Meh, if you sell for less than him you're the lesser of two evils. Just bombard your customers with laser jargon and teh munies will come. :D

What if the people you're selling those lasers to ever happen to find out about DX and accuse you of taking advantage of them? The chance of just one of them finding the site isn't too small and the situation will become even tougher if you're selling those to friends!

Isn't the divergence a matter of the lens used, and therefore changeable?

for what it's worth, at least in my country, EMS, FedEx, UPS, and other express shipments get searched a lot more often, customs pays more attention to the paperwork, and I always end up with an extra $20-$50 charge for anything valued over $20... for some reason regular parcel post just flies through customs and I've never gotten any sort of customs fees or COD charges.

In fact, I once placed two orders off ebay on the same day, from the same area of california, one through UPS express delivery (3-4 buis days - $35), and one through USPS parcel post (2-3 weeks - $12)... The UPS delivery got held up at customs for a week, the USPS parcel arrived first... when the UPS parcel arrived I was forced to pay an extra $30. :-\

You should charge more for the "balloon popping" lasers. When I told my friends that my red laser burned leather and dark plastics their eyes got big. If they had any money, I could probably sell it to them for $200.

Yes but what will you do if they find out about you selling the laser at 400% of its price?

They aren't going to find out. Most people don't spend their time searching for Chinese websites where they can buy cheap lasers. Even if they do find Dx you can always lie and say that you bought the lasers before the price dropped so low.

they are probably never gonna find out.....they're already buying it at more than 400% their price....

by the way, i am selling a product, if you buy then it's because you agreed to pay the price, nobody forces you to buy it.

Haha, I totally agree with that! But if the person you were selling to was someone close to you, then maybe you'd have a harder time telling him that you got advantage of him.

Just a thought.

the real secret is to maintain it as a SECRET.
the less people you tell how much it cost you, the less problems you will get.

still, i am putting the selling price, if you still buy it its really not my problem once you pay (not that i dont care about my customers, but its not my fault if they decide to buy from me!)

Even if they find the site, they don't speak English in Argentina so they won't understand anything, and if Argentina is anything like Mexico......trust me, people won't find out. ;D

@VI: what did u do? the "wicked" thing? dont ever dare say it again!! :)P)

@Chido: haha there are some people who know english, it's that not all of them will go and look for cheaper lasers, as the website i am gonna post them is recognized as a place where you find everything cheaper ;)
