[brian nordstrom (As avatar)]

Thanks Peter , I have a job to do near them on Monday and will pop in for a gander at lunch time , my report forth coming .

All I hope is that they play this well and become a force in our hobby here in Perth , but I wont hold my breath until I talk to them and see their set up . . ( eg. skills and knowledge ) and they are ready to learn .

ps. I hope they are reading this , I will direct them here if not , even show them on my smart phone this site and what an opportunity they have here if played right ...

Brian.

Did these come from BOTW's stock ? or have the always had them ?
Its just I heard a $ value on the stock BOTW were holding and if so its already topped this .
Following with interest here .

I don't know if their stock came from B.T.O.W. From memory, the scopes and EPs I saw in the shop totalled around 11 or 12,000 at the ticketed prices.

Yes a percentage divvied among the Perth camera houses , thanks mate I will let you know as I said about the Cannington shop next week ( if Peter does not beat me to it .. ) .

This smells of theft a little , don't it ? ( like some one had a scope stolen ) and we are all looking out for it .

No, the Midland store has always stocked them, but their knowledge on such is limited. They were not part of the CH franchise that owned BTOW, as that is CH Cannington.
