DHL JUST CALLED!! afaik OUR ENTIRE ORDER will be here later today 10/24. OOPS!!! I spoke too soon-box #1 IS here but the box containing our glasses is still coming.
Metering pics will be sent to all via yr private email(if you sent it to me at my gmail addy(hakzaw1) if in doubt send again along w/ yr mailng addy. If all looks good you can send your shipping cost to me then as a personal/payment owed for service. (my PP is snapplz also a gmail acct)

The box shipping from China was $100 so we split that 8 ways= 12.50 per laser. The domestic charge varies by size of your box needed. The, BTW, glasses will not fit in small box. I add only 1$ to all this for gas cash to make the 10 mile drive to the PO.
Insurance-tracking-2/3 day delivery- you will be lasing before the weekend for sure.
**************************************

EDIT UPDATE- the list has grown and the time to make your selection is here. SO CHOOSE AND SHOW ME THE MONEY!! PM ME for my mailing address for your USPS MO-bank check or personal check(that needs to go out asap in order to clear my bank)
If you have gotten a price different from the GB price list in post #2 or want a laser not listed I need you to copypasta your PMs from Gray and PM/fwd that to me. That is the only way to be sure of no mistakes.
Once the majority has chosen and we now move to phase three: the collection of the funds(NOT via PP-OK?)

If anyone has questions about the method of payment plz PM me.

note: unless requested otherwise, all PL-C lasers will be sent with altered circular key lock, which allows the removal of that key in both the 'on' and 'off' position.


There is no need to have the pin switch in the tailcap altered. The new flush fit pin can simply be just left in place-

HOWEVER

plz note that the 'on' red button found with the current PL-Cs is very touch sensitive and the laser can be turned on at times you may not desire.(like in a suitcase -bag- backpack - etc.) So I suggest that you ALWAYS either turn the laser off with the circular key, remove the tailcap pin, remove the battery(ies) or a combination of any two. ALWAYS store lasers in a place that youngsters cannot possibly gain access. If you do NOT they WILL be playing with them first chance they get.

You may request the key to be not altered. But plz do not wait until the last minute to inform me of this or any other special instructions--TY--hak



If you are looking at this thread for the very first time plz read all of it.

for more info see the many reviews of JETLASERS.

If you are not in the CONUS or Canada- DO add yourself to this list but also contact Gray at JETLASERS for availability and your cost to ship. Your choice(s) will be sent to you from JETLASERS- not me.




I am now taking names to add to the GB#6 'maybe' list- this atm will not be binding. The title of this thread will change as this GB goes thru the steps. So I suggest you do a subscription to it as you will be notified via email when things progress. To see how I host these GBs see any of the OPs from the first 5 GBs a few things have changed but basically this GB will be ran the same, especially this one which has pretty much all questions answered-so please do your own homework and ask me questions only after you have tried to find the answers yourself. The only request I have is to allow Gray and I to solve any issues you may encounter before posting complaints on the forums. AND when you can, please make a thread with your HONEST review of your new JETLASER item, plus a +rep for Gray would be a kind gesture too.

http://laserpointerforums.com/f55/j...ments-now-its-time-send-your-funds-64196.html


link to GB #5 OP- contains what is available ad GB prices. READ it slowly and throughly and look at all links provided within.

I do only PP for the shipping and handling costs. I do not use PP for the cost of your items unless you make arrangements with me in advance. So have your $$ ready ahead of time for your USPS MO(preferred)-bank or personal check.
If your personal check does not clear(or does not in time to send the $$ to JETLASER) it will be returned to you.


So be ready to send it early in the payment due period.


I would rather send a USPS MO to someone I know and trust than PP a stranger. I am no stranger on this forum. All items are shipped by me with full insurance and signed delivery confirmation for CONUS it will arrive in 2 to 3 biz days. Using this method has never failed me so far. You get to see your laser on my meters before you pay me for the shipping. Should you not like what you see I will refund you laser cost via USPS MO and re-sell it or return it to JETLASER. I ordinarally only ship to your CONFIRMED PP ADDY!!- no outside CONUS- Upon request I will now ship to Canada(but you choose the method of shiping and how you want the box labeled once it leaves my hands the rest is on you.-but SORRY--still no PO boxes-APOs -ETC-- I may ask you to PP 1$ for payment of goods in order to get your confirmed PP address and to be able to print your ship label.

Those outside of CONUS/Canada are fine for signing on for the GB#6, but you will pay JETL and receive your item directly from JETL. See Gray for your shipping costs and pricing. JETL only ships via DHL Express- very fast-very safe but not very cheap. 100% great shipping so far. Be penny wise not pound foolish- DHL Express is the smart choice.
There may be a additional shipping charge for an equal share per laser for the cost of China to Texas ship costs. In the past this has been as high as 14$ and a low 7$ and in a few GBs that shipping that was entirely paid by JETLASERS.


