[QUOTE="Sako7STW, post: 615526, member: 2112"] The thing about those of us that get to enjoy the finer things in life second handly is even the second hand stuff will get to high. It works like this. Guy A buys scope in 2009 for $800. Uses it for 2 years. Same scope gets released in 2012 for $1499. Great for guy A he can now sell his scope for $800 when it really is only worth $400. The other problem is only a few can afford $4000. So now the rest are looking for the "affordable" used scopes. All the used scopes get bought up and now they become higher priced due to supply and demand. It is s vicious cycle and it all starts with the greedy sob company peoples behind those private meeting doors. Thats the real economics of it! [/QUOTE]
