Re: 100mW Waterproof Green/Blue Laser $?? GB#3

$200 sounds a bit high for a 445 ~1W from China. But put me down on the interested list (blue). :whistle:
Got some solid numbers for you guys, the absolute cheapest I could go on the 1W blue right now would be $195 :( I'll try to talk down the price, but I'm not sure if I can. As for the 100mW green I'll be keeping Yob's GB#2 price of $68, once again I might be able to talk them down some more, but we'll need more orders.

These prices include shipping and PP fees.

You guys are going to send thousands of dollars to a guy with less than 70 posts in year, and rep of 3??? :thinking:

Thanks for the vote of confidince TJ. Is there any way I could prove to you I have no intention of scamming anyone ever?

On a more positive note, the only way to get the 1W blue any cheaper is to order 20... And the price would only drop $10...

I'm thinking of some possible solutions to this...

The only way I can think is to get someone else to do the Group Buy.

This is all through paypal. 10 orders is only $680. If this were a CNI GB I would be VERY careful but in this case the risk is minimal.

What about if a middle-man held the money in PayPal? As in, the money would never touch my PP account, but the middle-man would have to make the payment and create the shipments to the buyers. I would be all for this idea if any reputable members would be up for it.

Thanks Yob, but I can understand their concerns. It's really sad the forum is hit so bad with scammers. In my year on LPF, I know what T_J does to scammers, I'd hate to be one of those guys :p

EDIT: Updated price, lowered blue pricing :D

He had 10 orders opened up for blues, so there was 2K right there. Its changed now. Plus its easy to scam through PP.

Hey, do what you want. Nothing personal, but I wouldnt send money to someone no one knows, or has not enough time here so we can learn his character.

Yeah, I just had the 10 orders because I wasn't sure how popular they would be or what price they would be, but I highly doubt 10 people would order at the new price...

Like I said above, I understand your concerns and are willing to do anything reasonable to alleviate not only yours but anyone else's concerns on the forums of avoiding scammers to be allowed on the forum.

Just putting this out there, would you be interested in being the PP middleman in this transaction? I kinda like the idea of a more well known member dealing with the money while I deal with the more logistical side of things.

I agree that caution should be used when dealing with new members when transactions are involved. Sounds like he is willing to help out in any way he can aside from the payments if that is going to be an issue for too many people. I apologize I cannot run this one anymore guys. Maybe another vet can jump in. It is a good GB but I have way too much going on right now to try and throw this in the mix.

I would help you out, but I'm disabled. I cant have any big deposits in my account. I once got a check for $525 and they sent me forms to fill out, and threatened to take my benefits away. :yabbmad:

Also something for you to consider. The US tax laws have changed. You may have to file tax forms to the IRS explaining where the money came from, and pay taxes on it. So I'd look into that.
