Selling Prometheus-465 (465mW Green Hand-held Laser)

I can manage to bring up at least $400. $1050 is much to high IMO.
For example, I bought my Sony Vaio FZ 11Z for $2600 two years ago, now I would get not more than $500 for it, but it is still in perfect condition!

I bought an Alienware for $4200 2 years ago, and no one would want to buy it for even $800 last year, :\
But computer technology advances way faster than lasers do.
Optotronics still sells them for the same price they have 2 years ago.
 
I'm pretty sure optotronics has lowered their prices since 2 years ago. But your point remains, technology drives the price of old technology very quickly.
 
That's still somewhat steep. You can get a 500mW RPL green laser through Scopeguy's CNI group buys for about $950 new, and those are usually overspec, so the 400mW one, at $700 is probably the comparable model.

And don't be too surprised if this doesn't just fly off the shelf. That's a bit of change by any measure.
 
:\ Okay, lowered to $750, this includes everything to make it work out of the package.
 
It costs less new


Somebody's got to be the mean guy.

Prices have come down significantly in the last year.

It is not uncommon to pay >$1 per mW for a used laser such as this.

In order to even generate any interest in this, you would have to drop below $500 for it.

Does that suck? -- Absolutely! Unfortunately, the very laser you are selling is available for less than that $500, as new, now.

How little it has been used is immaterial. New ones have not been used at all ;)

Peace,
dave

Hi Bionic-Badger, Scopeguy isn't offering any RPLs in his group buys at the moment, although he may have an Optotronics GB in future. You might mean he's offing a CNI 500mw in his GB.
I ran a couple of Viasho group buys serveral months ago, but the lasers offered are not RPLs.
I was / am offering the 500mw Viasho for $665
Here's the link.

btw, I have one of the 500mw ones left and it's in stock ready for immediate delivery. I ordered a couple extra so that just in case any of them had a problem on delivery to me, I would have an couple spares so that the customer wouldn't need to wait several weeks for replacement.

Oops, you're right, I thought they were the same thing.
 
It's been lonely, idling in it's own dark corner. I want it to be happier, with someone who will make better use with it.
