How should I go about getting a laser in Australia?

[SQUIDY]

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum and I’m coming in from Australia. As you probably know, it is a bit of a pain getting laser pointers into Australia.

So I am wondering if there are any online stores that sell to Australia reliably. Even stores that sell laser diodes and that kind of stuff would help ( I have been thinking of building my own laser). I have heard many different things about the laser pointer store and I haven’t been able to find a straight answer whether or not they are trustworthy.

Any information or experiences you guys have had with this kind of stuff would be appreciated. Thanks

I've never had any issues shipping to Australia.

I purchased from LaserPointerStore once and the laser has been working great. As far as I can tell they dont produce anything and are just a reseller of all sorts of different brands.

Thanks a lot mate I may try purchasing a laser from there first.

No issues shipping to Aus either. It helps to ship the laser disassembled as well without the battery
