!CLOSED!: THE "Skylaser" (laserBtB) groupbuy!

Yay! Im so Excited!

You guys might want to change your signatures seeing as how the GB is over

You know the saying : It ain't over till the fat lady sings.
If I hold the laser in my hands THEN the GB is over

LOL. Ok, I'll give you that

lol yeah it is not over till it is over

Anyway i expect more tracking numbers tomorrow

greetings,,

Do these have the baron written on them?

That would be very nice if they all shipped out tonight or tomorrow. And shipping estimates to the USA.

I don't know exactly what their stock is and i hope everything is shipped tomorrow anyway the more tracking numbers the better :beer: as soon as i got mail i will update you guys

greetings,,

Their tracking number website doesn't even work anyways

i see that's weird.. Two days ago it still worked. let me check

greetings,,

It hasn't worked for me ever since you sent me my tracking number

weird, i checked it once and i allready thought their page was kinda crappy but heck it worked.

Anyway i sent a email to kevin about it

No worries. I heard that Chinese tracking is never accurate anyways

Well, if I can base Chinese tracking on anything I see from DX I can say that it is crazy unreliable and almost never updates right. Once the package hits US soil I get amazing tracking as always but until then its useless. I have actually had Chinese tracking say that they were still processing when the package had already arrived in the US and was being routed over here. So yeah, highly accurate... right.

I don't really mind waiting TBH. If it means a little extra care is put into the lasers for final testing and tuning then by all means please take your time Skylasers. I have plenty of other lasers to occupy my time until then. Including three builds in progress

Slightly off topic, what do you guys think about me offering minimal cost lasers with M140s driven at 1.25A? I'm thinking I could make them in C6s with linear drivers and sell them for almost exactly cost which could be about $100(maybe less) shipped. At this point I wouldn't mind not making a profit because I love the community enough to do it for fun. I lack an LPM so I would not be able to verify outputs unless I added a small fee to ship them to someone who does for testing. Opinions?

Well, what does you make different then other c6 sellers? Also having no lpm makes it quite difficult for you to sell anything as power is quite important. My tips:

-Get a unique host
-Get a LPM
-Ask a little profit to keep the work fun

greetings,

Robin

Anyway a LPM is a must for anyone who want to sell lasers. You can't really sell laser with an unknown output.
