Thread: Zeiss Scopes

anyone purchased one recently?

Overseas or local?

Yep. 3*9 40 H+F.
Pretty good buying at eight hundy.
At this price there was very little on USA imported.
And you get it same day

I brought my Zeiss at H&F and want the recital changed from duplex to the other one I saw in the mag which is what I wanted but didn't want to wait for. I should have waited but I didn't.

How much does it cost and where do I go to do it. Should I take it back to H&F or email them or something?

HD5 from the States recently.

I had a reticle changed on a Zeiss scope about 9 years ago. The scope had to go back to Germany which does not have a postal agreement re insurance with NZ, so it had to have separate insurance, and had to go a particular way. The Germans seem to be very particular. The cost was about $70 to send it, and about $250 for the reticle change and return postage/insurance. I imagine the cost is up a bit on those prices now.

They do have a certain reputation to live up to!

Sell it on tard me and buy new on the opticzone

Just picked up a Terra3 4-12 with the RZ8 from Cameraland NY.
I picked it up so paid local sales tax - was $369+ tax so under $400
Thats a pretty mint price IMO

Hell yes. $900nz is still a steal

My $ quoted are $US and from poss the cheapest seller on the market

I just brought a 3-15 x 42 HD5 with the target turrets, mint scope ( centre of the cross hairs are a little thick & is quite weighty) but still good

I went down to my local retailer and with'in two days was holding it, I support my local guys ( they might be a little dearer than getting in from offshore but shit I can put it on my account & it's easy )


Don't get to hung up & buying stuff from overseas websites, why they might seem cheaper ( and in many circumstances they are alot cheaper ) it's still alright to buy local after all they like all of us are just trying to make a $$

Thats under half what I paid at H&F!

That's a cheap scope, for all that enjoyment!
