3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

I ruined a nice pair of leupold Katmai 10x32 binoculars,my kids got ahold of them and severly scratched the coating off the lenses[:o]Sent them in to leupold to see if they could have the lenses replaced,instead the UPS man just brought me a BRAND new still in the wrapper pair from Leupold at no charge!Now thats customer service

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

Indeed -- That's why EVERY optic Iown is Leupold. At the very least they will stand by their products - no questions.

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

Now that’s what you call customer service...

dvdegeorge,

I too have had good service from Leupold. I have a gun/scope combo I haven't used in 20 years and couldn't remember some features of the scope and the owners manual was long gone. I emailed Leupold for the owners manual and got itwithin a few days.
Definitely great people to deal with.

That is excellent. It is comments such as these that would make me want to be Leupold. How are those Katmai anyway? I was tempted to pick up a pair of their 8x32s.

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

I'm very happy with the Katmai Binoculars.They aren't Swarovski's but then again they don't cost well over $1000.00They are clear and sharp and I would recomend them.

I have the olympic 8X42 and I love them. They are reasonably priced compaired to the other high end models and they perform well. I've heard nothing but good about customer service even though I've yet to use it. My step dad has leupolds on all his guns and has had no troubles either. Well worth the money IMO.

I put a Luepold on my sons muzzeloader for the eye reliefe but after checking his scope against mine I will be a fan for life!

That is good service and why so many people are loyal Leupold customers. But I will say that Leupold does not have a monopoly on great customer service. I have had the exact same kind of service from Zeiss. I sent them a scope I had damaged due to my own negligence and asked if they could do anything with it. I sent it to them on a Monday and the following Monday I received a brand new replacement at no cost. It sure is nice to deal with companies like this (Leupold, Zeiss, etal.).

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

dvdegeorge, I agree that Leupold's aren't Swarovski's. They are better and they are made in the USA. At one time the German made optics was superior. Today's German optics are still good, but with no improvement other than powers over the years many US manufactures are exceeding the standards first set by the European models. The introduction of American made 30mm tubes with quality lenses and coating has outdistanced the imports, plus service and warranty are far superior to the imports.

Hey...is a Leupold 3-9 40mm (3x9x40) scope for $200 worth getting for my Knight .50 caliber Muzzleloader? What mounts do you recommend? Will it be a good choice to put on a .300Winchester Magnum as well? Are there any high qualityscopesthat arecheaperthatI can get for my .50 caliber Muzzleloader that will stay on tight and are waterproof and etc?

Thanks:)

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

leupold all the way;)

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

Yep, that is customer service bygollies. :)

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

Go for it. Ive got a Leupold Rifleman 3-9x40 I payed $200 for on my .308 and a Leupold VX-I 3-9x40 I payed $220 for on my .300 win mag :D

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

I've got a Leupold VXII 2-7x33 on my Knight .50 cal and it's awesome! Getting ready to mount my VXII 3-9x40 on my Rem. 700 30-06. I can't wait! Although I don't own one, I've heardnothing but good about Zeiss.

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

It's wonderful to hear there are companies that stand behind their products. Most optics should be a once in a lifetime purchase. Too bad Bushnell has not figured this out yet. Bushnell customer servicestinks and I'm ranting again.....but I still hate Bushnell....Love their scopes but the customer service is horrible and their warranties are misleading. Go Leupold and any other company that stands behind their products.....

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

Does anyone have a phone number for Leupolds customer service?

thanks

30-30 Man: I have nothing but fantastic service fron Bushnell. Sent three scopes for checks and possible repairs (only one under warranty) - all three came back good as new - no charge . I also have 3 leopold's and a redfield. i sure can't say anything bad about Bushnell's service or warranty policies. Mind you this was through the Canadian branch.

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

Leupold now imports much of its glass. I have had good service from them but no better than from Bushnell.

RE: 3 Cheers for Leupold!!!!
 

During WW11, the German bombing optics were the best in the world.
Todays Optromotist equipment used in the US, use Zeiss Optics. If it's
the best to have your eyes checked, than must be the best for rifle scopes.

I know, most hunters are family working men/women thatare on a budget,
but Zeiss is still #1. To each his own!
