I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a direct from China 50 watt fiber laser I have no clue how to ensure 1 I get anything for my Ebay purchase and 2 get the laser through customs and FDA ( it emits radiation must go FDA) does anyone here do importing or have knowledge of how to do all of this?

You're going to need a broker, UPS and FedEx usually can take care of you but it will cost you more money. Is this a personal item or is it for a business? You will be taxed accordingly. If you have a business license give FedEx trade networks a call. Regardless of who EBAY is using for a shipper you can pick your own broker and go with them. Trust me when I say this call a broker before you buy and have it shipped and they will tell you how much grief you may have to go through.

Those lasers are junk.
You're way better off looking for a LaserStar or other domestic machine on the used market. A 100w LaserStar with a busted screen just went thru eBay for $600. I missed it, or I'd of bought it. I have a 200w Laserstar now, but at that price, you'd not go wrong.
