I've been looking for a Kowa spotter for an upcoming hunt. Cameraland doesn't have it in stock. What are some other suppliers you've dealt with on optics that are credible? thanks much.

Cameraland, and Cameraland also...... Cameraland. I made personel and work purchases with them and they have always come through for me.

I’ve learned to call Camera Land first, because they always end up being my last call. Doug’s prices can’t be touched, and, as you can see, he is right here to deal with issues, year after year. Since he reached out, I might give Camera Land a call and ask for him personally. Here’s a hint: you’re not going to do better on this Kowa purchase.

I switched from Optics Planet to Camera Land and have never looked back.
I never had any problems with Optics Planet except when it comes to getting expert advice and someone you can trust on the phone, Camera Land's service has my business forever.

I've bought a number of optics from Cameraland and have been happy with their service. I think Eurooptic is also good. B&H Photo seems pretty good. I've never had any problems with Optics Planet either, but haven't used them for a while.

Bought my first optic from Camera Land in 2012 and never looked back. I’ve dealt with Neil on a couple of occasions and can’t speak highly enough about him. Even if Camera Land is a little higher than another store I will purchase from them because when you consider their service you’re still getting the best deal.
Purchased once from B&H, good experience.
Once or twice from EuroOptic, all good.
I live within driving distance of SWFA, have been a little underwhelmed by the attitude and service since Skylar left.
Optics Planet-if they are the absolute only option I would use them but grudgingly. My personal experience with them on a couple of occasions left a bad taste in my mouth.
Don't roll those bloodshot eyes at me.
