Wasn't directing my comments at anyone in particular, quick reply can be a PITA. Talked to Nikon way back when about a guy selling some beat scopes on Ebay and claiming they'd fix 'em for free. Called Nikon to verify and they were very interested and asked for a bunch of details so they could follow up. The ads had been running for a while on Ebay and they dried up in a hurry. I think it was some dealer with a bunch of damaged goods that had already been reimbursed and was trying to get a double dip. Anyway, I was real impressed with the way Nikon handled it. The guy I talked to even wanted to know if I'd been stung by the guy and if so was willing to see what he could do to make it right. Nikon might not be my first choice, but they're damned good about standing behind their product and customers from what I've seen. My bet is they'll get to the bottom of the story with SWFA post haste.
