New Group Buys Scheduled for next week !

What? You're charging more for the 16x diodes? Oh no! Outrage, such a selfish act! Incredible, are you trying to scam all of us poor laserists? Rip-off!
Oh, right, this is not the GB, now you're a seller, now you can do this


BIG j/k here, cause that's what everybody wanted you to do.
Still, it's cool to see a permanent page where one can order diodes, also pre-assembled (good for the lesser technical people, bad for the irresponsible Dumbnoobs), and to see that you get something for yourself out of these. Hope that will help to smooth your treasury secretary.

To all people thinking of it as unjust he is charging "more" that in the GB, before complaining consider this: bad luck. Nobody is forcing you to buy his (well-priced) diodes, go on and buy yourself some DVD burners and learn diode harvesting, the hard way. Or start your own GB. But don't complain that he is taking some dollars for his own efforts. And don't expect anyone to shove a laser up your AS5 for bargain, because that's not how it works in the real world, and what he did in the GBs was pure luck for us (participants).


Just in case anyone would agree with the first line of my posting...

Did people actually ask for a price hike? Ah should have gotten a few more in the days when they were only $14 apiece. Well since they are no longer GroupBuy diodes we should give them a new name. To continue the trend... how about Mary diodes?

Bob und Mary

The price hike was not only actually REQUESTED by forum members, but necessary as I have been ripped off to the sum of OVER $4.8 THOUSAND dollars from a previous distributor. That theft is being investigated, but I do not hold too much hope that I will recover anything from it. Anyways, glad to see that the shop is being well received - you WILL see changes every week, new items constantly, and STEADY pricing The included USPS First Class/Air Mail shipping that is included for free with every purchase costs $2.00 to use (minimum !) for postage, supplies, etc. Working it out with the mail carrier to be picking up items at my house, and buying a stamp machine thingy with scale so I do not even have to leave the house Of course I am STILL setup to ship out anything and everything via USPS Priority Mail, either Domestic, or Global. I want to thank ALL of you for your support through thick and thin almost all of you have been here from the start, and have made this a fun and exciting possibility for the future for me, and my family. NOW my wife {Karen} is becoming interested in my addictive hobby hehehehehehe Especially since it will start to pay the bills !

SenKat, I've sent you a couple of PM's but I don't think there getting thru for some reason. I bought 2 GB diodes from you a few weeks ago and I saw in the GB Diode thread that all were in route to us. I have not got mine in North Carolina yet and was wondering if I should have them by now?

Thanks,
Jason

Jason,

"Stuff" seems to be still trickling in all over the globe ATM, so I would not say for certain taht your items are lost just yet. Keep on top of this, and let me know (stonergl@gmail.com) if you have not received it by the weekend, and I will re-ship if needed.

Did you actually send me two Aixiz modules? Because your package arrived Thursday (thaksalot!), but only the diodes, no modules. Are they on their way?

I mean, no hurries, because I have some "spares", but I'll eventually need them, so just checking.
But a "5k scam", that sounds awful.

Yes, I actually mailed your stuff out We can take this to PM or email, instead of the general thread I think ;-)

The "Group Buys" have been extended into ongoing purchases for now....as long as everything works out well, everyone should be able to expect a nice long run on my site. I am having professional assistance with site design so the site does not hurt your eyes as much to look at it hehehehehehe ! I HATE the way it looks, but have come to the conclusion that I most definitely am NOT a web designer - I guess my "muse" is electronics, and not the HTML stuffs I thank everyone yet again for your continued suppport, you all are making this work - and work well ! Hats off to EVERYONE for your continued support and making this work for all !!!

Greg
