Title: Wicked Lasers Spyder III Arctic 1W Laser G2
Post by: jwzguy on August 20, 2011, 08:54:19 PM
Hey guys. Going to ebay this soon, but I thought it would be worth posting here first.

I bought one of these when they first came out:
http://www.wickedlasers.com/lasers/Spyder_III_Pro_Arctic_Series-96-37.html

Mine is in mint condition with less than 5 minutes of use. Has the smart switch and a security key. I haven't used it since I received it (tested it then) because the cheap battery charger broke instantly. (Hundreds of people had this problem.) I ordered a new battery and battery charger last night in order to sell it. Also has the protective glasses.

These are tough to get into the country, as US customs started freezing processing on every one they could find coming into the US last year. They did this by creatively losing paperwork filed by companies they knew were selling these products. This nonsense won't affect anyone buying one from a private citizen inside the US, and it's certainly not illegal to possess (unless you have some local laws against laser pointers.) I'm not shipping internationally.

60BTC shipped. Took me 8 months to receive mine initially. They go for more than this used, because of the problems with customs.
PM if interested.

edit: price updated

I'll give you a coin if you take a video of lighting some things on fire from >10 feet away. It does that, right?

Eight months for you to get it?!?! was it carried by a team of ants?

Why did you want it and now don't?

If you're serious, send a coin to the address in my sig and I'll get started on that.  ;)

It took so long because they were completely overwhelmed with orders, and apparently still back-ordered. Even after they started shipping, they had problems with some US customs offices taking matters into their own hands. (They are completely legal to import, but since some people -think- they shouldn't be, some customs offices decided to just do whatever they pleased.)

As far as to why I'm selling - I had a lot more $$ to play around with when I bought it. I'd rather have more of my assets in BTC right now though, and I didn't end up getting much use out of it.
