Okay people, let me explain. I will not say sorry to Dr Tony, but I am sorry for saying he was a scammer and that I apologize. I posted this thread after talking to a friend late last night (whos been in the laser business since March 2010) who was originally on lpfs. After discussing much about the laser pointer Dr Tony constructed for me, it was deemed less than the value of my IE800s, apparently you can 2W diodes here at lpf for only a hundred bucks, and Tony claims he got it for $500. Of course I had to believe my friend, I've only known Tony through gumtree and emailing. So then my friend got curious about the doctor, decided to do a quick background check and found out he was only in forums 4 months ago, claiming he knows nothing about lasers. Furthermore Tony joined because his WL Arctic was experiencing problems and thought they were rubbish.
At this point, I felt like I was getting ripped off by a guy who claims to be a doctor (online) knows nothing about lasers yet I gave him my $1200 earphones.
Furthermore I stumble on one of his threads, that looks exactly like my laser pointer I sent him and he's selling it. In my self defense, it looks like he was scamming me from all the background check I've done with him. I didn't know how else to get my lasers, but gumtree as they are hard to be imported into AUS. And gumtree is apparently known for scamming especially with fake phones, but I decided to take a bullet.
Anyhow I posted this thread, but Tony wasn't responding to my email when I was questioning the quality of my laser, when he usually replies within minutes. I thought he knew I was onto him, so decided I had no choice, but to seek laserpointforums for help. If I didn't call him a scammer, would it have gotten the attention? No. I had a right to use my own voice to solve a potential fraud (In my pov). After a couple more emails, Tony still didn't reply until late last night, but I had already started the thread.
In the email, Tony has said sorry and mistook me for another person who wished to sell his laser. If I didn't search lpf, I would have lost my laser and I actually would have thought he was a scammer. So in the end it was his fault for posting my laser to sell, and in my self defense I had a right to use lpf to seek the attention and see if he really were a good person. A doctor doesn't mean he or she is a good person, but alas I'm wrong and sorry for saying he was a scammer, but not sorry to Tony, because he did post my laser for sale. A dcotor doesn't just make mistakes, a single mistake can be deadly for eg here. What else could I have done, if I indeed waited I could have lost my laser. Impatient, maybe...... but the faster this thread got attention the quicker it could have solved the issue.
TONY IS A GOOD FELLOW, just that everyone makes mistakes right? Sigh..... I hope this sorts everything and why I did what I done. Thanks everyone and I apologise for the mistake I caused and I hope Tony can do a formal apology here as well.
Aye, and when all this is sorted out, we'll chat to admin about changing your offensive name.
Come on... Even you should know having the word c*nt in your username isn't acceptable.
