    Yes I have got a feeling this is probably just a case of "buyers remorse" or he has got a bent barrel , I have never had a problem with paypal before but as soon as they have refunded the bellend I am going to be closing my account with them.

    I would not think anything is wrong with your scope.
    Not everyone can set up a scope properly if it doesn't sight in first go.

    In bright daylight, sit a mirror on the table and sit the scope upright with the objective bell upwards, look down through it and you will see two sets of crosshairs. Adjust the windage and elevation until they are superimposed on one another. Scope is now optically centred.

    I would be poking the buyer about his firearms history, and doing a bit of digging. Nobody likes a walt.

    I find that it helps if you set minimum mag and also put the IR on low if it has this feature.

    Any sales I see him involved in across the forums and I will be sending a warning pm to the other parties.
