I'd never spend more than a few hundred on binoculars.. yes they're a great and invaluable tool, but any more than that and I'd feel the money is more value put towards a better telescope, better eyepieces etc.
Once you have a telescope, you'll use it far more than your binoculars.
If you plan to use the binos for terrestrial use (birdwatching etc), then maybe it's worth spending a little more on a good quality pair.
