Atleast some good came out of that, you are at the right place now.. Get your self some nice laser from the b/s/t sections.. If you do like to have a high power laser (which i think u do) buy a decent eye gear for protection of your retinas..
Welcome and have fun :beer:

If they would do a little research before buying
a Laser they would surely find this Forum before
they plunk down their $$$.

I just looked at the website.
Actually their products, prices, & specs don't seem to bad.
They are not selling 3000mw greens for $29 or anything like some places.
I have no experience with them but their advertising seems reasonable.
Of course that doesn't mean much if you don't get what you sent for or have poor service.
Actually I take some of that back looking a bit closer.
There is some obviously exaggerated stuff but not as bad as a lot of places.

Welcome to the forum 
I sympathies with you being ripped off, fortunately for me I have not yet been.
unfortunately though, I am too weary and so, I've actually not bought the powerful laser that I want, because I'm too afraid to spend so much, and then for it to not work or to break suddenly. And then there's the
"Do I want a 445nm or a 405nm"
"is there a good heat sink in this"
"will it last long/what's the duty cycle"
I guess there's such a thing as being too cautious too. (and indecisive) to the point that you never actually get what you want
I wish there was a way to try before you buy

Find a builder nearby and hop on a plane...
OR
Attend a meetup. Look up Selem 2012 for example.

Welcome to the forums! It sucks to hear that you've been ripped off. Hopefully it's a valuable lesson learned for yourself.

Molly-- more help & Better comes if you fill out your profile- that advice and much more is in the post above from Lasersbee...
@Laserbuddy
If its quality /long life span and good duty/rest cycle you must expect to pay more-
The GBs here may be your best choice- See my Jetlasers threads and also check out the second round of SkyLaser GB. Kits form members is a good way to learn- even if its just a JADD or JAD-- detress sales from members here are often a place to find a bargain. but not if you dont do some research- look at rep score-friend list a and post count.
