LEUPOLDS Too Good To Be True!

Nah!!! Got to be fake and a fake website.

That's insane.

Where are the fact checkers?!?!?!?

I'm buying 6!

......with Monopoly money....

I have never ever seen Leupolds That cheap.Not even used ones. Not in less they were in rough shape.

It is space aliens trying to see how gullible we are:

Take one for the team....

Looks like it is a Portuguese based company, so maybe in Portugal or another country that uses Portuguese as its base language. Could be real, could be fake, could be wishful thinking? ;~)

Maybe they purchased all of Aliexpress’s Leupold clones on the cheap....

Wow, they're not even going to try to pretend to be a legit business at all huh? I mean price them a few hundred bucks below the normal price and maybe even take 25%-30% off to try to entice some bargain hunters...but $99? That just basically screams "yeah, this is a scam - we dare you to buy one!"

Well I sure got ripped off I paid $900 for my Leupold scope and there it is for $99. Really disappointed I am. ;^)

Bestway shipping and PayPal is the only payment method for my newest scope? ;^) WOW such a deal it is I save over $800 on a $900 scope. Almost hard to believe it is.

I am sure there is someone who will fall for the scam though.

What is the min. focus distance? 10 25 or 50 yds? I can not seem to find it stated anywhere I've looked

It's a scam site so it really does not matter.

"If it seems too good to be true,________________________".

The IP address for that webpage is in the "Cloudflare" network which is similar to a VPN so you have no idea who or where they are. In other words, most likely not going to give you what you pay your money for.

Just recently I wrote to Leopold because they neglect to state minimum parallax on their company webpage(!). (Got me to wonder why?)

Minimum parallax distance is one of the most important scope specs for airgunners....  





Their customer service was very good by writing back to me almost immediately.

With very bad news. They currently only offer 2 scopes (in words: TWO SCOPES) that focus down to 11y. And neither has a holdoff reticle.

PS: Meet The Leopold Scope Collection of 11y-parallax scopes:

▪VX Freedom 3-9x33 EFR (fine duplex reticle)

▪VX-3i 6.5-20x40 EFR (fine duplex)

Disappointing. For some reason, Leupold has ignored the air gun market. I would think the AG market is large enough to encourage some R&D toward bringing some products to market. Maybe they don't believe they could be price competitive with the imports, and maybe they're right. But, I think the high-end air gun scope market is viable, and it would be great to see Leupold participate. 

@elh0102 I agree with you and I hope that changes soon.

Matthias, thank you for the min focal distance info.
