i had a brand new rimfire prostaff that sit in the box for 10 years. yes! installed it, and it wouldn't track for nothing. the adjustments meant nothing to that scope. after filling out a lot of computer generated paperwork, etc. they examined it and sent me a brand new replacement. it's as bright as the original, and both boxes said "Phillippines."
i'm satisfied with that service. but that said, warranties are an expense that somebody pays.
