For Sale: NOS Yellow 594.1nm 4.1mW HeNe -SOLD-

[Mattronium]

Congrats on getting a sweet HeNe at a super price; enjoy! :beer:

Your welcome... ooh, were you referring to me, because if not, you should be:na:.

I didn't post here, just used PM's.

I honestly am surprised it didn't sell long before now, even at $400. I actually told someone that I though that it would for sure sell within the first day it was posted, clearly I was wrong. I bought my current 1.7mw 594.1nm with Ultimatekaiser's GB at 300 for just the tube, which is still a decent deal.

Sorry tuskiomi, I hope you find a 594.1nm HeNe for as good a price:beer:.

I had thought it was tuskiomi, but congrats to you sir; whoever snagged this baby got themselves a very nice laser!
PS - At least you kept it in the State.

Yep, Mattronium messaged me first.

Yeah I'm surprised it didn't sell at 400 too, but oh well. The drastic laser market dropout in recent years is why I stopped flipping them. I used to make good cash restoring old HeNes and making controllers for argons. FWIW I bought this yellow for $550 + shipping.

I was surprised it didn't sell in 1 or 2 days, also, It took a while to sell.
THe market is not there at moment. End of summer vacation and get kids ready to go back to school month and so on, I guess.

Nice to see it found a good home with someone who knows and appreciates HeNe.

Yeah I'd never sell a yellow that nice for that low personally. They're like 2400 bucks new, surplus they're still a good 7-800 bucks. The only reason they're disappearing is because dpss lab setups are finally reaching comparable cost. They're still a great low cost quality lab laser. turnkey supplies alone are like 300 bucks. I bought mine for 400 and it's similar in power. 300 bucks for a system is a steal.
