bootleg2go,
Would you mind clarifying which company you represent?
Or even better, include it in your sig?
He runs Optotronics.

I'm fine with the fact that it happened. I'm not fine with a lie to cover it.
Didn't another company recently have problems with lying? I forget. :angel:

You never told a lie to someone about something that was none of their business? IMO its the only excuse for lying.
WL is a totally other story, and and has nothing to do with this situation.
Sounds like he just did a copy and paste. Something we all have done to one extent or another. There is no copyright, so its a common practice, right or wrong.
Jack, you're biased in this. I see your points, but you are the competition. I would think the only person who has the right to bitch would be DX. You're rallying a linch mob, and the only 'crime' is plagiarism. And once again, is not frowned upon in China.
So far John has been honest, given out coupons, free prizes, and has backed up his word with returns of underspec lasers. He is trying hard to learn as much about lasers as all of us. He is even getting a LPM (from one of OUR members) to be honest about specs. To me these are the important issues, not if he copied and pasted a paragraph or two. He owes no one an explanation of how he set up the web page. If he was in the US, then maybe you'd have a point, but he is not. And some simple plagiarism (which is permissible in his country) is not going to stop anyone from buying onspec lasers at a good price.
You're making a mountain out of a mole hill.
Hi Toke,This whole tread suddenly makes a lot more sense.

Nah..I said my piece. Its up to the individual what they care about most, paganism, or onspec cheap lasers.
I know John said he was going to buy a laserbee meter, but he never said it would be used to make sure people got the power level they order. For instance, if his meter shows the power to be 50mw, will it be sold as a 50mw, 100mw or 150mw; what will the use of the meter really be, if they are not going to be sold based on the what the meter reading is?
I think it's a waste to buy a meter, test the lasers; then sell them as they were marked from the factory in the qst place.
Sorry for the rant, but deception pisses me off, why not just be an honest business .
Hi Jerry,We finally found an Asian seller that will ship to the USA.....
and gives good Customer Service and seems to be honorable..
And a few of you are whining and nitpicking about where he got
his Website templates...
Who F#@king cares... if he blatantly lies to a customer about
his products then I say... We have a problem...
I couldn't care less if he wears one Blue sock and one Red sock...
that's his business...
If any member does not trust John7788 or what he has presented
to the Forum.... DON'T BUY FROM THE SITE..... buy from DX if you think
it's the same...
I just placed an order from there site... I'm not worried...
BTW.... I didn't know that bootleg2go = Optronics CEO
An indication in your Sig or Member Profile would help...
Jerry
Hi Jerry,
I agree, I could care less how he dresses which side of the bed he gets out of.
All I wanted to know was why the deception regarding the DX & PA being the same entity with different names.
I do care about the theft of IP from other websites, much as you would if someone copied your site word for word and then sold the same products you do.
I just looked at my profile and my homepage in my profile is Optotronics Laser Products
It's been in the profile from day 1 since I joined 4 years ago or so.
It's just not in my sig because I don't feel right producing free advertising to my website in every post I make; but if everyone thinks I should, I will put it back in my sig (took it out a couple years back).
Like I said, I'm not a daily or sometimes even monthly poster here, just 500 posts in 4 years; but I thought most old timers that have been here more than a couple years would know who I am, Avery and most if not all the mods know.
Hi Jerry,There is absolutely nothing wrong in placing your company link
in your Sig... The admin has recently stated that we can....
I agree with you that if someone would copy our website word for
word and then sold the same products... I would be taking care
of it (since it effects me personally and financially)..... not a third
uninvolved party...
Jerry
