(1) Average hunters will notice 2 main differences in $1000+ scopes...

Sharper, larger, better quality picture.
(Not necessarly the scopes' image, just the full-page front cover advertisements!)
But read these ads-may be the only way to learn how "superior" your purchase is.

(2) The potential owner will have money to squander.

only my opinion

The more I learn and read about scopes the better I like a good set of irons.
