Great deal on eBay if you hurry. It's $142.69 with free shipping, then eBay has a 20% off code you can use to bring it down to $114.15.

I wonder if those are real Leupold scopes or fake.
-
Not fake. Look at the seller's feedback and location. I've purchased at least one Leupold scope from the same seller a year or two ago.
The price isn't even that unbelievably low. It's the 20% discount that really makes it a good deal. You can buy the same scope from Optics Planet right now for $170.

:tup:
Thanks

I'm guessing there could be more low prices like this until they run out of the VX-1 and VX-2 scopes, now that Leupold isn't making them anymore. But I doubt you'd ever get one for less than $114.
-
Thanks. Picked up 2. Bought 1 and the went back and bought another. coupon worked twice for me. Don't know what I need them for but I guess something will come along.

Did the same thing. Got one for me and one for Kenny. He KO'd his vortex on our cougar hunt.
-
I hate the they quit making them
-
Well now they apparently have the "Freedom" to replace the VX-1 and VX-2.
-
How do you apply the code?

Leupold's a great glass, just be super careful on EBay.
Chinese counterfeits are flooding EBay for great prices, but they are scrap junk with no lifetime warranty like a real Leupold does. EBay encourages this crap by not shutting the sellers down regardless of complaints.
See link below for an example.

What brought this to my attention was a coworker who's wife thought she got him a great deal on a VX-III Leupold only to find it was little better than a kids toy.
