Cheap 80mW lasers, anything to cheer for?

[vvisoo]

I just got a newsletter from Chinavasion about an 80mW laser pointer for the cheap price of 60$(USD) + shipping, which looks like a damn good price.
Any idea if this would even be worth a purchase?

It can be a good deal, but you would need to find out if the laser contains a proper IR filter or not. Otherwise it's mostly IR making up the 80mW. Also not sure how it's output is rated either - average or peak...but the IR filter would be my first concern.
