Here's a 75KVDC .05µF capacitor from Plastic Inc. I'm sure you could talk to the guy about the price. At the moment, it's going for 295$/best offer. Sounds like a great deal to me. 120J at 75KV.
Here's the link -
If I could afford it, I would buy it. That is an amazing capacitor.

this guy seems to be selling off a lot of cheap laser stuff plus other things
Careful with those items guys. Alot are not what they appear to be. He also tends to buy all his stuff (laser optics) from another seller on ebay that he complains about on other forums (about the optics themselves being trash). He makes huge profits because people dont know any better. Alot of the optics also come from cheapo assemblies such as the xbox 360 laser drives. He deffinately leads you believe your getting something rare and $$$ for a fraction of the cost. He also doesnt say much when you ask him questions...I guess its just taking advantage of the idiots on ebay. Two great examples: His high power IR SMA collimators are a 3$ aixiz lens GLUED to an SMA connector. A high power IR laser diode will destroy this and likely itself from back reflections when the lens fails. Another example are his beam splitter cubes. They come right out of the xbox 360 drives people are selling for $19 that also includes a 405nm laser diode and a high power red laser diode. (Oh yea, he sells those seperately for a pretty penny too!)
So now your all in the know! Dont bid too high! Matt

It isn't his fault idiots bid 10x what is stuff is worth, the optics extracted from a ps3 laser deck clearly show the optical deck in the listing, and you have to request the parts be removed from it if you would like them suchly. His sma colminators work fine (even on the gigantic 40w laser diodes), and for $9.95 and free shipping what did you expect?
He exaggerates some of his listings, (a lot his auctions for nonlinear crystals are quite a stretch I will say), and his mounted 405nm diode are a bit of a scam, but the diode in it is a brand new diode, it would be nice if he ordered the diodes strait from the manufacture instead of extracting them out of an optical deck, but a laser diode is a laser diode and a block of KDP is a block of KDP
I have great luck with the stuff I have bought from him, he seems like a nice guy (one time he forgot to ship my item, so when I sent him a nag a week later he sent me a free glass colminator lens) trying to make money off his hobby (which I know may be against some of you guyses values, but then you really shouldn't be buying his stuff anyway )
In any case, check out I found him for his 355nm dpss lasers (feel free to bid on the powerchip lasers, the lcm ones are mine), but he also had a good amount of cheep pumps and whatnot.

I would say that he exaggerates more than he does good. His cheap SMA collimators NEVER go for $9.95 for one thing. Try to buy one off him outside of ebay and hell ask $50 or so since his go for $50-$75.00. I dont know how you got an Aixiz lens to work at 40watts. With just 20watts it broke on me.
He reminds me of Amazing1.com. Overhyped, overpriced. I bought a 405nm laser "assembly" from him just to get an extracted blueray diode glued into an aixiz module with plastic lens that had been partially melted. For $60 I was pissed off like a hornets nest that had a firecracker thrown into it. He also "forgot" all about my order even though I ordered around $150 worth of stuff. His answer was just, sorry. (Took nearly a month to get stuff in the mail). He sent some candy as a "sorry". Pshhh...
I still think hes to be avoided for most things...Its unsettling to see him complain about the quality of his OWN optics on other forums and then see them being sold on ebay. (From time to time, Ive seen an as-is item that I just knew was a bad optic that he KNEW was bad...)
And Im sure idiots wouldnt spend as much if they knew where HE got the stuff..."laser crystal from laser pointer" Matt
