  Not a great place for optics. I went in there asking for a prism mirror for my telescope and they had to get keys out and try and find one. They had 4 people looking around for it and when hey finally found it they asked for £46 for it. I declined and they then whispered to themselves about mentioning discount but a discount of 10% is still too high. I felt they were desperate for a sale and I didn't feel in a confortable environment to buy. I also went into the shop a few weeks before asking for a telescope eyepiece and they just tried to sell me a new telescope. Bare in mind most of their prices are 20% on top of RRP, I don't know how they've kept open all these years. Shame it's the only local place to do astronomy setups. Maybe they should display their merchandise out then people can browse and decide instead of making decisions on the spot.
