Guest The Outlaw Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I have picked up and seen really good ones at carboot sales. People dont seem to know what they are selling. Pukka ones for as little as £10 Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pukka ones for as little as £10 Tony I agree, boot fairs are the place, because you won't get a great pair for £68 new. Most decent ones are a few hundred quid these days. I paid nearly £900 for mine :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oly Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I got a pair of New Bushnell Trophy's 8x56 for >£40 posted on fleabay last year - they are great, but I think that was a one off bargain as they're now well over £100! Checked them against ones in a shop and yep...they're not fakes! http://www.bushnell.com/general/binoculars...n=General%20Use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

webber Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 I recently bought some Swarovski 10 x 25s, most excellent and only 8 oz. There are some on fleabay at the moment with 4 days to go, they may be worth a punt. Mine were around £320 new. webber Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
