There are knockoff Leupold Scopes made in China that retail for around $35.00 - if you buy 4, shipping to NA is free & only takes a week normally.
Leupold has or had a warning on these on their web site, similar to the warnings WWGreener had on the Belgium English gun Imitations back in 1910.
The scopes look identical on the outside - same markings, gold ring etc & Leupold name stamp.
Couple guys on an air gun forum bought them and liked them. Go figure. They have been listed on E-bay for anywhere from $150.00 to $250.00 in an E-Bay add shown by one of these guys.
Funny, we as private citizens in Canada can buy scopes from China or Europe, but not from the States.
How annoying that would be. To buy a "pre-owned" scope and find the seller selling it is knowingly flogging off a fake brand scope at a huge profit to the purchase price. A good reason to support good trademark standards. And also actions against anyone selling fake brandname products knowingly without full declaration of what it is, in our countries. (Obviously not referring to bidyanus in this comment, who is not re-selling the scope.)
