I just got my $2.95 laser from motel268 on ebay. I just told him I wasn't going to accept a refund and that I wasn't buying his stories and he finally agreed to send it. It looks decent, better than I was expecting. I really haven't measured divergence or anything yet and I don't have a power meter to test power but I would assume that it is over 5mW by a little bit. The beam is really nice, no line-like output that I've grown used to with diode lasers. Anyway, here are the pics!
Here is how it was packaged, it was split in half and wrapped in bubble wrap. The envelope is the "bubble wrap type" too.
It was marked as laser pointer, I guess I'm lucky they didn't check it!
There is a small scratch on the silver aperture ring, but its not too noticeable.
Blue!!
See how nice the dot looks?
Overall I am really happy with this thing so far, I'll keep you all posted if it breaks or starts acting funny. I would defiantly pay $10-12 for one of these again, and I would recommend them to any bluray noobies like myself