SO...
for now I have no exact date for the final days of this GB. I strongly suggest that you both PM me and post here to get on the list and do a subscription w/ email notification for this thread. There MAY be a limit to the number of items that we will be allowed to order, so don't count on jumping in at the very last minute. All those not in the CONUS/Canada must order the GB items directly from Gray but can be added to this GB lists --sorry its not my choice, but I have no intentions of getting in a jamb due to customs,the USA IRS, VAT, duty, or seizure of your items.

There are a few lasers in my possession from JETL that are new and FS.
Pricing is very close to that in the GB....PM me if you want a good deal on an overspec JETLASER and dont want to wait for this GB to close. My prices are firm so no lowball offers please.

cheers and Peace

BEAM< EXPANDER comes with choice of Pl-C/D or Ti pen mounts see my review-here better pics will follow-sorry)

Review: Jetlasers 3x and 5x beam expanders-these are quality optics and allow for lower divergance and burning abilities at greater distance.

3X--$130
5X ..$150
10X...$180-- NEW ITEM!
You must choose adapter for JETL B.E.s. PL-C or Ti. One adapter comes free with each BE.
***********************
All PL-C/D (et al) orders come with safety glasses or goggles, Charger. One pair circular keys- one wired tailcap dongle and one new style JETL cap pin- nice.
The PL-D uses no keys!!!(Confusis say:' man who lose key to girlfriends house gets no-new-key'.--PM me if you do not get the joke!):shhh:
For extra eyeware...
JETLASERS eyeware comes free with a laser order(you get the glasses style w/ the orange lenses unless you ask for a different type (ie the goggles style are better if you need to wear them over your eyeglasses or if you want any pair other than the orange lens--the blue lens are cool) --fairly good protection at a low price-very nice case- the orange are good for most all nms--starting at 23$w/ laser purchase or previous laser gotten. All others add shipping.
all above prices are for the GB ONLY--subject to change.
JETL lasers are NOT shipped w/ batteries due to new regs.
I still sell 18650s and chargers PM for details.



cheers hak

Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

You can put me on the list Hak, I'm in for sure just need some time to think about what I want to get...
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

I'm in, but like you said ill have to get Gray to post directly to me because of me being in the UK, I just need to find a damn paypal i can use as paypal won't accept my card.

For anyone wanting in... Hak is a decent honest forum member and your in very safe hands should you decide you want in :)
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

PL-C or D(takes two 16340s)
405nm (Violet/Br)
500mw >500mw 255$ -- 299-399$

sorry the 800mW is atm not available,

Do you know if the 800mW version is available yet?
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Do you know if the 800mW version is available yet?
I am not totally sure why but it is possible that some of the 12X diodes purchased by JETLASERS were in fact 10X. This is a possible explaination why they were unable to get consistant overspec mWs from the Pl-C 405/800.
It cost Jetl a lot to refund-or replace the 800s considering the shipping, this having to be done several times. Like I say I am not sure what happened by those making these descisions at JETL may just not want to offer more than the pl 405/500s and 405/300 Ti-Bs. I suggest you email or PM Gray directly for more info.

side note-
in another thread I suggested placing a sticky dot over the opening on PL-Ds and Ti-Bs (to keep out dust)but need to add that failure to remove this BEFORE turning the laser on could reesult in smoking the sticker and maybe even getting something on the front lens. SO ... take extra care in regards to this practice.

In Regards to JETL GBers not residing in CONUS- I need to still add you to the GB lists even tho your payment and shipping will be directly via Gray.

This is needed so Gray can know how many are wanting GB prices as his bosses can, and may, limit the number of units allowable per GB at any time. I am still here to answer questions and provide support but all other matters such as returns or repairs will be thru Gray at JETL.

ATM use the price list in the OP of JETL GB#5. All three nm (445/405/532) are now available in the Ti-Bs and this is one laser you will never want to sell. Ask any of those who were shown a demo of it in person at SELEM (PontiacG5- Rocket-daguin,aryntha, Dr Evil, and qumefox et al) all the LPF members attending SELEM were also offered a demo of the superswitch and using the code. IMO IIRC they were about 50/50 in regards to finding it easy to use. It does take practice.
Its purpose is to keep others from turning the laser on so by default it is designed to be NOT super easy. It called the SuperSwitch...NOT the SuperEasySwitch--lol

BTW it is not possible afaik to get the PL-D host with the PL-C switch.
But you MAY be able to get a PL-D with the switch code bypassed (IDK for sure) and also Gray tells me that he is working with his techs to change the switch to be able to us a more simple code.

@paul--thanks for the kind words.

I will put both you and Bob on the May-Be-Interested list.


I would like to see GB#6 take less time than the previouse GBs.
So kindly please begin to narrow your choices and be prepared for the next phase of GB #6 for all JETLASER Items- including very nice stands- Diff grates- BEs-glasses, goggles and more.

I think the two best sellers this time will be the Ti-Bs and the PL-C 532/250.
Consistantly overspec and reliability is even better with these than the other fine lasers.

