I recently had to send in a 1 year old pair of 15’s for repair. They were out of Collimation. Likely due to me dropping them. I recieved the same note from Katerina Gavendova that was posted above. The shipping from idaho to the overseas factory cost me about $100 because I insured them for less than $500 and sent via post office. The customs form took a bit of time to fill out.

Sending them to Czechia was annoying and expensive shipping, but they were repaired for free and returned to me in good working order for free.

It really is too bad that meopta has pulled CS out of the us due to their recent purchase by a different company but they still seem to take care of customers in my single experience.

However, I wonder what would have happened if I had sent in my 10 year old pair of 10x binos ….

For what it’s worth I still think the Meostars are probably some of the toughest optics built. I’ve crashed dirt bikes several times with them on my chest without issue. The 15’s failed because I’m an idiot and they rolled down the mountain in my camp bag lol.
