Thread: Scope under warranty repair

So my VX5 had to go back to the States for repair as it had a strange bit inside floating around.
So my question is for those that have had one repaired who covers the freight.
H &F charged me $45

Yeah, I had to cover the freight to & from NZ Asia in Nelson, but wasn't anything like that much

My horizontal line in mine looks a bit furry. No drama but considering doing something about it. 2nd leupy scope to have 'issues"

If you brought it from hunting and fishing and have a receipt i believe its up to H&F to wear cost and sort it out. There was a story on fairgo a while ago

Personally I have just sent them to NZ Asia direct, cause screw humping and fisting and NZ Asia have always been great to deal with

Asia said it had to go back through that bloody green shed so I'm waiting to see where that cost came from.
If it's from New Plymouth to Nelson it sucks and if it's to the States it still sucks.
Having to cover warranty issues is part of being in business.

Our local charges $40 so might be a common fee

My understanding of consumer law is it is your responsibility to get it back to whoever you bought it from. Your contract in this case is with H&F not NZ Asia or Leupold.

Humping and Fisting strikes again.

Not sure why people use the middle man. Contact leupold directly and send to them. Easy to deal with, constant updates on job and progress.

Its what I do.

I have emailed Leopold to find out who should pay.
I know it's not a lot of $ but when we were in business any warranty issues we covered the freight cost as it's part of doing business.

Yep. NZs retail sector is really poor when it comes to dealing with warranties. I tried to send my scope through NZ Asia, absolute stuff around. Got my scope back, emailed leupold, filled the form and sent it to USA. Easy as.
