I have been looking for the best price for a pair of canon wp is 10x42 binos. Has anyone had any issues purchasing via ebay from hong kong, are there any warranty issues with this?  Does anyone know a competatively priced uk retailer ?

Agreed about not buying something like this from HK, not to mention the customs cost risk.

However that ABS is far and away the best deal I can find at the moment. The closest other two are both double the price:

I must admit I find the list of downsides in that link to be not very compelling.  The major downisde is, of course, warranty repair.  In most cases, if it goes wrong you will need to ship it back to the country from whence it came yourself ... unless you purchase from a reputable company like camerainthepost.

They are well designed, well made binoculars.

And i've my 15x50s for almost 11 years now and they have never missed a beat. 

I've used them extensively and they've proved very reliable. I wouldn't be without them. They always impress at our society observing sessions.

As i said, a no-going-back technology.

I've just brought my son a pair of 10x30s is for Xmas.
