Before your post I was just going to mail the Vixen Forestas right back to Amazon without even touching them, but I still really really want to like this particular pair of binoculars. Going on Vixen Optics main website in Japan they state "If there is a Vixen distributor in your country, they will be able to help you with purchasing Vixen products. Warranty outside Japan is valid only to the customers who purchased from a Vixen distributor in any of the countries specified below. Please contact a distributor in your country for warranty services." Looking at Vixen Optics Japan website, I still am not seeing any facts stating any type of specific warranty to the products that they are selling, they list MrStarGuy as there only North American distributor. Maybe it is just a call or email to the Vixen Optics in Japan regarding how they cover their binoculars sold internationally. I can not buy from a company that does not support their product, so hopefully a call or email can clear this up, because I really do want to like this binocular. Any other views would be greatly appreciated.</p></blockquote><p></p>
