I've had a couple of new scopes fail and several people who have had the same thing happen to them.
This was a cheap scope. But a well known brand name. For me the problem is I've heard of it happening with high priced very popular brand names and I have had many very disappointing results when asking for warranty coverage.
Years ago I bought a brand new Anschutz .22 and a mid range Bushnell scope to go with it. A few months later an inner lens in that scope came loose. I couldn't see anything through it after that.
The store I bought it from said I had dismantled it so they would not honor the warranty. The warranty card said to return it to the point of purchase so there went $250.00 bucks
That was over thirty years ago. $250.00 bucks was a substantial sum for a hunting scope in those days.
