Dark Clear Skies Reviews 

I ordered a Player One Ares M Pro and Phoenix filter wheel 9pm Monday night. It was dispatched that very night and I received it today (Wednesday). Well packaged and fast service. Highly recommended service.

FANTASTIC. Great company and a very nice owner paul,who goes the extra mile. Looks like the northwest has a local astro dealer at last. Well done.

This was my first purchase with Dark Clear Skies and it certainly won't be my last! :)

Paul was super quick to answer my questions about his stock availability and I was very much put at ease in dealing with a new UK based retailer, based on our email conversations.

Placed my order late on Saturday and was delivered by Tuesday morning, with excellent packaging.

Thanks again Paul and look forward to burning a bigger hole in my wallet with you going forward! LOL!

PlayerOne Apollo-M.
Order late last year and arrived promptly & well packaged.
Not much chance to use it until the last few weeks and it’s great.
Great service from CDS, would buy from them again.

I have placed order on Sunday afternoon ( Player One Apollo M mini camera ) and received purchased item on Tuesday morning. As described, new, completely sealed and ready to use. Definitely recommending for anyone planning to Purchase Player One cameras from UK! Fast and realiable seller. Thank you!

CAUTION RECOMMENDED. REVIEWS MAY BE FAKE. Enquired regarding collecting Seestar S50 from the warehouse as I literally live up the road from the warehouse. What would be the point in paying postage ? ...after a wait for a reply, I got and email that literally just asked where I lived. To which I replied again that I lived a mile away and wanted to collect in person. I'm still waiting for a reply weeks later! If this is how they treat their customers before they get their money, what on earth would their aftercare be like ??? Gets all the suspicious up about this outfit !!!

I purchased a ZWO SEESTAR S50 free delivery.
Good price and arrived in a couple of days. I was kept up to date every step. Fantastic thanks.

Recently purchased the Player one, Poseidon-C Pro from Dark clear skies. Outstanding service all round. Definitely recommended
Many thanks

Recently bought a camera from dark skies,and i must say what a pleasent experience it was.They respond very quickly to emails,and even provide a contact number you can use.
For my package they used Royal Mail 24hr tracked,and although not the quickest delivery they kept me informed all the way through,so you were never second guessing.
Exerllent company,and can whole heartedly recommend.

Purchased a PLAYER ONE URANUS-C PRO from Dark Clear Skies, directed to them by Player One Astronomy. Within an hour of my purchase I received an email from DCS informing me that my product was on back order and would be shipped the following weekend. I then received an email the following weekend advising me it had shipped, and an email a few days later with the tracking number. Great communication from DCS and very helpful. Camera arrived on time and in good order. Would Recommend.

Competitive pricing. Wide variety of stock. Fast shipment.

Good prices, quality products and quick dispatch. The SV503 80 ED is my perfect scope. Thanks!

Purchased svbony sv503 102 ed refractor telescope. Perfect transaction Paul ordered me it via svbony China, I got it delivered within a week excellent service and his price nobody can match anywhere in the UK.
Thank you buddy.

Very happy with product, (svbony sv188p) star diagonal.
Shipped very fast.
Best price I could find.
Top marks AAA*

Fast dispatch and excellent packing. I found their website easy to use and overall very satisfied with their service.
Paul should be the standard all other traders follow.

I agree with the other reviewers. With good advice from Paul, ordering was made really easy to buy a special present for my husband. Dark Clear Skies will always be the first place I will look for future purchases.

Service above and beyond - as always

Paul is a pleasure to deal with. Good line of products and pricing and service is always great. Most recent order I needed shipped quickly and it arrived earlier than needed. Definitely recommended.

D.C.S is a recent addition to Player Ones official UK distributors.

I ordered the P1 Saturn-M Mono and it arrived promptly. Frequent email status updates after ordering which is good when dealing with a new seller. 5*.

In the UK astro shops are full to the brim with ZWO cams but P1 are better designed. They have screws for tilt (for removing Newton Rings when imaging extreme narrow band like Ha at 0.7 angstroms). That's light physics discovered by Newton and true of all cameras. P1 cams have better heat transfer to the shell, keeping the sensor cooler. P1 have a fan cooler to make the heat transfer even more efficient. Or make your own. I made my own but I only saved £10 doing it the hard way.

Back to the point. D.C.S delivered.
Would definitely use again.

I purchased a Player One camera.
The communication has been excellent and the delivery was super fast.
