I've ordered and received from them. Good prices - no problems here.

Some of the dealers who pay for this site to run, are advertisers or even those who contribute would be better to ask about on this site.

Opticsplanet was able to provide a few things for me at the lowest prices I could find. I haven't been quite so lucky on other stuff I've tried to order. It looks like a lot of stuff they advertise is either out of stock, weeks away, or they try and get you into another item that is in stock. Borders on bait and switch, IMHO... I've found another site associated with the same Northbrook, IL address opticsplanet uses, selling the same or nearly the same stuff - tacticalstore.com. I'm thinking they are a churn and turn middleman. Nothing more.

I'm back to more reliable web-based stores with a brick and mortar establishment behind them, even if I have to pay a few points more... Support after the sale to me is more important than the absolute lowest purchase price I can find.

I placed an order with them for a digital camera. Had no issues. Most large distributors do some level of business as a middle man only. I certainly try to do as much business with supporters of the sites I enjoy as I can though.
