Re: My experience with SciFi lasers
I'd do a dispute as soon as you can.
Many people, myself included, have been waiting for months, and several of us seem to have been cut off from contact by Joker.
Nothing's going to happen in a few days, you might as well start the process now so it's...
Re: Just bought three lasers from Sci-Fi
Oh, that's too bad. I already bought my batteries (2 16340s), and I don't feel like returning them. Going to buy a Sanwu challenger, prolly.
Maybe next time I'll go for the Aspire. That carbon grip is definitely classy.
Now to hope Joker hasn't emptied. his Paypal account and disconnected his credit card from it.
Anyone know if Paypal provides insurance if that happens?
Re: Sci-Fi Lasers is a total joke!!!!

Re: Still waiting on lasers from Sci-Fi
I escalated my claim to a dispute yesterday. Joker hasn't responded to it yet.
I'm kind of hoping he doesn't, as if he doesn't respond in 'the allotted time' (as Paypal says), I get my money back hassle free.

Re: Just bought three lasers from Sci-Fi
That Aspire laser looks great! .. Can you take a screenshot of the page and send it to me?
My school's firewall, for some reason, blocks all sites that are hosted in China. Also my VPN is blocked.
Re: Just bought three lasers from Sci-Fi
The challenger looks wonderful, but $130 for the laser, engraving, and shipping is a little more than I want to spend. Do you know if Sanwu happens to have an LPF discount code like survivallaser does?
I've thought about it, but my soldering iron is...
I'd hesitate to buy anything from Joker.
His system is a mess, and there's been a ton of (rightly deserved) drama surrounding his business over the past week.
