    From my experience, they check your IP, your billing address and ask you to answer a bunch of questions and fill a declaration form if the order has any ITAR item. These are all recent experience in the past few months.

    Ironically, I got a large nanuk rifle case from them for half of the price than the one I ordered from Montreal.

If don’t like the “deal” I walk...... just trying to provide help here... nothing more, nothing less

    Same with me. Ended up buying in Australia and saved $600 cos local agent wouldn't even consider dropping his price.

    I'm probably not going to buy any Bushnell branded gear after that,
    They may want to support theiving rip off merchants who suck up to Bucktooth but I wont.

    I got the same response so I buy no more of the loopy product, tried local prices and time scales no thanks, had a fancy for a new VX5 when they came out.

    I had to settle with importing S&B, Sharavoski, Leica, Elcan & Nightforce the injustice of it all

    Just my 2 cents.

    What do you mean?

    I just go to the .com site instead of .ca, or there is another one for NZ?

    By the way, I am heading back next month, if anyone needs a favor, don't mind to add something in my luggage as long as it doesn't get me into trouble.

    I’ve bought quite a few scopes off:

    Optics Zone

    They’ve always been great to deal with

    I just ordered a pair of Leicas from Eurooptic, very helpful and easy to deal with. Having someone bringing a pair back for me.
