I just had a quick look at them and can't see much camera gear on their website, looks to be more astro scopes and cheap birding optics. Looking at the prices for these things they seem to be about what you'd expect them to be. Perhaps you could put up a link to the gear you're looking at incase I've looked at the wrong site!

I've seen them before, but typing scopes n skies in google comes up with a warning in a thread on an astro forum.

Sorry I got the wrong site, should have said "Bitesize deals".I must have still been asleep when I typed the thread.Would still appreciate any info.

Just had a quick look and there prices do look a little cheaper than most in the UK (though not by much) - try googling the company and you'll find a lot of negative feedback - try here for starters - http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1346747

Thanks to postcardcv for your reply I dont think ,after reading the forum on your link,that I will be using them.Will have to pay a little more to a reputable company in this country
