This was a gift for my husband
December 29, 2016

This was a gift for my husband. He had some problems connecting with our wifi and finally resolved the problem after spending close to an hour on line with customer service. Seems there is a glitch in the software... He is happy with the system at this time.

Great price, fast e-mail response with the lowest available price. Even with shipping charge, much better price than anywhere else. The item arrived quickly and there were no surprises when the package was opened. Overall, a great experience and will definitely shop this site again in the future.

The Davis Vantage Pro2 was received in excellent condition, however, when setup the wind direction indication is non-functional. I spoke with Davis Instruments technical support and they are sending me a test cable to determine what the issue is. Will contact your support department as well.

Thanks,
John

Service with Scientificsales.com has been great
February 18, 2015

Service with Scientificsales.com has been great. I do most of my shopping on line and found the lowest prices here. We live in BC Canada, visiting Arizona for a while then travelling back to Canada in a few weeks. I will be installing the software purchased for our Vantage Vue when we get back home.

Thanks again...tgf...

Glad I found this site!
December 16, 2017

Glad I found this site! My husband will be totally excited to receive this Weather Station. Our old one ( Weather Wizard----have had for a long, long time!) quit working. Also appreciated the person ( Tom) that I spoke to on the phone to ask some questions about this item.
12/15/2017. Just a follow up comment. We received our order on December 11th and my husband was so excited. He got the weather station installed the next day I think and totally loves it! Thank you for great service, timely shipping (free!)--yay, and a excellent product. My husband loves his early Christmas present!

Easy shopping experience
June 28, 2014

Easy shopping experience. We have the same device from you - ordering our second unit.
The p5 Lightning Detector arrived fine. However, I failed to get a power adaptor with the order.
I would like to order one plug-in adaptor at this time. When I tried on-line, it kept adding more dectectors and too many adapters. I only need one adaptor.
Thanks.

I have been a repeat customer with Tom for years
February 18, 2015

I have been a repeat customer with Tom for years. He runs a "tight ship" in the weather monitoring arena. By far, Scientific Sales has the lowest prices and superior customer support.

I received the order in a timely fashion
July 24, 2014

I received the order in a timely fashion. It was well packaged and the
Contents appear to be all there. I was also pleased with the pricing.

I haven't set up the Davis unit yet, so I can't comment on its operation.
My MK III is registering 117 degrees, so I'll be waiting until morning to
Install the Davis.

I can't say anymore than what has already been covered in the above questions. Ordering was easy and convenient. The order came in a very timely manner. I admit I have not installed the unit yet, but it appears to be complete and very easy to put into operation.

Pre-Purchase...
February 7, 2017

Pre-Purchase...This is my first experience, but what I have read and seen on the scientificsales.com website has engendered a confidence. I hope you don't disappoint me.

Post-Purchase... Now that I have received my equipment I can happily say I am NOT disappointed and can confidently recommend Scientific Sales to anyone. Good job! Thanks!

The only fly in the ointment was the customs/import fee that I had mistakenly assumed that international shipping would handle. Other than the website "looking dated" it is functional and navigating the site is relatively straightforward. I like the "lowest price" option which often provides competitive pricing. I'd definitely shop at scientifisales.com again.

Best price I could find and friendly, helpful assistance on the phone.
So far, so good!
This is a Christmas gift so I can't comment on the performance or quality of the unit until I can actually get to play with it!
Thanks!

The instructions for my rain gauge are incredibly difficult to understand. They do not follow a logical sequence, so the user has to figure out what to do first. I think I have it working, but won't know for sure until I complete my mounting outdoors.

The Scientificsales.com web site had the best price any where I looked for a Davis Weather Station. Filling order and shipping was fast despite the 1 day delay of UPS because of the large snowstorm that hit the northeast. I would recommend them as a good place to buy.

Check out process seemed overly complicated
November 30, 2016

Check out process seemed overly complicated. Site rejected my credit card payment and finally took PayPal which bills to same account. Later found out bank had locked up my credit card and I had to call them to unlock the account. I was told it was because your website had an unusual amount of fraudulent transactions.

I am completely thrilled with my new Vantage Vue
December 28, 2013

I am completely thrilled with my new Vantage Vue. If I had shopped elsewhere, budgetary constraints would have forced me to settle for a lesser-quality station. Shipping was fast and immaculately packaged.

I highly recommend scientificsales.com (and the Davis Vantage Vue!).

Very fair price!
October 21, 2013

Very fair price! I ALWAYS shop around and you got the sale. You were the best price out of a dozen I looked at. A company like your will continue to strive into the future with fair and honest prices like this. I might be interested in the weather station software at a future date. Convince me to come back and make that purchase.

Easy ordering, and so far so good. We have yet to launch the balloon but will take the time to support Scientific Sales with a short video testimonial when we do! Great company, great price, and fast shipping! A+
