Counterfeit Leicas?

Hi.

I’ve been pricing Leica Ultravids to replace my stolen binoculars. Basically you can buy them $1000-$1500 cheaper on Ebay type sites around the world than in Australia

Does any body have any experience or comments on this? Are this bins counterfeit? There is not much on the internet only warnings from authorised dealers.

How does this so called grey market work?

Regards

Allan Benson

    Hi Alan,

    I have bought binoculars and a scope from the US online before. Adorama were good (no vested interest).

    They are lisenced dealers and were very good in my experience.

    Cheers,

    Nathan
