Bought My Back Up Bino`s Today


Recommended Posts

Grypho

I looked at the site and recon I might get a pair myself at that price. Shame the dollar isnt so good at the moment they would be even cheaper.

Any time I hear people ask how many of anything do you need I think maybe they havent had the experiences that make you understand how things can go wrong and why you need backup equipment. Beside that why do we need to justufy overindulgence in a sport we love.

Sometimes I think the sport is in deciding what to buy next ;)

Sierra gave me a 15% discount off my next order which makes another pair $295 AUSSIE delivered to the door.

Joe i have to confess mate,i bought them for Rono using my card as a favour hahaah,just a bit of a shite stir for him....I still have my 8 x30 Preds that Gibbo loved so much he went a got a pair too.

At the price they are excellent bino`s and cheap as and very much well worth the price even with the buck up to shite.

The look like a very good buy! I honestly can't imagine tryining to stalk deer without good bino's...I bought a cheap pair of 7x50 Minoltas when I started and over a period of about 4 years the literally fell to bits...

in all seriousness what a Joke those prices are nearly quadruple what Rono picked his up for Bino's are duty free so you can't tell me freight and GST knock em up that high -- and yet they will no doubt have a cry cos we go OS for em

Spot on Balty,Rono`s were $195 USD now the price is back to $218 USD (still cheap)

With freight to the door in AUD the price was $340

We have been gutted for way too long by greedy merchants.

I'll admit i have and will still defend local retailers many times even the Aus Importers for some things but those prices are just outright Rape
