WTB Optics Trade-in Program

[5RWill]

I tried trading in a new in box Zeiss Conquest V4 4-16x44 and a new in box Athlon Ares BTR Gen 2 2.5-15x50. They offered me $200 for the Zeiss and would take the Athlon.

That's asinine, better off selling. Jesus

Based on the prior offer, I have ya $300 and some deer jerky to make you feel better

at least I’d have something to cry into while I mourn the loss of the Nightforce I now can’t afford.

Items are inspected and cleaned prior to listing and shipment. Used optics are sold as-is and sales are...

They offered me $400 for a like new pair of Swarovski SLC 8x42s. Talk about setting the precedent for low balling.

I got a price a why’ll back on a practically brand new gen 2 razor scope. Insultingly low, especially knowing they were going to re sell for new price. Even the “store credit” value was bad

Are we sure this isn’t the pawnstar guys just starting a used optics branch of their pawn shop?

 

[DakotaBPNW]

Do you think they’re open to haggle on pricing?

I didn’t get that impression, but I honestly didn’t try. I was too annoyed.

I shot them an offer for a pair of SLC’s just to test the waters. Guess we will see

I recently traded in some EL Ranges, they were fair to deal with and communication was great.

Let us know how it turns out.

Yeah, let us know if it works. If so, I may reengage.

We are auctioning trade-in items here.

That link doesn’t work? Is there another one?

They got rid of their auction and only sell used optics now.
