Think of the good service that you generally get from astro stores. Then replace 'good' with 'condescending/arrogant' and you'll have a fair idea.

I've never had the pleasure, unfortunately, though in a parallel universe I might take up hunting and fishing.
There are some birding people who refuse to go to hunting stores for their sports optics because "they shoot innocent birds", so they feel more comfortable in a store that does more astro gear and have binoculars as a sideline rather than a shop that sells guns and have binoculars as a sideline.
I haven't sent him there yet (no need to) but let's hope he's just happy with just a barlow and his own telescope. Sorry to disappoint.
