Well they still have the non-OPMOD, all black regular P4Xi's with the P3TR reticles listed at $800.
I think what's happening is that with the choice of all black regular Steiner P4Xi w/ P3TR reticle optics priced at $800 vs the same optics with a big white billboard displaying "OPMOD: Optics Planet Limited Edition" also listed at $800 - no one was picking the latter. I sure would rather not have a cheesy label on the side of an $800 optic if given the choice. They're probably just sitting on a bunch of them is my guess.
Just a quick update. I did not buy the P4Xi from Optics Planet. I had it in my cart and was going to go for it, but when I went to continue the checkout process after work I saw the price went back up to around $700.
It wasn't anything shady like the price changing last second at checkout. They just changed the discount from 46% to 26%. I asked them if they'd honor the $499 price from a few hours earlier (when I still had it in my cart before going to work) and they said no. At $700 I'll just get a black one without OP's logo on the side.
Was it still in the time frame?
happened to me when I went for the PA glx 2.5-10 with the 23% of code because for some reason the code stopped working at noon instead of midnight.
seeing as it takes them forever to answer an email I put the order in anyway and they figured out the issue then refunded me the remaining amount.
I didn't see any time frame specified. When I used the CS chat feature, the rep replied with "unfortunately prices are subject to change any time". I didn't press it any further and just deleted the cart
So I bought one the other week. It was only 469$, it’s my first P4xi and I wanted to see what the hype was about.
I was very happy with the scope. Lived up to its rep. Additionally the reticle was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I’m actually totally fine with it.
Hopefully they sized the diamond like SWFA did for bullet compensation. Top of diamond is 100, center dot is 50/200, bottom diamond is 300. I was making first round hits at a Legion 5k match several years ago off the back of a wooden horse. Shoot torso 2x at 50, 1x at 100 torso, back to 50 x2, 200 yard torso, back to 50 x2, last 300 yard torso using the SWFA 1-4 diamond reticle.
