I don't have easy access to DHL or EMS...best I am willing to do is USPS, which is probably cheaper anyways...I think this will easily fit into a small flat rate box..when I have a minute I will check the rate for you but you can easily do that yourself if you don't want to wait for me. Just go to the USPS website and find the rate for a small flat rate box to your location from 73507.

Sincerely,
Jmillerdoc
 
Looking t the box size I doubt it will fit into a small flat rate...I thought there was other sizes ...it is bigger than 1 5/8" in diameter....that leaves the medium size which is 47 bucks...I may be able to squeeze it into a small box but it wouldn't have any protection and I wouldn't take responsibility for its safe arrival that way...it would bulge the box out a bit and I am not even sure they would allow that...I am willing to try it of you wish...price there is $17.....probably a bad idea but again, I am willing to try it....

I ended up shipping mine in a medium priority box, in the original box it came in, with bubble wrap around that. The don't care if it bulges a little bit, but it's not really worth it to have it arrive potentially damaged imo.
 
Yes, the international USPS services are always tracked...

I looked into DHL...they wanted over $200!
 
Gonna close the bidding tonight at midnight...current high bid is $175...please PM me well before midnight with any additional offers, I will post the close of the sale and the highest offer shortly after midnight.

As far as posting LPM videos...too difficult. I will, however be glad to supply an .xls file from my LaserBee via email if needed and a printed version can be included with the delivered laser.

Thanks for all the inquiries

How is the dot? Does it have a lot of splash or is it clean?
 
OK, current high bid is at $180....I woke up at 4:50 and my shift started at 5 so I didn't have the time to pull the files off my home computer. I will get them out to the interested parties in the morning when I get home.

I dont have anymore pics at the moment but this host is perfect. Also, the dot has a tiny amount of splash with the dazzler gaurd but with it removed it has no splash, operates in TEM00. There is a small glass lens on the inside of the dazzler gaurd, one just to keep the dust out...probably has a little grime or smudge on it.....but as said, there is a tiny amount of splash that I doubt I could even take a picture of but it completely dissapears when you remove the dazzler gaurd altogether....my other laser host is exactly like this one and does the same thing.

Ok, I got the same high bid at the same time just before close...$185, but one was with shipping and the other did not mention shipping. I am partially at fault here for not implicitly stating whether or not the price included shipping. Since there were only two people at the end bidding the same price (offroadfreak and Humphry) I am closing this sale to all others and going to let these two make a final offer by noon tomorrow my time. I should add that the laser will go to the person who nets me the highest...so please include your highest price and whether or not you want me to cover shipping. This is a final sealed bid..not like eBay, just let me know what you are willing to pay and the winner gets it. Again, I am limiting this final closed bid to the two mentioned above because they slipped in the highest bid at the last minute which was the same price, $185.
I appreciate all the interest! Also,I will send additional pics and LPM readings tomorrow morning via email to the two above...if you're not satisfied with what I email, you are welcome to retract any offer you made (I am pretty confident I what I have said and submitted is a full disclosure and additional pics and LPM readings will be what I have stated all along).
Cheers!
 
This lasers sold...for now I will keep the winning party's identity private...they can post their purchase details if they choose to. Final sale price was $185. As soon as I am paid I will donate $50 to the forum...depending on the fees incurred by the individual who got the bum deal by Lasersman I may be giving a little more to the forum.

I appreciate everyone's interest, thanks for keeping it easy and cool.

Just FYI, I sent a video to the winner showing a average of around 440mw with a peak of 460mw at 170 seconds...one of the better runs it has done. Should give him plenty of good green fun!

Cheers!
 
I'm bummed about how this turned out for all involved. Good on you for helping out the forum (particularly those involved here).

As a side note, I had another dental appointment, and thus another opportunity to pay at one of the four potential sources of compromise. When I was there this week, I realized that my dentist's office uses a chip reader, not a stripe reader, so the number couldn't have been compromised there. Since this is a chip card, literally the only place the compromise could have occurred, is Google, Godaddy, or LasersMan.

Well.... it's not 100% conclusive, but I know which of the three I suspect ;)

Very kind gesture on your part and a great deal for the winner...less than $0.50 per mW...
 
Ok,
Money has been paid to me and already distributed as promised to affected parties. LPF got $50 so far. I will be mailing the laser out in the morning.

Yes, I agree...a very nice laser for a very good price. Everyone wins this time except Lasersman who unfortunately put all this in play when they simply refused to do what was right.

I am going to take one last jab at this "company" Lasersman AKA Dinodirect....maybe their shill is tuned in and will report back (not that it will help)...

LPKath, nice person, helpful, but ultimately had hands tied by Lasersman...I like you and I am sorry you represent such a sorry company...you should consider going to work for Olike...I will personally write a letter of recommendation...

Lasersman, well....it's simple....you suck and your policies are lies...you should have done the right thing from the beginning but you didn't....what happened...you lost a
Laser AND your money, but worse than that, you lost customers and your reputation.
You could have turned a bad situation into a positive one (like I have tried to do here) and gained loyalty and new customers and higher sales...how silly and foolish of you! Sad really.

I am done exposing Lasersman....

Jmillerdoc is happy today...hope y'all are too!
 
RHD...why bummed? Seems to me it turned out pretty good in the end....
I hope you will continue to arrange group buys.
