A new set of bins to the 'collection'!!, Nikon content..

[johnbaz]

Hi all

Recently i've gotten to like binoculars and have bought a few pairs recently!!

The latest are a pair of Nikon Monarch 8x42 waterproof, I got them at the local bootsale and have to say the quality is phenominal!!!

I paid just £20 for them and have been told that they're over £200 new!!..

I believe they're classed as roof prism binoculars...

I bought a pair of Zeiss Jena last week from a lady on fleabay, I made her an offer of £25 if they didn't sell on the bay, no one made the opening bid of £40 but she said in the auction (to someone else) that she would probably accept an offer of over £10....

She also gave me a lottle set of 7x21 for free!!..

The wife is getting a bit miffed now, she's talking me into selling my 8" Orion reflector as it's taking up too much room but with the bins i've bought of late, they'll end up taking up more room !!!!!

there's three more sets to add to the pile!!

Well, i'm going out shortly to have a look through my new bins, I believe the sky is clear!

Cheers, John
