Elkhunter1 Report post Posted February 11, 2012 Three weeks ago I sent my Alpen 10x42's in to get them repaired. I just got them back today, or so I thought. They sent me a new pair. I was totally surprised by this. There was a convergence problem with them. I had several conversations with their service team in an effort to get them returned, they went beyond what I am used to by service teams. they have a customer for life.

I was looking at some of their rifle scopes today and the salesman was saying that they now have a new warranty policy that they will repair/replace any of their optics with a 'no fault, no questions asked warrany' for free. Do you happen to own a rifle scope? If not, what is your opinion of their glass, clarity, etc. Thanks jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use them for the stalking portion of the hunt. No I don't have a rifle scope, I don't hunt with rifles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AZbowhntr Report post Posted March 21, 2012 I have their 15-45X60 spotting scope that I had for a few years. I was getting ready for an elk hunt and noticed that one of the lens' had come loose. So I called them explaining my situation and sent them in. I had a brand new spotting scope sent back to me with plenty of time left before my hunt. I was very pleased and sent them an email letting them know. About a week later I received a letter from them with a 50% off coupon thanking me for the email. So I bought the 10X42 binoculars. I am very pleased with them for wearing them on my bino buddies and glassing at short distances. If I set up to really glass then I will pull out the 15 power Swaro's.

This type of customer service is very rare, when one finds it one must continue to do business with them. I know I will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
