Rifle Scopes Schmidt & Bender PM II 4-16x50 Pricing?

Doing my research again, I came across this Great article from the Hide and 6mmBR.com on the PM II. http://www.6mmbr.com/SchmidtBenderPM2.html

I noticed that the scope was selling for $2020.00 in the review. I did a Google search and found the pricing is now at almost $3,000.00 WTH is going on? Did the price of this scope go up over 50% since the article? If so, that is a HUGE mark up....

Can anyone give me some insight if this is the going price and why the huge jump in cost. Thanks again

Yup prices went up. S&B spiked hard over the past year or so.

Let me bump this one for Adam, he has some fantastic deals on these scopes. I just ordered one, and can't wait for it to get here. Great guy to deal with too!

Makes no sense in that the EURO is down and there has been no change in the S&B pricing.
I buoght a few custom bows handmade from Scotland and the price has gone down 31% since its peak

Actually, Bill - those prices are all down roughly $500.00 from just a few months ago and pretty damn good for PMIIs' right now. I believe that the Premier Heritages coming on-line is partially responsible for the S & B price softening.

Are you comparing a non-illuminated scope price to the price of an illuminated scope?
