ED 50 Disaster (1 Viewer)

I think optically Nikon products are excellent, but it annoys me to hell to think we as UK customers are taken so lightly and treated differently to others.

On another thread I was asking about a good travel scope & Nikon ED50 was highlighted to me. I shall steer clear thank you if this is how they treat UK customers.

Not really, when you consider the varied responses on this thread.

With all respect, just because your experience was good, does not vindicate the overall service they provide.
 
I am just starting out with scopes.....still looking but will steer clear of Nikon now, (does anyone know conclusively why we in the UK are treated deferently, regarding guarantees?) especially when you have Opticron who by the sound of it has brilliant customer services!!

'Cos the Brits like to winge about all and sundry from the weather to petrol prices, and everything in between, happily exisiting under the illusion that they, the unfortunate residents of the Isle, are the most disadvantaged folk on the globe. Thus, dear optic companies like to oblige, adding a little extra plank for the Brits to batter themselves with.
