The only problem with buying OS is if something goes wrong. It would be a real problem trying to correct a lemon mount or scope from a distance. I generally buy OS for things that don't often go wrong--saddle plates, mounting rings and so on. Sometimes you find that you may get an item quicker from OS rather than waiting on an Oz dealer for his new stock to arrive.

BTW my GM8 is pretty solid for the gear I have and tracks well---well worth the money. And speaking of money, I paid $4200 about a year ago when the Aussie dollar was lower than it is now. I see its current price is $4179.
