APA scope rings issue

[huntinfool18]

Has anyone had issues with APA rings? I ordered these last week and what I received is totally different. I ordered the trulock 34mm low rings, they came in the correct box, sealed and everything but the rings themselves can be had on Amazon for $12. Was just curious if this a normal thing for APA?
I am 99% sure these are the same exact rings I found on Amazon. All the measurements match up and it even has the tape on the inside.

Where did you order them from? The base looks different.

Optics planet

My guess is that someone returned the Amazon rings to Optics Planet in an APA box and they didn't catch it. You may want to email a picture to APA to double check.

That's what I was thinkin but the original APA seal/sticker hadn't been broken. Even the suppled wrench dosnt match the screws.
I wrote APA an email as well asking if they had a design change and their thoughts on the situation.

Someone scammed Optics Planet, then they passed it on to you. (maybe not intentionally, but...)

The rings in your pic don't look anything like the APA rings.

I hate cheaters and thieves. Just saying!

Those are not APA rings. Never have had issues with APA. I've had issues with products bought on OpticsPlanet and Amazon though.

I think you should be emailing OpticsPlanet as well as they sold them to you.

I just searched Amazon and can't find these rings on the site. you order Trulock 34 or API ones, to many replies getting confused what rings you did get.?

I ordered the APA rings and got something different. I have emailed both APA and opticsplant. Hopefully we can get it resolved.
Received a reply back from APA already, they confirmed that they are not their rings. I'm on board with what was mentioned above, someone must of played a fast one on opticsplanet.

May be like the Chinese made leupold scopes. Looks just like one, gold ring, the works. Except that they are older looking models, and sell to $129.99
Never know what you will get sometimes. Even from well known vendors.

Yea that happens, I ordered 30mm rings and in the box , was 1 " rings. They sent me new set !! It was just a time delay for me.

I'm thinking that APA had nothing to do with it. After a bad experience with their deliberately misleading page for a part that I needed I just don't buy ANYTHING from OpticsPlanet. They burnt me badly enough that I'll do without before I'll buy from them. Search here and other forums, you'll find stories like mine.
