Hi all,
I've just had an unexpected experience with a UK optics retailer.
I purchased a conquest 10x32, new, (edit: online, delivered to me) which had a focus wheel that was fine in one direction, but when changing to the opposite direction would go loose for a short spell then click, then be fine.
Returning in the opposite direction had no such play, or click.
The click was audible across my living room.
The retailer is saying that they have checked the binoculars and this is as they would expect for conquests.
Is that true? Is it acceptable for a loose play and click in the focus in one direction? Should I have been less critical in writing them off as faulty?
