How come that shipping from Canada is so expensive?
Can't you just send it back with regular airmail (+tracking number)?
No need for insurance IMO.
I packaged the laser and got a precise quote from the post office. The options that are trackable from Canada to China are:
Priority Envelope - $87.63 - 5 business days
Xpresspost International - $68.86 - 8 business days
Surface Parcel - $42.34 - 2 months
Waiting to see what DL offers to cover.

Please use normal air mail shipping method. Which is cheap and shipping
fast. It usually takes about $25 to ship it to us in china from the USA.
I am sorry we do not cover any customers return shipping cost.
Sincerely Yours.

July 6 - Just heard from DragonLasers - Here's what they've said.
Well, I'm not in the USA, I'm in Canada... strike one.
And both DinoDirect and DealExtreme have covered the return shipping for lasers and flashlights they've sold.... so really, DragonLasers won't cover the return shipping on a $600 laser that came 50% under-spec?
Not impressed.
Wow, I used to swear by dragon lasers. Now I'm all like wtf.
Were you speaking to Frank? He's usually the only person that handles emails.
I dealt with Frank to purchase the laser, and I have been CCing him on my email replies. However, it is not Frank handling this RMA / defect issue.
Damn I'm sorry to hear this. Up until I found this thread last week, I would have sworn by them. I purchased a 125mW viper back in 2009 which still runs at advertised output. I would ultimately blame CNI for this (Since DL = CNI reseller), but I don't even see this particular model on CNI's website. Either way all of this could have been avoided with a simple 60 second test on their end before shipping.
I may investigate a dispute through Paypal. I'm not 100% on that yet, and I'll give them (or Frank) and opportunity to respond to my latest email insisting that they cover return shipping costs.
Yeah.... the shipping costs from Canada are a biach.... ...:cryyy:
Even if you open a PP claim and win... you will STILL need to
pay the Insured...Tracked and Signature required return shipping.
