DC-K40III and other Chinese lasers

Hi,

I'm looking at this machine on eBay. I know it isn't the greatest quality from what others have said. I need something to build on.

They claim 3 to 6 days delivery from China. Has anyone found this to be true or not true.

What problems or fees will there be when the item reaches Customs?

Anyone have one in the US that they are interested in selling?

Any other Chinese or American laser engravers that fall in the general price range?

Lots questions I know. I greatly appreciate your input

Lyle

You are not going to find anything in that price range. I've heard that you generally have to rebuild large portions of those machines to get them working. I think the machine you are asking about is in the 600$ range (but im not sure?). If you get a working tube, power supply and optics you have gotten a deal even if the entire rest of the machine is trashed.

The cheapest I would go is probably around 2000$ if I expected something that would work out of the box.
