eurooptic is a chap called Alex Roy in the US and he is excellent. I bought an Elcan scope off the site about two years ago and just last month a Nightforce and his prices are fair, he ships promptly and he's very good to deal with.

How long does shipping from Alex normally take mate? I am about to buy a spotting scope off him. I am wanting it sent here in Oz and hes cool with that, but couldnt give me an idea on arrival times.

Had my Elcan in 9 days direct from Alex. NF took longer coz I used Ship2U to keep the costs down.

Alex used to have a great link on his site of all the assholes who owed him money. Some of it was big money too. He put up names, addresses, what was sold and even photos of these peoples homes etc. I think he'd even cut you in even if you recovered his money. The photos were usually of flash homes with boats and shit, so they weren't poor people, just assholes.

Yeah, mostly he was stung by c^nts where he sent them the goods on their word that the cheque was in the mail, or soon would be, or he sent them stuff on appro that the pricks just kept... His nice-guy ways were taken advantage of by out and out c^nts, some of them real ones (sheilas). So he's moderated his niceness but is still a fair trader. I'm glad a few others in NZ have found it worth while dealing with him. With the sort of quality gear he's selling, I have no concerns about private parallel import waranty support etc as I consider I'm most unlikely to ever need it and the savings are a more significant consideration. I saved NZ $480 on the NF scope I landed last month, after currency conversion, shipping and all tax and customs charges.
