I have been thrilled with the quality of stuff they carry as well as their service. I have recommended them on many occasions.



I've made several orders and received them quickly as well.

Unfortunately, I guess I might as well air my complaints as well since this thread is a perfect place (safe space?) for sniveling.

A bunch of years ago I ordered and received a nice moderately priced binocular.....solid and sturdy. It even held up to some deep sub-zero temps. Unfortunately the crappy thing bounced however. It was also a sinker. Consequently when it bounced out of the unzipped bag on my snowmachine while traversing the deep powder of an uphill slope, that piece of junk flipped out of the bag while I wasn't looking and landed in waste deep powder, undoubtedly sinking to terra firma somewhere along a 200 yard stretch. I looked, but the sneaky thing didn't even make a track. I didn't even bother to call Doug, Where can a guy get good customer service these days????

Some time later I ordered a cheaper pair of Minolta binocs for the cabin....grab and go type glass, the kind of glass you don't mind losing...which is why you never do. Well, these were no good either. Yeah, they worked just fine for awhile. My single-digit-aged boys could pick them up, use them readily, set them down somewhere, and they never got lost. But then one time we stalked a bear downhill through 3/4 miles of some of the deepest tundra tussocks one would care to negotiate on foot. Those young guys were great, but half-way back up the hill, we had to stop to rest. Those damned glasses got lazy and refused to follow when we started again.

I reckon both of those lazy, good-for-nothing binoculars are still out there somewhere, probably bitching like some of the ner-do-wells who post here.

Doug.......or somebody....really ought to up their game. Sheesh! grin

Shoot Customers straight and if a glitch happens,simply fhuqking own it. Communication is cheap and go ahead and use at least SOME. Hint.

I apparently missed a call and don't/live die by my phone like most,so am Delete HAPPY. Had a PM here too,that I only saw minutes ago,because I hadn't logged in,as I've been busy chasin' schit.

SWAG included and I caught myself laffin'! Goods were well packaged and that never ain't not a good thang.

The Mafia threw in a case and it's appreciated.

The ceiling has crashed,winds are beyond Sporty,but I could still get 912yds in my socks,looking through the opened front door in this atmosphere. That SMOKES the last Leica piece of fhuqking schit Geovid I received,so there is HOPE. No fingers pointed at CL there,that was ALL fhuqling Leica.

Now we'll see if the bitches can handle some reel use. Pun be intended.

Bushie is supposed to be flingin' me a LTRSi,to replace my failed LRHSi and we'll see if that comes to fruition,given Nature's course.

Film at 11:00....peace out.


Thanks for the update. I'd been curious about how it would turn out and how much 'fire (under CL and burning here) would be needed. Let us know how the product ends up performing and how the Bushie response/product factors out....as I've several of them and haven't had an obvious problem with them but just don't trust anything anymore.

Doug, will there be a deep discount on those...........................like a negative balance on my account towards the purchase of my next item? I'm all for it and will take both if that's the case.


Otherwise................sell them to a birder to use on the refuge there on the west end of the Island.

I bought a scope from Doug this week, he gave me a great deal, couldn't have been easier to work with and I had it in less than 3 days. Next one I buy will be from him.

I remember way back when, when Stick and a few others here were trying to cause a big stink about Doug aligning himself with this and a few other sites. They didn't want him here period. Turned out Camera Land being here worked out great and I believe even Stick fell in line and purchased from them.

That was a lot of years ago...

I thought that was all about the fellow that fancied himself and his rifles?


Buggered if I can remember his name but he had a boof head and excelled at posing for any camera in the vicinity.

Yeah. We're way too busy bashing Stick here because he's wondering where his binoculars are after 3 months.

Priorities.
