I never would have bought these binos if...

It was at Primex Casino ( agricultural show) ..these binoculars were on a table at I think $30 ..could have been $20..with various tools odds and ends ( and a neat back scratcher that in hospital is worth twice its weight in gold)...so I pick them up and have a peek around bit hard to use but the view was ok and at $30 perfect to hang on the back of the door to grab easily for a bird or plane...however if I had taken the time to read that they were 20 x magnification I would not have bought them believing like everyone 10 x is as high as you should go...glad I missed 20x as these have turned out a little gem for astro...eye relief ..whats that? But when in position the views are excellent.
I guess the market rejected them and the vendor got them via a liquidation type sale ..but I wish I had bought the six that were there...only got them out now to sit in the Sun and watch some birds but so glad I did not notice they were 20x magnification.
