Lidl are doing their normal Christmas scope offer

LIDL

Not absolutely ideal as there is no mechanical stage (so you have to move the slide around by hand), but will do a reasonable job at a very decent price.

Hi Dave,if that is the offer that starts on the 15-december it is the good microscope and i think you will find it does have a mechanical stage.

Thanks Steve,

Yes on offer from Today.

Just checked the Video and YES IT DOES HAVE A MECHANICAL STAGE.

So absolutely no excuses for not having a scope

If you are thinking of buying one best do so quickly. First store sold out, but thankfully the next one had two left in stock.

Looks really good, though sadly its been whisked away until the 25th December. Damm this Christmas lark.

Glad you got one Mark, thats your Christmas prezzie sorted.

Guess there will be a few popping up on Ebay in the coming months at £80+ - Not quite the "I need it now" premium thats on Heston Blumenthal's Christmas Pudding.

Good man Gaz

You can call yourself a proper Koi keeper now, getting comfortable with a scope simply involves a bit of practice.

Mark - Pudding sorted !
