I have sent an email to Bushnell customer service on 12/17 and requested their email so that I could send them the photos to illustrate the problem. I mentioned I was considering a refund in the email. I got their reply on 12/18 and I immediately sent them the photos on the same day. However, up to now, I still have not received any reply yet.
At the same time, I have sent also sent B&H which I ordered the binoculars with the photos on 12/17. They considered it was defective and sent me a new one. You know, I have received a new one on 12/27. The dipoter ring is perfect this time. However, there is an obvious fault as you will see on the attached photo. As it is only a cosmetic fault and B&H already did a very good job, I accepted this new one.
B&H said they would report the problem to the manufacturer so they could improve their quality control. I do hope so and I believe they should also improve their quality of the customer service as well.
