I had an ATN 6-18x65.  I liked it fine.  The glass is moderate, eyebox is CRITICAL, but the BDC was very good and it performed well.  Did a very good job in low light. HOWEVER, I paid about half that for mine, from a supplier.  I would not give more than about $350.00 for it.  Try to trade it in at SWFA... I don't think you would get anything.  Overall, it's not BAD... a good "play with it" scope, and I hunted quite a bit with mine.  It is heavy and most people don't like the weight.
Understand, when I bought mine, I went through six before I found one that everything worked.  They honored their warranty very well, but it was a hassle to get to the one that worked.  
At your own risk...

okay thanks I think Ill pass he seemed all to willing to sell it off quick.  I think Ill go with a Burris or something like that.  I have roughly 650 dollars to spend any thoughts on something good at that price?

Look at the SS line on SWFA's site.  You can find something that will serve you very well and you will be happy with.  Look especially at the new 3-15, the 3-9, the 6x and the 10x.

Lifetime warranty and excellent customer service don't mean a thing when your gun fails during a zombie attack.
