Default Best Place To Buy Spotting Scopes In Canada.

Hey. I'm looking at buying a new spotting scope this year. Ive narrowed it down to either the Vortex Razor 15-48X65 or the Zeiss Duralyt 18-45X65.
I'm just wondering where would be the best place ( Cheapest Price ) in Canada.

Thanks.

Pee lee wings nature store in Ontario, was looking for a deal and some guys on CGN had a conversation about this place and they had the best prices in Canada on every piece of high end Optics. Just a heads up its a bird watching store so no rifle scopes but there service and knowledge were great. Had a kowa spotter shipped out to me and saved a pile of cash.

Head over to your closest UFA and open up an account. Then ask for a Wild card for Wholesale sports. The Wild card will give you a discount and it is 10% on optics. I have been pricing Swarovski's for awhile and can not get a better price anywhere.

How did you like the Kowa. I've also been thinking about the 664 model.

Omer at Precision Optics was the cheapest I could find for my swaro ATS 65 and my swaro rifle scope. I believe he has his prices listed on CGN (has no website) under the vendors section. Definitely worth comparing his and calling him. If you want his contact info send me a PM.

They have to call head office. Then head office will send it out to you. It is only usable by the card holder and they check your ID when going through the check out. Any UFA can start the process. Ask for the manager and you will be on your way.

I bought my razor 65 off amazon.ca for $140 less than I could find it any where else. That was a little before the dollar fell. Down side....it was left on my front door in the original box all day LOL! (vortex spotter plastered all over it). Not impressed.

That wholesale deal mentioned sounds pretty good!
