    Euro Optics Scope Importing

    Hi All, Has anyone used Euro Optics before to import a scope?
    Looking at bringing in a Zeiss and was just wondering whether they restricted what they are willng to ship to NZ?

    Cheers

    Recently landed a scope via EuroOptics. Zeiss too. No worries at all. Easier than Trademe. The exchange rate with shipping and customs added made it nearly not worth it though. Have you checked locally?

    Yea I've had a look but still going to be a price difference for about $400ish if I can bring one in.

    2 x Nightforce and an ELCAN from Alex Roy at Euro in three years, never a problem. Great to deal with.��

    10MRT shooters do it 60 times, in two directions and at two speeds.

    +1, and when in doubt ring them, talk slowly, tell them where you're from...... Email is great but I get the impression there's some 'stuff'
    that the U.S. shops that offer International shipping won't put in writing.
    They can be really "helpful", a $20.00 phone call can save a lot of time and money.

    Brought Razor HD gen 1, took 20 days from order on there website to get to my door. Some hassle here and there, 1st time buying a scope over the net and its alot of money to part with if it didn't arrive. Saved about $500, so I guess was worth it in the end. You can also track it. Should be an improvement on my 4-24X50 $62 scope from china. Yet to mount it as build still in progress.
