I'm mean to Ebay Counterfeiters. Over the years, I've ordered several VXIII or Mark 4 scopes on Ebay knowing they had to be fake. First clue, too cheap. Second clue, shipping out of China not Oregon. Once in hand I call up Leupold and check out the scope's serial number. When it comes back as not one of theirs, I request a text or Email. Once that's in hand, I fill out a PayPal request saying the advertised product was not delivered and is a counterfeit attaching my email from Leupold as proof. Ebay could care less, but PayPal shuts them down and refunds my money. I then crush it in a hydraulic press and attach that video to my seller's feedback. It took a while but I really put a dent in the counterfeit operations on Ebay's counterfeit Leupold Scopes.

You
are
a
hero!

And I mean it!
That is 🔝!


Thank you for taking the time doing us all a favor.

I appreciate it very much. 🤝🏼

Being the pattern seeking human that I instinctually am, my b*llsh*t detector went off as soon as I saw that every single scope on the linked page was 79% off.
My BS detector would have went off prior to clicking the link, it is a targeted scam ad on FB, like all the other ads on the internet...

I think someone said you shouldn't click on random links before and you said they are not random, which is even more reason NOT TO CLICK.


An even bigger issue is counterfeit products where a major online retailer couldn't care less that they are fully enabling and profiting from illegal product cloning (cough Amazon cough).
