And he does not allow returns if your LD is DEAD.
Although with PayPal you "may" have some recourse.

Do not hold laser beam directly to the eye, even although the goggles.

Note: No returns accepted and without warranty. Because laser diodes are sensitive electronic components.

yeh....

Seller has 100% feedback and also writes

"Each diode is tested prior to shipment, and is packed in a sealed antistatic bag."

You probably also have an opportunity to get your money back through PayPal

Seems like a safe bet in my opinion

BUT you do realize that diode went for $58 including shipping and all you get with it is what, a crap lens and some cheapo uvex goggles you can get for 7 bucks? DTR sells M140 diodes for $45 free shipping AND he's a highly trusted member that has never sent anyone a dead diode unless they wanted it dead to murder it further :eg:

I wouldn't either, wayyyy too many variables and risks. It's not uncommon to not allow returns of bare LD's.
