Amateur Geologist knows that students are on a tight budget. We're glad to help you in a little way by offering a 5% Educational Discount.
Let's be honest. The Educational discount is our
way of encouraging you to pass on the word about our site. It's
advertising to your benefit and to our benefit
I'll tell you how to use the discount further down but for now I want you to see what's required to qualify.
And I do enforce the requirements.
To qualify for this discount you must meet these requirements:
You must be a student or staff at a college or university and
you use your educational email address which ends in .edu when placing the order or
you send us an email from your educational email address which ends in .edu to confirm your educational status or
you fax us a copy of your of you university or college id card at 760-876-5429
or
You are a teacher at a public (not private) lower educational institution and
you provide us proof of this fact via email of fax at 760-876-5429. (Many schools have a website which lists you as on staff.)
or
You are on staff at a national park, state park, museum staff and the material will be used for educational purposes and
you provide us proof of this fact via email of fax at 760-876-5429.
(Many parks and museums have a website which lists you as on staff.) of
Did I mention that the above requirements are enforced. I just don't think it's fair to everybody if I let a few people sneak through and take the discount when they're not eligible.
When you add an item to your shopping cart just add the coupon code Educational
to the coupon field.
You only need to do this on one product as you
add it to your cart. You'll receive a discount of 5% off of all the
items in the "Gear" and "Education" category. Sorry but our books are
already priced so low that we can't discount them.
We're sorry but the Educational discount is NOT available for home schooling.
On a case by case basis the Educational discount may be allowed for private lower educational schools.
And save more! The discount may also be applied on top of the quantity discount which we offer.
The Belomo 10x handlens is definitely a wonderful tool. A Hastings triplet design that is built like a Swiss bank vault. Optics are superb (razor sharp and bright) with a much wider field of view than my Bausch & Lomb 10x Hastings - which for entomology is a big plus! My collection of hand lenses is fairly large and I also use stereo microscopes for my work, but the Belomo can always be in your pocket ready to use anywhere and enjoy at any time. Its heirloom sturdiness will provide many years of visual pleasure. My first order got lost in the mail and the great folks at Amateur Geologist didn't bat an eye and sent another which was very kind, proving that they're definitely there to help their customers. My sincere thanks and appreciation goes out to them for their fabulous service and wonderful products.
