priceangles no lasers over 5mW:(

[rpaloalto]

Anybody notice priceangles.com no longer sells any lasers over 5mW. In fact they only have a handful of lasers even being offered.

First honest john cuts out and now this

Kinda sucks, I have ordered several cheapie lasers from them and have always been happy.

Dx wont sell to the US, so now it's back to dino i guess?

They've probably been hit with customs seizures , and then the inevetable paypal cases.

Drat! And I just got their focusable 200mw green, and was going to buy another! :cryyy:

Today is truly a sad day...

Buy 1 from O-Like ?

Sure I have lots of stuff from O-Like. But what I want are the supper cheap /fun deals found on DX.
Priceangles was my DX for super cheap crappy pointers since I'm in the US
It's always fun to order a super under-spec 1.2gigawat green/447nm laser penn for only $19.99. Then wait 3 weeks for a mystery package to arrive from the Orient.

That is how I do. I order stuff all the time and just forget about it. Every day is a new surprise especially the ones that take several months to arrive.

I actually just got a pretty sick BOKER knife in the mail today that I had forgotten about from DX.:san:

Or even the random items that burst into flames are fun as well.:gun:

Thats the fun of it. Its all so cheap, I order something at least every 3 weeks.
I have a endless supply of cheap trinkets coming in the mail.
I guess it's just satisfaction getting something in the mail other then junk-mail or bills.

Bills make us unhappy.
So we buy something to make us happy.
For which they send us another bill.

I sense a flaw.

Apologies for the largeish bump, but I found out that PriceAngels IS still selling high-powered lasers, but with two changes:
1: To view the laser product page you must be a registered member
2: You must have the product page either bookmarked or in your wish list to find it, as they are not actually listed/searchable through the product listings.

For example, log in and then click this link: http://www.priceangels.com/200mw-532nm-Focusable-Mid-Open-Green-Laser-Pointer-Pen-2-AAA-Included--s79100.html

On this topic, does anyone have more of their laser product pages bookmarked? I only had a handful of them in my wish list. :undecided:

 

[laserhead2112]

And also focalprice seems to have removed about 20 pages of there lasers...I ordered. Two 200mw greens from them last week and now they are not there anymore.

 

[AllanJH]

Same with DinoDirect. All their high-powered lasers are GONE.

 

[rpaloalto]

Sad for us in the USA, gone are the days of ordering tons of cheap lasers
Wonder if this is the FDA cracking down on paypal. That was the reason DX stopped selling high power lasers to the us in the first place.

These places depend on paypal for accepting payments from customers. If paypal were to say we cant do business with you because you sell items that are illegal in the US. There going to pull those products before they loose paypal.

 

[laserhead2112]

Well that just sucks. I want crappy cheap lasers...I hope I get the ones I ordered they did ship with tracking..

 

[AllanJH]

Heh... Land of the Free... What a crock!

 

[robertkoa]

I was just thinking of getting either a 5omw focusable or possibly a 100mw cheapie somewhere and just joined this site yesterday for info etc.

Looks like I may have to move quickly.

Were these even cheaper than the ones on Lazerer ?

 

[random person]

Interesting... hopefully our precious blue diodes don't become illegal to sell/buy on the market. Does ebay / paypal whine over diodes?
