It's the same here in Europe and even worse locally than buying from our neighbours.
In considering my next scope I have to seriously consider the US even with the risks invoved and the hassle to go to, do I want something second hand with no warranty or something brand new with no warranty?
May as well go second hand from the states and save a bundle more.
The two major dealers are digging themselves in a hole with their policies and I hope it back fires eventually.
