Thread: Nightforce scope issue

at $1790 AUD exchanged at .90 with gst is about $2300 NZD . its not quite the half of the $2799 they are here . and thats without freight . I will be interested in hearing the test result of the scope as we see very very little problems with them . I Offered for him to send it to us for sorting but I guess he chose to send it back to Australia.

Genuine interest, apart from freight…… why the extra $499 NZD over and above the AUD price?
21% price increase by your figures.

nightforce give us a recommended retail price to use , we also have freight costs . We cant control what other countries sell for , the US for instance are so competitive they sell on low margin and high volume and sell direct to the end user , In NZ we cannot do the volume to work like that , as we also have a wholesale margin in there for the odd shop that wants to sell them.

I also work for a distributor. Our entire yearly order for all models (and we sell a lot) is just under what a large us retail chain store (basspro) sells of a single model in a single month. Obviously they get a better "volume discount"
It would be cheaper for me to buy one of our products online and ship it here as Basspro's retail price is less than our buy price

I brought my own Nightforce locally "just in case", god forbid it should ever break, I would prefer to have someone local to yell at
