I was just cheking out Leupold site because I wanted to read about the new BX-4Hd binos, and looked at the prices for their stuff. I then realized that the new 2-12x42 is below half the price of what it cost here in Denmark.. thats just crazy. Dont know why Leupold is so expensive around here..
Well just because of the prices im going to find a way to get a VX-6 2-12x42 #4 Firedot + BX-4HD to my home! Either by taking a vacation to the states or find a way to get it shipped haha. I saw the VX-6 is 30mm scope, since when have Leupold moved away from the 1" scopes? |

Import taxes.....that's why so expensive......most manufacturers in us or supplying us have continued to move to 30mm not sure exactly when though. If I recall Denmark is near the top total tax rate, highest level of happiness though.....highest suicide rate. Worked for a Danish company a bit, they just bought tons of crap in us and shipped it back in large shipping containers or mailed back to themselves at company expense.

Ah okay that seems right.
Dont know if it is possibe to get the optics shipped. They will probably get taken in customs and then I have to pay the same price as it retails around here.. |
