site and this how it compares for the 10x50x60 SIII Sightron, URL below

 

http://www.optics-tr...oa.html according to the latest currency conversion rates that equals £1061 (http://www.xe.com/uc...From=EUR&To=GBP) without P+P

 

Johnny Sals sells the same scope for $1250 again without P+P but that equals £769 (http://www.xe.com/uc...From=USD&To=GBP) £1061 - £769 = £292 cheaper.

 

De_Tomaso are you sure about there being ZERO duty because I am sure that once you cross a certain amount of £££££'s duty applies and at £292 cheaper I still think I will take my chances buying from the states.

Theres dozens of these kind of posts on here.

No one WANTS to spend a fortune on optics, but i'm afraid if you want quality & reliability theres no option but to spend some decent cash.

 

Most posts on optics are looking for utopia: Quality optics & cheap.

 

Have a look through other posts and usually after pages of posts, the OP usually opts for the cheaper option.

 

It isnt 'snobbery', it isnt one upmanship, its paying whats required to get quality.

 

Ive used most cheap and mid-range scopes, and trust me, its false economy. No way could I go back to a compromise.

 

At the end of the day, if your happy, tgen thats all that matters.
