ILDA Member Discount Program

One of the benefits of ILDA Membership is the Member Discount Program. You can get discounted rates on equipment and services from the Participating Merchants listed below. The savings can be significant; one Merchant in 2006 gave out USD $23,000 in discounts to fellow ILDA Members!

If you do business with the Participating Merchants, you may find that the discounts easily pay for your ILDA Membership. Similarly, if you are a seller who wants to offer discounts to ILDA Members, this may help increase your business.

• Lasertainment offers DPSS Laser tune ups for only $500.00. This includes evaluation, cleaning and realignment. This does not include parts or shipping.
       In 2006 Lasertainment moved into its new facility and just recently finished its all new clean room. We have owned and rebuilt many of the Nd:YAG Melles Griot laser systems. Our last one was only performing about 50mW and after cleaning and realignment, it is now doing 2.3 watts. We have found that the parts that are glued can shift out of alignment over time and as a result you lose a significant amount of power.
       If you have a DPSS laser that is out of warranty and not performing to specification. Lasertainment is now offering to all ILDA members a laser tune up.
        We do not stock parts and some parts are exclusive to Melles Griot only or the manufacture. Should your laser need more then the cleaning and realignment. We will evaluate the system and give you a recommendation. We will warranty our service only. If you send us a laser that has other problems we will not warranty them or be responsible for any other issues. www.lasertainment.com

• These should be available only to ILDA Members, and not be generally or routinely offered to non-members.
• Any discount offered should be 5% or more. For some items with high prices and low margins, a smaller discount would be acceptable since it could reflect significant savings.
