Hi Kingkong (?),kingkong wrote:hi Daniel, a big welcome to williamoptics. please send my highest regards to William and David Yang.
i saw on a cloudynight report that WO is coming up with a binoview-refractor. any early news on the binoviewer or the bino-refractor package for us?
i just asked opt.com to quote me a z66 semi-apo. personally, it's a pity that i have to buy WO products from overseas (mostly opt or hk) instead of your local malaysian dealer whose prices are often significantly higher.
thank you for your welcome.
Yes, ZS80S, the limited short version optimized for binoviewing and sold also in pacakge with binoviewers, is in the pipeline! In fact, it will be released shortly. Hang on in there! Hang on in there, if that's what you want! Cannot comment yet on pricing.
We do not authorize any USA dealers to sell overseas. I think it's worth paying a little bit more for a local service. Consider that when buying overseas you'd also have to pay freight, you have to pay duties, you make your scope travel a long way with higher risks, and if something goes wrong, you have to revet to the foreign vendor with additional costs for you!
I promise I will look into the pricing issue, but understand that there's a big difference between the huge USA market and other markets. One is freight costs, the other is VAT, and margins... Difficult issues.
ZS66 Petzval ED is a great scope anyway! You cannot go wrong with it.
More news later!
Daniel
