Hi All,
I hope it’s ok to ask on here but I was wondering if anyone knew of another forum site that had a good binoculars classifieds section. I am in the market for some new glass but would much rather buy secound hand then new. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!! |

Quote HistoryYeah, they have some good stuff. Be aware you need 50 posts there to use their EE. I picked up a nice set of vortex in excellent shape for 40% off what Cabela’s wanted. Craigslist. |

I wait on sales. Europtic, Natchez, or Midway. They also have demos and open box.
Much safer and warranty. |

Thanks for the feedback!!
Yeah the EE on this site is fairly limited for bino’s especially for higher end ones. I just had a look at Rockslide and it looks great but the 50 post minimum is a bummer. After some google searching I randomly came across https://www.birdforum.net and that by far seems like my best option. I know nothing about birding nor did I even have a clue that it was such a big deal to the point where there is an entire forum with ALOT of traffic so there seems to a very large classified section with high end bino’s up for sale on that forum. |

I think the guys on rokslide mentioned that birdy forum too as a source.

Pretty much every older person garage sale or estate sale.
I think every older guy had at least a couple sets of binoc's. I'm down to 3-4 depending on how many I can find at any one time.  These I can't lose, they are to damn big.  Attached File Attached FileGreat for glassing deer at dusk though. |

I have two steiners I bought years ago on sierra.com. Great pricing (like 250 for 8x40s). They may still carry some.
