so I was watching this video and decided to price check a swaro spotter and my Amazon has them all at $500. What gives? I’m about to buy 1 even if it’s a scam I’ll get my money back from amazon yeah? Haha
-
April 1st is tomorrow!
-
I've bought like this before very cheap and ended up exactly what they said.Buy it since you put it up i'm gonna. :tup:
has to be done now.
-
I said to heck with it and bought one. If it’s fake I’ll report back but that’s been full price in my cart since last year and my cart said item price changed. The bino’s are $500 too
-
That got my attention. I've been looking at spotting scopes......so I ordered one.
Thanks for the heads-up !!
-
I bought one also, I too will report back when/if it arrives.
-
bought should be 5 left now.
it only came down 1
-
If it seems too good to be true, it aint
-
If you look, every items that company is selling is 500$. Even items that should be a fraction of that or way, way more. Seems like most likely there is a problem with their account, software issue. If it actually goes through and is real good on ya.
-
I ordered one too... fingers crossed!

+1, they haven’t had a comment left in over a year either. Hope it works out guys! :tup:
-
Dang it. If I just caused a mass of huntwa members to get scammed I’ll feel real bad.
-
I already have a swaro spotter but I grabbed one just in case it’s the deal of the century lol
-
When it pops up on mine is says without eye piece
-
EL 10x42’s are the same great deal.
-
Canceled mine.after fully reviewing i think there is something up with the body itself,I don't think it is all Swarovski.look at the tripod mount.look at the incomplete grooved end.The description says that this spotting scope comes with the Swarovski 20x60 eyepiece,that eyepiece alone is $579.That tells me the body is crap and reduced price on eyepiece. :twocents:
-
And its from costsl wood factory. Look at reviews. They make bowls and rubber band guns and crap like that. Even get bad reviews for that. Buyer beware.
-
Well, if it’s fraud, I hope I get my money back!!!
-
One option is a 20-50x eye piece. Hmmmmm didn't realize swaro made a 20-50 :chuckle:
-
:yeah:
-
Next time guys, slow down a minute. I coulda saved you all some money. Anybody who wants, instead of jumping on this "deal", can just give me $250 and ill kick ya square in the nuts
-
I canceled my order within 5 min. canceled easy...........I hope it did anyway. :chuckle:
-
Theyll be closing business and heading to the bahamas shortly :yike:
-
Damn!!! Listened to you guys and cancelled, but I wonder if the damage is done and my Visa card is f’d

:chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle:
-
Haha it’s gone now. Back to nearly 3,000
-
The bino’s are still up for grabs!
-
Well crap, I hope it works out and you get your scope. If it was real, I’ll punch myself in the jimmy for canceling.
-
Lol I cancelled to :chuckle: probably was the deal of the century :chuckle:
-
It will be interesting to see how this ends up. My son and I both jumped on the deal....he got the last one. I have returned many items to Amazon over the last 3-4 years, so I'm not too worried if I feel the need to return it. They always take items back, with no questions asked.
-

could you imagine! I felt so good ordering it!
-
I have the worst luck so I’ll report if in the next couple days my bank account drains or if I get a Swarovski spotter in a couple weeks.

This thread is a pretty good indicator for why fishing/trails/hunting is closed statewide...
-
The seller sells wood trinkets :chuckle:
http://coastalwoodfactory.com/shop/
-
Only 9 left!
-
Definitely a software glitch. Go to their Amazon storefront and every item is $500 and only 9 left. Less than 9 if someone has jumped on it. Think Amazon will honor the deal on Coastal Wood Factory's behalf?
-
Made in China
Gawd dont break any seals

China makes some pretty incredible fakes, if they sell 1000 they might have 800 returns and still make a pile of cash. I was at a fairly remote market a year ago and came across a guy selling Leupold scopes that looked really good. He was also selling blue and black Chicago Bulls hats.
The funny thing is that some of the fakes aren't so fake. I visited a factory once where they made name brand stuff during normal hours and then at midnight some guys would show back up and crank out some more for the secondary market. Fake, but real at the same time.
-
6 10x42’s left, which one of you just bought one?

I got a ton of “fake” real north face stuff that way overseas
-
Things just get weirder and weirder........a friend just bought two of the spotting scopes at the $500 price.
-

Someone needs to throwdown for all 6!
-
look at the differences between this pair vs the one on Swarovski site.
-
label on front instead of on the side.strap mounting is cheap on the amazon one and that is the main EL part of this pair of bino's,
-
So I’m looking at a different one from the same company, 500$ for the ats hd body. Assuming it’s a scam
-
I'm thinking this one goes along the lines of the old saying. If it is too good to be true? It is a scam!
-
Scam or not I ordered a ATS 80 hd with a 20x-60x eyepiece. If it is not legit I will send it back.
-
All gone!
-
I ordered one. I'm not worried if it's a fake. Amazon is like costco. They both take everything back

This is more exciting than that tiger show!

Except TP & rice :chuckle:

This thread is blowing up more then the when are the draws coming out threads!
-
Bino's, spotters, and scopes all for $500 each and only 9 left. Buy all 9!
-

Lmao :chuckle:
You want to see blow up, wait until their tinker toy optics show up. :chuckle:
-
This same exact thing went down about a year ago on Amazon with Nightforce glass, little oddball seller who had nothing to do with the product they were selling, everything was $500, they sold out real fast.... don't remember anyone showing of their new scopes afterwards..... I know mine never came.. :rolleyes:

No need to "blow up".......just send it back. We bought a 6'x10' area run on Amazon a while back. When we got it the colors were way different than the picture. Just rolled it up and sent it back. Amazingly, the credit was on my credit card the next day. Amazon never asks why you are returning something......they just take it back.
-
Not long ago my buddy ordered a bait tank off amazon for a screaming deal for our tuna fishing trips. When he got it, it was a table leg! :chuckle:
-
Tagging to see if any of you actually get one :yike:
-
I just had a 5 minute emotional roller coaster.
I’m done now.
Thanks for that folks.
-
Amazon cancelled the order. Imagine that. Lol.
-
Don’t worry if you missed it - there’s a few left here: Http://Im-a-sucker/Fleece-me/.com. :chuckle:
-

No it’s not.
-
Just got the email from amazon that my order has been cancelled.
-
Darn. Order cancelled.
-
Amazon cancelled the orders, bought all the units themselves and are selling them for $1500/ea. :chuckle:
-
That’d be the only sensible thing to do.
-
Price gouging! Report them!
-
Was hoping to spend my stimulus on one or three :chuckle:
-
So, how are all you bargain hunters enjoying your 500 dollar swarovski optics? :chuckle:
-
:rolleyes:
-
Didn’t all those orders get cancelled?
-
I’ll let everyone know when the nightforce scopes are 50 bucks!

Thanks for rubbing salt in the wound.
