Hi,I wondered if anyone has had dealings with this company [in thread title]?.I need to buy a pair of bioculars and their prices and range seem very competetive.I have had a couple of bad experiences buying 'on-line'  and hope to avoid another disappointment.
Thanks  ,

Bought my first ever bins from them (5 years ago). They were fine with me. Never heard of any issues with them. |

| | | Buying Binoculars
There are lots of threads on WAB about buying binoculars, how to choose etc. etc..
Do have a good read around first please
You are very likely to learn a whole heap!!!
Actually having them in your hand before buying is a must - even if you then buy off the web.
Where are you? |

John. | I have bought a couple of items from infocus, they have a website and various shops, they were extremely helpful, patient and explained everything, but I too would recommend you actually try the items before you buy, and maybe consider second hand items, welcome to WAB by the way  |

Do others find it irritating when one tries to help a newbie, and they disperse into the cyberspace  |

Perhaps he was a spy for the company mentioned.

I thought he was simply trying to promote the site, which was why I steered the conversation towards some negative comments about them. Usually works

It can be a bit daunting when you are new to a forum. I join different forums quite frequently and I'm always thinking to myself "am I doing this right?", "will someone think this is a question that is too easy/too obscure/has been answered a thousand times before/is in the wrong place?", "what will my reception be like as a newbie?", "will I remember to check the replies and will it be obvious how to do this?" etc. My latest concern was on a forum that had a "thanks" button. I could see that people were saying thanks, but I didn't spot the button. I might have looked like a right self-centered so-and-so. But that wasn't my intention. That was a problem with my eyes and my monitor.
John (fredf),
I just saw you starting to reply to this post and then go again. I just hope that you didn't get a touch of "newbie-itis" ( ). Just in case you did, we are very friendly really, honestly. 
Ash
