Cheap joy
Guess you can call me cheap but I get a thrill out of destroying the scalpers market.
Sometime ago, I felt the need for some high mounts for my air rifle.
Since mine doesn't kick like a mule or do a double slam or whatever, one decided that a single set of screws type of mount
would do.
My B-Square mounts drive me up the wall every time I switch scopes or rifles.
Having decided on the type I thought where from?
Importing from the USA didn't make sense as the courier would up the cost X number of times.
So I went into my old sasta and tikaou site : DX T
After a few moments of surfing I found em, a princely sum of $3 delivered to my door.
The only drawback being that it took about a month and a few more days to get to me.
So take a look, I'm pretty confident that they will work just fine for my needs.
Regards,
Dev

If you take any activity, any art, any discipline, any skill - take it and push it as far as it will go, push it beyond where it has ever been before, push it to the wildest edges of edges, then you force it into the realm of magic.

I bought a US $ 9 (free shipping) single piece telescope mount from DX.com. Delivered in 15 days as promised. The mount is fine, but because the mount worked well the old telescope I had had a chance to prove that it was not springer ready - the crosshiars moved off to a crazy angle

Re: Cheap joy
Well done chaps. DX seems to be a good place for our little joys. The sweet sixteen scope looks very tempting.Wish the Rupee would rally around again.

Re: Cheap joy
The best part is I did not recive the mount and the 4x20 scope ,after I raised a issue against it ,the DX team resent the articles which I recieved later ,that really enhanced my faith .@Dev the sweet Seventeen is a extremely good one ,very clear lenses and very well finished .Its waiting for a PCP though !!! . There is even a Leaper bugbuster mini available for 62 $ and I have reasons to believe it will withstand a spring airgun like precihole .

Re: Cheap joy
They might just be knock offs but turn out very good most of the time
