So I got it today (5-9). I didn't check my mail Saturday, so it could've been in there as early as 5-7. That makes 16-18 days from when I placed the order. Very reasonable for something coming from Asia. As for the units themselves, well, what can I say? They're the cheapest models they...

I used the live chat again. They confirmed that it was shipped out on 4-22.

Got an email from them yesterday it was shipped out.

Haven't paid them anything. I'm not an iDinor or whatever member. They never responded to my last email asking if I could have the coupon applied. I just used the live chat to cancel my order, and placed a new one with my coupon code. I was told I'll receive a refund in three business days...

They responded within 4 hours to my reply, which is pretty good.

I noticed a coupon code for $5 off a $15 order, and tried the live chat to see about applying it. No response there, so I sent an email. We'll see how long that takes. Edit: So I finally received a response about 53 hours later, which isn't 24-48 hours as they claimed. They said I can't use my...

I read a thread decrying them, so I've decided to roll the dice and order from them. I wasn't expecting amazing performance, so I ordered a 20mW 405nm, 5mW 650nm, and a 30mW 532 nm. Basically, the cheapest laser in each color category. I already own a 55mW 532nm Optotronics and a 100mW 650nm...

How do I focus it if I can't see the beam? I figured I would be able to see it with a digital camera because I know they are normally sensitive to IR, but it doesn't seem to be able to pick it up.

I'm a chem major with a concentration in energetic materials, so I've lost half my eyesight already. :-X

Well, you've convinced me. I'll buy one of the new style dildas, a cheap greenie (since mine died) and probably one of those IR lasers.

How are places like skylasers selling 100mW for $100 then?

Do they ship to the US? I know DX doesn't.

I've looked at a few sites so far such as skylasers and that new place, nitroxlasers. I'm just looking for the highest power, good quality handheld laser I can get for $100. I see that nitrox has a 240mW for $130, which seems kind of unrealistic. I already have a 55mW from Opto, so red is my...
