Why is everyone raging back and forth here.
After attempting to get through this thread without tearing my eyeballs out:
1) Who cares if its WL. It's an expensive 5mW laser. Let people buy what they want if they don't take suggestions, forcing anything down peoples throats only leads to threads like these. I too would take a core over an ebay pen. I dunno how powerful they are now, but its likely they're not doing more than 5mW, with wicked's reputation anywho
2) lunasigma - its the internet, nothing good comes from getting upset with someone else from things in real life in an unrelated topic
3) livinloud - if you have problems with another member, just leave them be.
4) at the both of you - calm your butts down. Walk away from the situation and return only when you have cool heads.
5) who cares about neg rep. The rep system on the whole doesn't mean a damned thing with the exception of showing new members who turn out to be scammers, plain idiots or jerks.
Good day

Edit: for benur
The arctics came out that year, sales got flooded, "in another two weeks" every two weeks, most showing up underspec, then a recall on them, many problems arose etc. etc.
I can acknowledge they may be a better company nowadays, however being a part of that experience has lost my interest (and many others here) in being one of their customers.