Most questions are answered in the OPs of past JETL GBs.
plz look there before you PM me-T Y.

Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Depending on how much JL is charging for my repairs on my Ti-pen 200/532, I may consider a Ti-pen 20/635. Does that count as being included in the GB#6?
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Was in on the #2 GB, hak is an awesome guy to deal with and everything went super smooth.

Thinking of jumping on this one... Gonna send a PM with what I'm thinking...
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Im thinking you will like the 500-532- mine was very nice -OSpec >100mW
only $430 ( w/o eyeware) with charger and yr. warranty.
You can apply your refund and any cost for shipping not already refunded.

The superswitch is not so hard- takes some practice but..

BTW I no longer recommend a sticker over the apeture of the PL-Ds(they have no shutter) as, if left on, and the code is entered the laser comes on instantly and is not as quick to shut down as the PL_Cs are. so make a cap from something else to keep out the dust. You sure dont want to smoke a sticky dot onto the front lens.

I'm not a huge fan of the "superswitch" (I had a WL Arctic) but its not a dealbreaker.

Also, I'm not getting a refund. They are fixing my PL-C 250 and shipping it back to me. Then I'll decide on selling it (and my firedragon) to help pay for this one. I didn't know a refund was possible?
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Hak, do you know if the Ti-B will be offered in 532?
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

************************you have your choice of PL-C or PL-D same price.

*********OK I misunderstood. your call. About the refund -I cant say--just ask GRAY if that is an option or not at this time. *********


Hak, do you know if the Ti-B will be offered in 532?

**************One is being delivered asap to GDB in Canada(he missed the guy on Friday)
he opted for a partial refund as it is not quite 250mW- So Gray knowing this before shipping lowered the price and it is now a TI-B 532/200. Other sellers
would just ship and hope you never knew...

PM Gray about moar details on 532 Ti-Bs.

Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Ok Cool thanks hak :) I just wanted to know if I could get a Ti-B n a 532. GBD Had had told me about his and I'm waiting for his review :D
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

sorry, but im new to the jetlasers group buy
how many people do you usually need for this to go through?
and how long does it generally take from the "ok send money" to "laser at my door step"
thanks
im mostly interested in the PL-D 532nm 300mw 315$ for future jetlaser GB
(it looks like arctic)

EDIT: and for that price, is the googles, batts, charger included?
or is there an "add on" feature?
or do we have to get them separately?
thanks again

Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

Lens, I have email'ed Gray to be in this GB for the 20mw/635nm Ti-pen. You may want to add me to the list
 
Re: JETLASERS GB #6 Feeler

sorry, but im new to the jetlasers group buy

********* it varies-- for the JETL GBs, Gray and I just keep an eye on the list as it grows and when it feels right we move into the next phase.
Gray needs to keep his bosses at JETL happy- the whole idea from their standpoint is to get the lasers out so more will know about them and the customer service provided. This one may be the last- then the prices go back to retail, atm I do not know if there will be a JETL GB #7.*****


and how long does it generally take from the "ok send money" to "laser at my door step"
*************8
Once all the MO & bank checks have come in or the personal checks have cleared our money is bank transferred to Gray- IF all the lasers wanted are in stock he boxes them up and sends via DHL Express pdq- that takes up to five days to get to me, but one time I had them in hand in less than 72 hrs!

I inspect and test them, sending all a metering pic to thier Email addies and unless someone at the time declines I send them out- insured w/ signed delivery conf. with 2/3 day delivery. Never had anyone opt for the refund.
Refunds are sent in the form of a USPS MO- which, if you mess with one ,is AFAIK a federal offence IIRC.

I dont ask for the shipping cost until they are in my hands. I ask for that to be sent PP as a 'personal payment owed for service', which it is(no fee). I do not want to take payments for the lasers themselves via PP as I may someday down the road have to PROVE that these transactions were not part of a profit making biz. Anyone not comfortable with this is free to not get in on my GBs. Personally I would rather send a USPS MO to a friend or some one with good rep than a PP payment to a stranger. PP being a part of EekBay is more inclined to helpful to a buyer if it was for a Feebay deal for all others- not so much. Sellers using PP get scammed by some buyers so it is a two way street.
BTW I do not ship outside of CONUS or send to any address other than your PP confirmed one w/o prior approval. No APOs, PO Boxes etc.

************
I would NEVER recommend shipping for, out of USA, any over 5mW laser with the batteries in the same box- why make it any easier for someone to power it up and deem it unsafe?? We have even taken the extra cost to send no complete lasers in any one box(ie tailcaps in another box)

All JETLASER afaik come with glasses or goggles and a charger. Gray offers a 10$ discount if you decline the eye ware--- anyone getting Lasers needing 18650 batts can buy them from me and I will include them when I re-ship. They are also available from several other LPF members like Larry. There also may someday be a ban on Li batts being shipped.

Many answers to questions on my JETLASER GBs can be found in the OPs and other posts in my other JETL GBs.
Happy to help if you still have questions.
