HI BEING NEW TO THIS SITE I JUST THOUGHT I WOULD LET YOU KNOW ABOUT MY LEUPOLD RX-600 BOUGHT FROM STATES 3 YEARS AGO( WHEN PRICES WERE GOOD)FOR £1OO THEN 2 WEEKS AGO IT JUST PACKED IN WORKING SO SENT IT BACK TO LEUPOLD IN THE STATES (IT HAD A 2 YR WARRANTY) GOT RIPPED OFF BY "UPS" TO THE TUNE OFF £65 TO SEND IT, LEUPOLD ARE EXCHANGING IT FOR A RX-1000 F.O.C. JUST $25 TO PAY FOR P+P YET AGAIN LEUPOLD OFFER A FANTASTIC CUSTOMER SERVICE.

That sounds a great service from leupold, it's nice to get customer satisfaction.

I ordered a bino pack from the USA the chap that designed it said "I'll send one out to you, once you've tried it and if you like it just send me the money " I was astounded. I recieved the pack for my range finder binos checked they fitted and sent payment right away. It's a pity more in the UK wouldn't send out items to try before you buy but I suppose they'ed never get payed.I've always been dubious about ordering from abroad but I wouldn't hesitate now. What a rip off by UPS by the way!

i lost a target turret cap years ago and asked leupold if they could sort one for me and how much, they just posted a new one and did not even charge me for postage.Best customer service i have ever had. thats why i now own three leupolds,i do not mind paying for top quality and great service as in the long run it works out cheaper.

Thought about buying from the states but I've been put off by potential UK import taxes? Anyone got some info or advice on this ?

HI FURTHER TO ABOVE I GOT A CALL FROM LEUPOLD TO SAY THEY WOULD EXCHANGE MY RX600 FOR A RX1000 FOR $25 (ABOUT £18) INC POSTAGE AND IT HAS ARRIVED THIS WEEK AFTER A PLAY WITH IT IS A LOT BETTER . OLD ONE HAD BLACK CROSS HAIRS THIS HAS VERY BRIGHT ORANGY/RED MILLDOT CROSS HAIRS WHICH IS SO MUCH BRIGHTER AND CLEARER IT IS ALSO MORE COMPACT THAN THE 600 OTHER THING IS IT IS HELD VERTICLE RATHER THAN HORIZONTAL WHICH MAY TAKE A BIT OF GETTING USED TO ALL IN ALL WELL IMPRESSED YET AGAIN WITH LEUPOLDS CUSTOMER SERVICE SO IF YOU CAN AFFORD THERE GEAR THEN I CERTAINLY RECOMEND THAT YOU BUY IT AS THE EXCHANGE RATE IS STILL NOT BAD $1.5 TO £1.00.
