Have you seen what three individuals are selling their Leupold 36x for on eBay? Holly Smokes.. anywhere from $1400 to $1200. Ten years ago they were $500. BUT then again anything is worth what somebody is willing to pay. Still, I don't think you could go wrong with a 36xDave 50,
You are spot on about the original Leup. 36x scopes. I have 6 of them, and all have been perfect except one. That one simply is not crystal clear, and has been back to Leup. twice with no improvement. Two of them are the original friction focusing system on the very first version of the scope. Bought those new around 1980 and paid $175.00 for them. One of the 36 BR-d models has the Tucker conversion. In todays market, a good used one will go for $400+/-.
FWIW

Look at the "Sold" ones; well below $1200.Have you seen what three individuals are selling their Leupold 36x for on eBay? Holly Smokes.. anywhere from $1400 to $1200.
Thanks Hunter. I've been on eBay for years and I didn't know that you could look back and check what other things sold for. So the average of 13 scopes, one seller posted his scope twice, was $835.. The average would have been lower if one seller didn't sell his for $1400... But the sellers of today are selling for a higher price. What would you do Hunter?Look at the "Sold" ones; well below $1200.
Regarding your "average," I suspect you used the asking price on those "or-Best-Offer" scopes, and I don't believe the actual selling price is shown. Regarding the $1400 scope that sold on Dec 28th, that was an "or-Best-Offer" scope, and I doubt that it sold for $1400. Where the actual selling price is shown, the average appears to be much less than $835.So the average of 13 scopes, one seller posted his scope twice, was $835.. The average would have been lower if one seller didn't sell his for $1400...What would you do Hunter?
Nobody in their right mind would drop that kind of $ for a 36.Have you seen what three individuals are selling their Leupold 36x for on eBay? Holly Smokes.. anywhere from $1400 to $1200.
