Best prices on scopes????

SWFA seems to have the best prices on a consistent basis. I've compared them to just about everybody.

One alternative is ebay. I bought my last scope from there and it was priced quite a bit lower than SWFA. It was a generation two Leupold.

I've currently got a bid on a Zeiss Conquest scope. What I do is take SWFA's price (for the scope) then bid ~60% of that price on the ebay scope. We'll see what happens.

Good luck.
 
You just need to be careful of conterfits on eBay. There are legitimate dealers you can buy from on ebay but there are also scammers selling fakes coming out of China.
 
Rarely- very rarely- do I find a "deal" on a used optic on Ebay.
I managed to get one- with a saved search when I got notified on a "buy it now" auction for a Bushy Tactical 10x...for $125 LNIB. I snatched it up..

Most everything else, sells too close to new prices to interest me. But, sometimes a BIN does come up like it did with me, with a seller that underestimates what the market might bear.

I've been on the lookout for another Vortex Viper, and the always end up like $30-$50 off of new prices. Now, I know their lifetime warranty is transferable, but I'm not a guy that's gonna buy used for $400 when I can buy brand new for $450.

Same thing with SWFA's Samplelist... SWFA has good prices, but I've rarely seen a "deal" on Samplelist.
Again, with the Super Snipers, they might knock $30 off the $300 price for a new scope for a used "B" of the same model. No thanks...
