Back around 1990 AD ;), I had this somewhat rectangular laser pointer, and I'm hoping somebody here has seen one and could perhaps be persuaded to part with it for a reasonable price.
.
It could use either two AAA cells or three N cells, it had an emission wavelength of 670nm at ~3mW, and had a red LED emission indicator just in front of its momentary membrane-style switch on the upper surface of its body.

It was shaped a bit like a slightly "swollen" rectangle with straight sides (the upper and lower surfaces were slightly bowed outward); predominantly colored black with a bright red plastic front end cap and bright red, wide plastic pocket clip.

Has anybody seen an old diode laser pointer like this?

It did indeed look very, very similar to that!!! :)
But I don't believe it was labelled as "Laserex" brand - though there is a possibility I could be mistaken. The "business-end" of the unit was a dead ringer to the "business-end" of this Laserex. And the overall shape of the pointer was identical.

You know, Laserex does kind of ring a bell here. :)
