Bought from another member and won't fit between the mounts on my rifle. Already researched and found another ON SALE :) to replace it. Scope is used and has light ring marks. Includes Leupold rubber scope cover. $175 shipped, same as I paid.

Due to an unfortunate issue with PayPal the scope is back up for sale. No explanations, just a bad way to learn something new. I was told to move on and sell it to someone else. So, here we go again.
 
Here's a lesson learned type of a tip for anyone using PayPal to buy items in the future. Have the seller send a request for payment. That way if there is a mixup you will know it. Hopefully the money gets returned in this case. PayPal said if it was marked as "gift" they can't and won't do anything about it. He's digging into it with his secret weapon. Mama! If the guy it went to will refuse payment it's all good. Time will tell.
 
Here's what is interesting. PayPal accounts are designated by email address or mobile phone number. I typed in Dave's email exactly how he gave it yet PayPal sent it to another account of a guy with the same name. Completely different email address. Getting through to an intelligent human at PayPal has been impossible. So far but there's always tomorrow.
 
Never used PayPal. Never will. I’ve heard of other issues with that outfit.

I never will again. Personal check or money order from here on out. No cooperation from PayPal. It's possible that Dave's account was hacked, possible computer glitch. I do know that I sent it to the email address Dave gave me but that isn't where it went. Dave feels bad for what happened but neither of us had any control over it. This is all on PayPal.
 
Well, I have a new buyer for the scope sending a money order. That works. As far as PayPal goes I didn't realize you could use phone numbers. I've always used the email address. I'll look into this. I also would want to try sending a request for payment and start with $1 to make sure it works before sending the rest. I sold @Nick87 some socks recently and it worked then. No idea what happened here. I do hope @Redmt gets it straightened out on his end and mama doesn't knot his head too much!
