I just don't get it....

The diameter of those pipe fittings leads me to believe this can't just be a 20mw HeNe. Looks like it was designed for a very high flow rate, like something I would expect to find on a CO2 laser. (Although there isn't really much to go off for scale)

Except the fact it says Helium Neon on the warning label

I thought the price was idiotic until I saw how much they are quoting for postage; $1282.74 for worldwide postage. I could almost buy my own 747 for that and pick it up myself!!!

Where do you see that? When I view it it says, US $64.08 for the shipping. Which is still way too much for a piece of junk.

He lives in Australia, shows the same insane shipping price for me too.

How is it a piece of junk? Just because it's broken? If one on my HeNe's broke, I'd still keep it and not consider it junk

It's ebay. Anyone can try to sell anything they want for whatever price they wish. It's up to the buyer to take the risk or do the research.

I agree lasergal that it's a bit over priced

This is my all time favorite laser find on ebay! It really looks like it was stored in a barn or something. I think also that the best guess it's not working!.......(mice included for free!)

/\ /\ ... I saw that a while back, I like the fact that a cutting torch was used to remove the fan inlet.

^The fan outlet you mean? That's just tape.

You are right on both, my eyes aren't what they used to be. (diabetes is a beotch)

I thought instead of starting a new thread I would just post it here.


The "Farm Argon" as I like to refer to it as, is back up for sale. This is my All Time Favorite ebay laser find!:crackup:

Ah the old barn find again:crackup:

 

[LtKernelPanic]

Heh I saw an auction for an as is, untested ALC60x (something I wouldn't mind having myself) with a starting bid of $999.99.

LOL that argon really is in terrible shape. Free mice, cockroaches and garter snake with every order. Remove your free pets before firing up

I have also seen that one before.
