Its an interesting choice isn't it? Obviously its cost vs what you want to achieve. And yes these scopes are very expensive with most having US dollar price tags.
When you consider the costs of losing when reselling then there is a case for saving up and getting a really good scope once and using the hell out of it.
Another point I should have mentioned.
The Tak scopes etc are very liquid in the sense that they will resell quickly and for a good price. Lower end scopes devalue much harder and you will lose more on resale. So you can use a high end scope like an FSQ for a few years and sell it and you will only lose a few hundred dollars which you could consider "rental".
In fact one strategy if you can plan it out and have the patience - is to buy an expensive scope when our dollar is strong and then later if you tire of it you can sell it for a profit if our dollar goes down again (pretty reliable that it will at some point).
