Do you hear that whistling noise? It's getting louder and louder like something falling through the air.... it's wait.... the resale value of your Premier scopes...
In all seriousness, I do understand your frustration. I bought my Premier scope shortly before the rumor mill about Premier being on the precipice of bankruptcy hit these forums. I had bought my Premier from Scott and when i called him about everything he was honest and straight with me, said if I was that worried he'd see me right about the scope but said I should wait it out. I did, Premier didn't go bust and I was able to sell my scope (I preferred the Hensoldt) at a small profit even.
Scott was a MAJOR contributor to Premier's early success if only for the high number of scopes he put into the market. By doing so word got out, more people were able to look through their buddy's Premier to see for themselves the glass and heft of them. And then Premier brags about making an example of Scott. Instead they should have called Scott BEFORE he got the letter, should have warned Scott that ATI don't play nice and should have looked out for Scott and been loyal to him in the manner he was to them... Chris Thomas didn't even return his messages. <span style="font-weight: bold">A simple phone call and some basic decency would have prevented a lot of stupidity.</span>
I doubt Premier's latest example of Public Relations Holocaust will effect the second hand market of their scopes (no money is going to Premier so why should it), but it deserves to dent their new scopes sales and judging by all the posts here, it probably will. In fact, I'd be interested to see how far up the Google list this thread makes it when someone Google's "Premier Heritage Scope"... talk about unintended consequences.</div></div>
That my friend is something long gone in todays society
sad but true. They would rather work behind someones back and let the loyal person die for a couple of extra dollars that they might get from the mo*&^& FU%#*$ING SNITCH! Really sad world. Like jrob said its not the handshake business of the olden days anymore its about deceiving people for money.
