Exit pupil aside (depending on your eye physiology 7mm is justifiable at 24 y.o. btw) I'd stay away from roof prism binos at this price point and insist on full multicoatings (FMC). The Meades are only FC which is not good enough unless you are really going for cheap cheap (eg celestron upclose ~$60). OTOH, the Orion is an FMC porro prism bino so probably well worth the extra cost. As others have already advised I'd look into what AOE has on offer once their website is back online. I found them great to deal with and all their binos are great value and support is excellent.
