Off topic, but since we are talking about customs: Has anyone had anything returned in a condition other than it was sent in?
Both a Minox and a Schmidt & Bender that required trips to Germany came back with scuffs on the turret covers. I'd almost want to say someone opened the covers with pliers or some sort of tool. They certainly didn't have those markings when sent in.
I mentioned it to Minox, and they quickly sent out a new set of covers for me. The battery compartment cover on the SB had the majority of markings and what bugs me the most. I e-mailed SB-USA when it happened but never got a reply from them. I may give them a follow-up again, but I won't hold my breath.

Thanks, Doug! Lisa is taking care of it for me. I really appreciate it. You guys know how picky I am with optics, and having distinct tool marks on the battery compartment cover just really bothered me.

Got word this morning that they are shipping from Germany on Sept 7th. Normally orders that ship on aFriday from Germany clear customs the following Wednesday and then S&B will receive, QC the scopes and send them on to us so it looks like they will be here and shipping out to all those who pre-ordered the week of the 17th.
I apologize for the delay, however, I am sure you'll be thrilled with the scope. Status?

They work well for a POS 34mm scope that’s not meant for hunting (according to the optics expert here).... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.postimg.cc/nVNX806F/FE7_FF83_E-_B60_A-4_C07-_A02_B-11_AF9_EADD597.jpg)

Was here when I got in this evening. Mounted it but it will be Saturday before I put any rounds through the rifle. I'll get details posted as I get to work with it.
