    Found 7x30 Habicht

    I'm just trying to decide if it's worth spending the $500 and shipping right now...thanks for all the feedback. Please keep the thoughts coming!

    Correct, they said these are Mark I.

    Filthy and the strap brackets are broken off. Hard telling what these have been through.

    I will get a few pics posted in a bit, but from further info via email, I send these back and they build an updated version, it seems. Here's an excerpt of an email from Swarovski: At a cost of $500, one of our Austrian trained technicians will build you a new pair of SLC Mark IV’s. It is...

    I will probably just take the loss on these. I do wear glasses so they are mostly unusable for me and it seems they cannot be repaired. Here is the latest from customer service: "Thank you for providing the photo. It has determined that we are unable to repair this product. Unfortunately Austria...

    Yes, it is the SLC, thanks. Not sure why that was omitted from my original post.

    ...at a thrift store in a bag with a pair of toy bins for $6.99. They are in ROUGH shape. I wonder if they are worth repair?

    Anyone repairing ZR?

    Yes, because as I look at Bushnell I don't see my 8x43 size preference. Thanks! ;)

    Anyone repairing ZR?

    Thanks, everyone. I'll just use mine until I find something I love. I appreciate your replies and thoughts. I'll keep you posted.

    No, nothing.

    Anyone repairing ZR?

    I am so annoyed with this whole thing. I bought three bins and a scope from Charles over the years. I feel totally ripped off. Especially since I have bins that have a broken objective lens from hitting the cement. He could've at least said "use XXXX company for repairs but be ready to pay".

    Why isn't Zen Ray fixing customer service?

    The good news, I guess, is you can't buy them anymore since they are closed. The bad news is, I'm learning, that my ZRs in need of repair are probably forever dead.

    Guess I'll hold off until April to see if they return like the website says they will. My bins still work just fine, but the objective lenses are both cracked from a flat fall on to concrete. :(

    Why isn't Zen Ray fixing customer service?

    The ZR facebook page appears to have been removed and there's a note on their website about revamping the site and it should return in 2018. I need warranty work and can't get in touch with Charles. I've emailed and called a number listed on the net, but it goes to a personal voicemail that...

    Thanks, Steve. He finally got back with me this afternoon.
