Phone number sent.

BTW, every time I go on this thread or when I see your posts I get momentarily mesmerized by the sliding cat that resembles a ferret. It has become normal to watch it go by 3-4 times before moving on each time...

I know it is hypnotizing isn't it :D never changing that one :p

On with the news! First of all my apologies for this delay due to the phone numbers, i did not know this was required.. :tinfoil:

I still need the phone number from the following members:

Daftyetpunk
TSTEELE93
ALEXIZUPINHEA
AndrewProgrammer
Brucemir
Smeerworst
Kauai

Please pm asap :)

EDIT: i also sent pm's to notify you guys about this. And guys i promise i wont stalk you :)

I have also sent my phone number.

There have been times where I watched the cat slide around for more than five minutes straight... Do you guys think I have a problem?

Ehrm *cough*cough* I only have a mobile number personally.

I mean I suppose my office number would work, but I don't really consider that to be a personal number:p

I notice the cat and the dog just look at so nonchalantly like it happens all the time

Cat and dog in the background: "Dafuq?"

Side note, I would think kevin would have:
1. Included the paypal fees in his price quote to you in the beginning
2. Noted that phone numbers were required in the beginning
3. Waved the phone number requirement when he forgot for the sake of not keeping everyone held up
4. Be quick in his responses to a $2K+ mass buy in favor of speeding it along

That being said, his prices are good which I am grateful for. He just has a little work on the customer service side of things. He might also consider coming on here himself to talk to the people directly since this is THE laser forum to rule all laser forums. I think his sales would increase if he took a couple small steps to boost up customer service like that.

Just my 2 cents on the situation. Plus I'm practically bouncing in my seat waiting for the laser XD

I dont quite agres with on some points. He refered to using a bank transfer which is free. However i have all the money on my paypal balance and it takes ages to send that to my bank account and then it takes ages formhim to receive it.

For his respons time i am really happy actually!! He is a busy man he takes care of all the mails from the company aswell as the sales. Still he finds the time to reply to all our questions within the day. (it is a company in china!!) most companies in my own country dont even have that service!

As for the telephone number, mistakes are human this was a small one for which i am to blame. I should of asked that.

Anyway on my point of view this is still going pretty smooth :D

Everything is going fine so far, and thank you to offroadfreak8582 for thinking of doing this, and all the effort you put in.

The *very* small setbacks so far are really nothing to worry about.

Compared to other group buys... this is going lightning fast.

So patience people... Patience.

Honestly, at this point, fair chance we might see lasers within 1 month of the GB start! That's unheard of... Most group buys take MONTHS.

Edit: I'm also very much for offroadfreak8582 using paypal. If for some reason sky doesn't come through, there is recourse for him... not likely to happen, but well, I like to hedge my bets.

Thanks for the nice comment! :) anyway i trust kevin 100% he has allways come throughwith everything and he is doing business the right way in my opinion. If it was all my money i would of sent it all as a gift because trust him. Cant do that with other peoples money though! I really like the paypal system. Only the sellers protection could be better sometimes

I agree, don't get me wrong this seems to be going great and any minor setbacks are just that, minor. What I stated was only my point of view on what could have been slightly better. I think my post was a little more... abrasive than I intended. There are a couple of things I was unaware of that offroadfreak mentioned and I was also kind of under the impression that skylasers was much smaller than it is.

And of course thank you again offroadfreak, I wouldn't have a high powered 532nm on order if it weren't for you. This GB has saved $1015.86 assuming everyone ended up paying in.

Off road, you are the man. I am pretty new to the forum, but after seeing how most of the people on the forum are, had no problem sending the payment as a gift. As I told you earlier, except for using PayPal using my bank a count, I never paid in any other way. Figuring out to to a Monetpack and charging my account, and paying as agiftvwas actually quite simple. I have ordered my lasers in e past from Dragon Lasers and that is also a process and takes time. I think you did us all a BIG favor doing this group buy. If you do anther one, count me in. thanks again!
