Bought new in December 2023. Dandy little scope with incredible glass for the price but alas other projects are calling for $. Wouldn’t be able to tell it’s not new, includes original box, manual, bikini cover, and even Swaro decal. $700 TYD via Venmo/Zelle/PayPal F&F or add 3%. Ships USPS insured with tracking.

Will take a personal check, just not USPS MO. Don’t have a bank local and the last MO I took was printed incorrectly which somehow led to me having to pay the PO $25 and wait 3-4 weeks for the money.

Great scope and reticle combo.

USPS Money order is terrible, just like their service.
Had buddy receive one for scope he sold on another site. Went to local PO cashed it and sent item at same time (the convenience of such payment) . However, couple weeks later got a letter from PO the money order was fraudulent and he owed USPS $500. As most of us would he ignored it and in turn they held his mail hostage (everything) until he paid.
I had a PO money order lost (in their care), filed to cancel it. After having to show receipt, picture, and sorts proof; they said -if- no one has cashed it (didn't matter if it was stolen or non intended cashed it), I would get money back in 90 days. About 6 months later I did get a check for it.
They are nothing but a pain and a liability. With USPS MO, you might as well be sending the item first and hope payment comes. Any form of payment is better...
And not to derail post- nice scope.

But yet, you're shipping via usps. Lol! Now, don't get mad at me, just poking a little fun... Think about the shear volume of mail, every day, the usps handles. There's bound to be a SNAFU! I've actually had great reliability with them. There were a couple bumps, no doubt, but overall, I'm not complaining.
Now, having said all that, I'd like to purchase your scope, PM to follow.
I keep playing scope roulette with my Gentry Custom Mountain Rifle in 7×57. Hopefully, it ends with this scope! Lol!

I'm with Dean on the USPS. I've had no issues over the years and they move a lot of letters and parcels daily. Good scope bought by a good guy. I bet you'll like it on your 7x57.

SOLD!
And my issue with a USPS wasn't shipping related. The last MO I took the buyer's PO printed a date so sloppily it could not be read. My bank then declined it due to the error, and the PO wouldn't cash it without doing a "Money order search" which cost me $25. I then I got a check in the mail a few weeks later. Was just a PITA!

Speaking of USPS money orders. I sent in a trigger and a MO for $85. The post office lost it, then charged me $7.00 to look for a MO they lost. Six months later I got my money back but never saw the trigger again.
