Default Buying A Microscope in London?

I want to buy a microscope as a gift. I don't have time to wait for it to be delivered so I need to be able to go into a shop in the real world and buy one. Not a toy (which I could get from Hamleys).

Anyone know who sells them?

Cheers,

Father Jack

Maplins do one, they've got plenty of stores in London

Maplin stuff is usually crap though.

You could also try the Widescreen Centre on Dorset St... they sell all sorts of optical stuff including microscopes.

Cheers, TopBanana! Nice shop. They have a good selection, though not all of it in stock in London.
