I'm seeking some information regarding Leupold scopes, namely LEUPOLD VX-3I 3.5-10X40MM. There have been many instances of merchants selling counterfeit scopes on Ebay and elsewhere. Could any provide any insight as to how the exterior of the box is sealed and as to what, if any labels or stickers are affixed to the box. Secondarily, how can one determine a 'refurbished' scope, or one that may have been repackaged? Naturally, the serial numbers should provide the date of manufacture.
I recently made a purchase for the above Leupold scope and was concerned as to receiving an authentic Leupold scope. I do own other Leupold scopes but cannot recall if any labels or stickers were placed on the box. In fact, I do not believe this to be so.
*Enclosed are two pictures of the same Leupold scope with different color at the ends. Any and all information relating to the aforesaid is truly appreciated. All replies are welcome.
