The buyer knew I was not going to ship immediately and we remained in contact during the tim between payment and shipment. I omitted these details from this thread as it felt it was too much detail not relevant to the point that the buyer agreed to accept all risks and reneged on that. In...
@thejoker Yes, I agree with you. I did it all wrong. I put trust in this guy and he reneged on our agreement. Your guidelines make a lot of sense and after this experience I 100% agree with you. For future sales I will handle this much differently and not extend any trust to the buyer. If the...
It's very disappointing when you make an agreement with someone, they break the agreement and other people then claim I was the one that was wrong. In the context of paypal's policies, I was wrong. But sending a laser under any conditions would be wrong so there would be no right way to send a...
OK this issue seems now to be sorted out. I just left the dispute open because there was nothing else for me to do. because of the shipping I used (canada post small packet air) there is no tracking or insurance and nothing canada post can do. I deposited enough back into my paypal account to...
In this case I wanted to help a new laser enthusiast out. He seemed to know his stuff and I wanted to find a good home the lasers I built. He bought one in the same manner of shipping as the second disputed one. He paid promptly and I shipped. He got it and was satisfied. Later he said his...
Thanks for all your help. I am reading the protection guidelines. there are two things that stand out in terms of what transactions paypal will protect for the buyer. two of the criteria that will result in no protection are "custom made items" and "items that violate paypal or ebay policies"...
I really wanted to make some lasers that take into account gaps that I have experienced myself with laser builds. so I set out to build some real quality 3W 9mm 445s using sinner's nice copper head hosts. I put considerable time into them, hand machining copper heat sinks for the build. I put...
All lasers in this post are SOLD. thanks everyone for your enthusiasm and repeat business. I am glad I was able to make some high performance lasers that meet your high expectations!
As per the previous post, I made them. I used copper shims. first I rough cut them with a diamond wheel. each pair had to be made as a pair to fit into the host in the right way. i wanted to have as much surface contact with the inside of the heatsink as possible. this required arduous hand...
Thanks for the feedback on the build post. they really are nice lasers thanks to sinner's great hosts.
The laser can focus to a point within a 1-2' distance from the aperture. you can simply focus it to a point and then move the focal point to within your take volume. it will focus at least 2'...
Hello everyone. Watching this buy/sell forum over the past months it seems like people are selling their lasers and otherwise are hard up for cash. Makes sense with prices going up so much and such a sluggish economy.
I've decided to slash my prices on these lasers. I've taken $50US off each...
If you consider that the prices including shipping, the extra lens and focus ring and 2 new AW batteries, that makes the price of the lasers themselves (with G2 lenses) $290, 280 and 270 - not bad for a well built 3W 9mm laser in a Sinner copper head host!
I am keeping one of these lasers...
Thanks Commandr. If you are interested in these lasers and want to make an offer feel free to do so. I am really proud of the build and the way the heat management is done. Those massive copper heads that Sinner created inspired me to get as much heat off the driver as possible to ensure stable...
:bumpit:
Take a look at the power charts for these lasers. They are very stable and very powerful. I use mine to light incense sticks. If you have any questions, want more pictures or details please don't hesitate to ask. Feel free to make offers as well. I'd like to get these out in the wild. :)
thanks very much. as for the dust... its just a speck of dust and not worth possible damage to the aperture. although a low risk, it is a risk and i didn't want to take it on these nice builds - i dont think it would result in that much of a power increase. I will try and blow it out using a...
