I live in the united states, on the DX website (where I got my violet) it says all over the place that being in the US prevents me from purchasing amything over ~5 mW. That, is maddening! I'm not about to go spend 500+ dollars for something similar in portable form from skylasers of dragonlasers, and wicked, for me anyway, is out of the question because of price... So does anyone know if I can slip them a few more dollars or something??? My best friend would love one of these as well, I'll be doing a sort of group buy locally here in cville... That is, if I can get these to the "land of the free" without the Nazi customs agents taking all my stuff.

-thanks.

Ah, I see. Are they reputable? And will shipping be decent? My violet took an eternity to get over here.

O-like is very good... shipping is a gamble, I just got an order and it only took 8 days. Though I have heard of things taking a lot longer. Your best bet is to pay an extra $4 and have them ship the batteries and charger separate that way customs can't test the output of the lasers.
 
Well, the shipping times are long, being from east (and i cannot be a paragon, cause here anything from east market become stopped from custom offices with no reasons for 20 or 30 days :p), but all the times i buyed from them, til now, i always got my items .....

Also, they are very comunicative (Susie have an account also here as "standstone11", and you can chat with them in skype too), and opposite to other sellers, if you ask, they accept to ship your items dismantled in two packages (paying some $ more for the double shipping, ofcourse), so also a pointer that, in a single piece, will probably become confiscated from custom office as illegal, can be shipped in parts as "spare parts" or similar, and not become confiscated ..... (about the laws that ban pointers over a certain power, but not the same powers if the lasers if selled as spare parts or oem parts)



Edit: Nefarious, also ask to ship the battery tube in the second package, so the custom office can't try them with their own batteries ;)

Good point! I haven't had a problem yet, but that sounds like a good idea, especially for larger orders.
 
Thank you all for the help, this helps me and all my friends' pockets alot haha. This is an expensive hobby.
