Thread: Leupolds to get cds?

As Camo said, I recently got an elevation MOA CDS turret installed. I sent this via NZ Asia (Seemed the correct thing to do as they are the NZ distributors). Sent it away in June last year and was told 6-8 weeks, so I assumed that meant 8-12 weeks, WRONG, It took almost 6 months to come back.

Biggest problem I had was the lack of communication and the fact that when I contacted them they didn't seem to know where my scope was. They thought it was lost in transit for a while.

Was also quoted $120-130NZD for the turret (including shipping) but when it returned the cost was $180. Over the loooong time the scope was away the price had increased, not impressed. But just wanted my scope back and payed the inflated price, plus I didn't want the local hunting store to be out of pocket for NZ Asia's bullshit.

Dial works great though and am glad I have it, but will be buying the next scope with the CDS turrets already installed.

I had a similar experience when getting M1 turrets put on my VX3. After 4 months I e-mailed Luepold with the serial No and a discription of what I was having done asking for a progress report - got a "nice" e-mail back stating that the work was done on such and such date. Saw date and thought WTF, thats a month ago. Apparently was waiting to be shipped with NZ Asia's main order. Went to local shop and he chased it for me - had it 2 weeks later.
