How's this for fast shipping?

On Thursday (28th May) I ordered an Innomount QD 34mm unimount from Optics-trade.eu. This was shipped on Friday (29th May) from Laporje, Slovenia. Imagine my surprise when the package arrived here today, that's amazingly quick shipping.

I'm very impressed with the service from Optics-trade.eu, I've heard from others of similar good service. If you're after a high end scope, binos or other optic, I'd give this company a look.

Outstanding, how much was shipping from Slovenia?

Very good service and cheaper than most.

Shipping was €25 - I'm not sure if that was a flat rate, but I thought it very reasonable compared to most shipping from the US or elsewhere.

I know several people who have bought scopes etc. from this outfit and I've heard good reports from all satisfied customers. The owner (Teodor Štimec) is extremely helpful.

I'll certainly buy from them again.

I have ordered my scope from them and it is in transit as we speak. Will be with me on Thursday so a 4 day turnaround!

+1. New Zeiss variable,saved a ton and and a half at least.
Two hiccups though,sorry-three= (1) Barclays held up the authorisation untill I explained I made the online purchase.
(2) Optics trade asked for £715.00 instead of equivelent in Euros,then asked for more money which I felt obliged to paypal them rather than risk Barclays interfering a second time.

(3) Zeiss sent them the wrong version with different turrets.

The whole deal took less than two weeks though even with the foul ups.

I purchased from them recently and had a problem with Nationwide credit card authorization, so Teodor sent me a PayPal invoice, which I paid with the same c/c and also saved £££s by declining Paypal's euro-to-stirling conversion rate and using Nationwide's rate instead, which is always better as they don't charge commission on foreign currency transactions.

I too used the PayPal invoice route as their new website was (and still is) spitting out screws and cogs. I've spoken to Teodor by phone a couple of times, really can't fault his service.

I'll have no hesitation in buying from optics-trade.eu again.
