a UK registered company that is actually based in China. Not a good sign. I would not expect optical output to be any where near 100mW, (even including IR!).

I would save a little more cash and go see Jon at Odicforce. Get a waterproof host for £10 and a 100mW module for just over £46, batteries and charger and you'll have a very nice 100mW laser. I've just had a 12mm power checked module, (this is standard), from Jon, (I was using O-like but needed one in a hurry), and am really quite pleased! I will be doing a review on this very nice module soon and the figures initially look very, very promising.

Yeah it seems their prices are to good to be true. Might be a scam page, considering its a UK company selling illegal lasers.

Hey TJ,

As long as the correct safety information is supplied, I believe they can sell lasers at that power in the UK but I'm trying to clarify that for myself for sure under general legislation. It might be illegal to sell them on Ebay above 5mW though? Does that sound more like it?

Did you use Paypal? If you used a CC wait 10 minutes to see if it goes through and then change your info. Dont wait.

Thats good, at least you have some protection.

It might have not logged in their system yet. Maybe wait a little while and check again.

He has stopped answering my emails now, so i opened a dispute at paypal, and reported the site to paypal. He has been involved in some game server scam before.

Interesting... Nice catch and the b@lls to check it out!

When you get your money back, go see Jon at Odicforce, he's UK and kosher for sure! :crackup:

Wow, i got my money back after some googleling and facebooking with the msn address on the website( he has now removed it, lol).
I found this guy named Chris 'chrissie' Brydges on facebook, made a fake facebook account and sent him some messages. He refused that he owned the site, and kept on telling me he had sold an old server company to them a long time ago. I started to believe him.

But there where many signs he still runs it.
On facebook he has a picture of himself playing paintball, and on dealexperts you can find this
And on this facebook site you can see Chris has posted that he sells a custom tippman 98.

So today i sent him a pretty angry mail including his address, ip, and some pictures of him from facebook. Strangely dealexperts contacted me 15 mins later and said they would refund my order. How convenient.

So even though i got my money back, this is clearly a SCam, no legit site is posting a 39% discount code on the startpage when the products already is way under priced.
