On a more serious note, Offroad, again, thanks for your effort and time. If you plan to do this again, please keep me in mind as I would like to get something in a 532 of higher pwr! I'll need time to plan and scrimp!

Going to be a while before I can splurge like this again. Hopefully we'll see some more new products from Skylasers by the time the next GB rolls around. If this one is as successful as the first, no reason that there won't be a 3rd.

I'm kind of looking forward to doing a skylasers vs lazerer vs o-like review of their green lasers :shhh:

Me too. These groupbuys wreck havoc on my bankaccount. I have other bills to pay. :)

Yup, this is a rather huge expense for me... worth it, but still, if present me told past me that I would spend $600 on lasers in one shot, past me would probably kick present me. Will be interesting to see how future me reacts :tinfoil:

Re: CLOSED! Taking payments. ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

^How many days til Christmas again:rolleyes:
So, it looks like we should officially be closed, paid and Offroad will be sending in the order:takeit:
Impressed that there appears to have been only one holdout. Great job everyone:wave:
Really have no ides what the timeline is for the rest of this. Kind of figuring another month.
Got to occupy myself with what I have. Currently experimenting on a bunch of ebay overspec pens. I had ordered a 3 pack of 405,532,650 and (5) 532 and (5) 405 back the end of November and somehow they went to my daughters college address thru paypal by accident and there was noone to send them on until last week. Got them yesterday and the results are interesting. The 3 pack was a great bang for buck with a 107mw 532nm, 128mw 650nm and a 100mw 405nm:D
The (5) 532nm ranged from 16-57mw and the (5) 405nm were very consistent between 72 and 80mw. Hard to beat 5 bucks a piece with free shipping.:yh:
Messing around with a single 10440 with dummy cell and also cut down 2 405's on both ends to make the pens into stubbys at about 3.75" long. Appear so far to be able to even handle the 4.2v full charge. Hey, if they get fried, I have alot more. The 405's don't have adjustable pots. Can sure burn stuff if you want though after adjusting the lens:shhh:
Anyone wants to know which seller I purchased form let me know:p
Don't know what's up with the ebay 650's I've got but the 3 I have are 102, 121 and 128mw :eek::yh:
All of teh 650's purchased as part of 3 color packs and not seperate units. Oh yeah, all of the 405's come labelled at <50mw
Kind of scarry these things are selling like hot cakes to kids:(

i don't think it will take a month to get our lasers. when we had the group buy last time when my laser was shipped fedex i had it in 3 days. also all the lasers we where ordering where instock for the most part or there weren't included (PL-532 700mw). so i'm thinking it won't be to long.

Re: CLOSED! Taking payments. ROUND 2!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Well, the original goal was to have this taken care of before chinese new year. That's three weeks away btw.

Based on last GB, it will probably take about a week after payment, for skylasers to send out the lasers. Hopefully Offroad can send payment today, if not tomorrow. After that another few days for the lasers to arrive.

So super best case scenario would be to start receiving lasers late next week imo. More likely it will be the week after.

Sweet got it :wave: No we wait for IE. I think he is sleeping now :tired:

GaryM is notified about the payment. He was not online for 3 weeks i mailed him got no response but he has been online again to watch this thread. So i am doubting if we need to wait for him as it was simple for him to post if he still wants to participate or not.

Greetings,,
I still need to pay. Your email went into my junk email so I'm working on the payment now. Please hold off, I'll be in touch in a few...

This is pretty impressive, if there is not a single drop out from the GB :D

Now come on hurry up Gary... we're all dying for our lasers :p

Edit: Much better :D :wave:

There is always room for more Lasers and Jello.
