It SHOULD be here in the next 4 weeks... we'll see..
The killer was the shipping...$40 for the base, $67 for shipping, and $20 for taxes (including VAT and customs hopefully!!) for a total of $127 for a $40 scope base..
(I tried ordering from Optics EU but after waiting 8 weeks when they said it would be 6 weeks, then being told it would be another 4 weeks I cancelled and got a refund)
I hope for your sake the seller has not used the ebay global shipping program .
