? for the optic zone
« on: January 12, 2004, 12:08:40 PM »
I called today for a price check on nikon 16x50 action binos. You did not have them in stock but quoted a price of $159.00. Natchez SS has the same binos in their February sale book for $92.96 but were also out of stock. How can they do this?

Bluegrass,

I once encountered a similar problem with Natchez - wrong price.  It has to be.  The optic zone has some of the lowest prices anywhere.  Hard to believe that anyone could sell the same optics for half the price of what Jon sells them.

When I'm out of stock on them my price is $25.  :-D  :-D  :-D  :D

I'll bet Jon's price is the same when they are in stock.  :eek:

I just called Natchez SS to confirm if this price was right. The guy told me that was the correct price and it included the tri pod adapter. All he would say when I ask about the price was it was a factory price reduction.

I got pretty bad "mileage" with Natchez.  Once they told me that the price was correct, then, when I was about to place the order, they told me that they were looking at the wrong item because of a computer problem. :(

I have bought several scopes from Jon at the Optic Zone and all I can say is that everything has been perfect - both the scope, the shipping, the price, and, just as important, the service. :-D
