[QUOTE="Ingwe, post: 2043652, member: 35101"] I have a LIKE NEW condition 2 year old Swarovski 6-18x50 X5 Scope 1/4" Non-Illuminated BMR reticle. On a recent Leopard hunt, at dusk, and in poor light, I realized that my eyes are aging and I had trouble seeing the reticle. I now realize that I SHOULD have bought the Illuminated reticle initially! Aging!! The other day I reached out to SWFA to enquire about a swap for a new X5 with the illuminated reticle model that I want, however, they really low-balled me with a trade in offer of only $1,300....and that is also giving them the $250 aluminum Swarovski scope covers. I paid almost $3,000 for the scope only 2+- years ago and it is in pretty much new condition, so I decided to turn down the offer. That said, I was wondering if any of you know where I can swap my scope for the illuminated model? I don't know of any other business who does swaps. I do realize that any business needs to make a profit but the SWFA offer is pretty ridiculous. Any guidance of suggestions that you can throw my way would be greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
