Shame they can't ship to Canada.

I know

That's strange. They go from $249 to $99 and PSA and bushnell are still making money. So why are they priced so high?? This seems oddly familiar..

Wow. It iant the illuminated reticle model, but I'd grab a couple of those at that price.

You could always use Seawings or a similar company to ship it here for you. Ships to Blain Washington c/o Seawings, then they bring it up. Worth it for the savings.

 

[tpirovol]

Really how does that work?? Anyone in Toronto want to split the shipping??

 

[koesdibyo]

Would require an Export permit, dont think Seawings has that, or would be willing to get one.

Highly doubtful. You should read up on loss leader marketing strategies and penetration pricing.

I'm aware. You should read up on cheap Chinese labour and materials..Or Phillipino.

Their regular price is way out of line. That model goes for $125 with free shipping on Amazon. The illuminated model with the PCL can be had for $199 as well. A good deal for sure but not as mind blowing as it appears.

Lol, do you seriously think I don't know about that? The market in the U.S. is highly competitive, so if $99 was a profitable selling price, we would see it more places. They're either clearing out an old model that bushnell will be improving on in 2015, or selling these scopes at or around cost to attract new customers that will buy other, more profitable products.

Why sell at $99 for a decent profit when people are willing to pay two or three times that??

Those cheap optics look like they will break if you try to look through them. They aren't even worth 99$.

 

[mebiuspower]

It's made in South Korea, hence the low price.

Canadian always pay more for EVERYTHING compare to Americans. Do we have to start this again?

Happy with my AR series scope, and I've looked thru it many times without issue

I handled one at Sail... nice clear glass, solid feel. Doesn't scream cheap to me. Will probably snag one myself.

I went for the 18x one, when the rebate was on. What it showed me was that I had better start hand loading .223 if I expected to be happy with it

So now I have a potential MOA load for my other piece of oriental hardware - DA556, using cheap plated bullets and range brass.
