...I need another milestone, dammit!!!
Sigh... I know good things take time & so when you were building our lasers you never heard a peep from me, but delays due to Customs (and Chinese New Years' four-weeks-long holidays...) manage to rattle my cage (along with yours and everyone else's here)
But thanks for keeping us posted along the way; that day will come soon and then maybe the next milestone after that will be my DX order(s)... :

I did call the customs yes.
I asked for the status of my package(s), the woman said "processing" (after 10 minutes of waiting for her to get back). I asked WHEN they might be done with processing, she said "they are being processed".
I'm sorry but i don't have the good news just yet.
Cross your fingers and hope for the best!

Ok, let's look on the bright side...
The battery situation will be solved, one or two days is just one or two days...
But after that, i only need ~6 more 6x orders, and i'm there, i can start the lens GB!
6 more lasers, how hard can that be.. Compared to the first two 6x batches, that's a piece of cake..

My DX order SHIPPED.
It's like I could cry or something. I won't, I'm just saying. :'(
Igor - ship my laser, no need to wait on customs or batteries - your laser and my DX order should arrive about the same time I'm guessing... sent you an email that said the same thing, per your instructions.
All the customs issues, DX issues,... - some poor balloons are really gonna take the heat when the 6x arrives.
The PayPal issue was probably as you described a few posts back... one was the 'authorization' and the other the actual 'transfer'. PayPal shows it as one, my CC company showed it as 2 - which is why the 1st magically dropped off. It was confusing since PayPal did not show the same thing, I trust Visa over PayPal, they just have a different way of showing 'actual' vs 'pending' charges. It was resolved (not with my help), and BTW for anyone who uses Visa THROUGH PayPal - that's the end of any protection services that Visa provides. They consider it a double transaction - only their transfer TO PP is covered, not from PP to DX. :-?
I'm about as patient a guy as they come, but I have had some VERY disappointing luck with Chinese suppliers in the past, to the tune of several thousand dollars. The thought of losing one cent to China was maddening. **EDIT** LOL as I type this I just got a DX email from DX customer service, from a week ago. They must have just been hit in the mouth by the holiday. I'll remember that and adjust my patience with them accordingly...

Ok, anyone else want to cancel battery request, just let me know, but if you can wait a day or two, your laser will be shipped with batteries. I don't want anyone to loose their mind over having a laser but no batteries.. :

How long do your packages usually take to arrive in the US?

Hey Igor, ignore the emails I sent you lol, I still want the laser, but it will be a couple of days until I have the money.

Did not realize that - is there a customs reason for that? Or just a "this-is-easier-this-way" reason? Either way - no need to hold my laser, DX shipped and all is right with the world. Except the Great Depression #2. And my stomach hurts. That is all!

Ha ha, guys, I'm not so rich, I simply copied Igor sentence modifying it from 6 to 5 ;D (this means I just sent him an order for ONE BR ).
I really hope that some more friends will purchase the other 5 BR 6x lasers, just to give to Igor the possibility to start the lens GB....; and what I can confirm is that Igor lasers are really exceptional, so who buys one of them has all the reasons to be happy for the purchase!
