Free to a newbie to the hobby whom doesn't have a scope or binoculars. The catch is that you take care of this package and when you are done and you move on to bigger and better things, you pass it on to a newbie..free of charge. Please only absolute newbie to ask for this. Postage at my expense.

Australian Geographic - Discover The Night Sky Book
Discover the Night Sky comes with everything you need to get started watching the night sky. Inside you will find a planisphere showing which stars are visible for every night of the year and two books, Mapping the Skies and the Stars Guide.
Mapping the Skies shows maps of the major constellations for each month of the year.
The Stars Guide is a complete guide to understanding the night sky constellations.
This facinating book also includes a pocket-sized red light torch, so you can see what you are reading without losing your night vision - an essential concern of stargazers!

Very nice Hans , I only wish now that someone would have given an offer like this 25 years ago .
It would have saved me over a years mowing lawns and washing cars ,, etc . etc ..... . as a young , poor aspiring astronomer ..
Go for this .

I know of one newbie that would love them! He has been asking for some binos for awhile now, only catch from my end is his 5 years old. So the bit about moving them on to someone else for free might take a while. I could send him over to get them?
Hi Hans
I'm as new as they come (Registered 2 mins ago) and would love the opportunity to look after these for a while for you, before passing them on to another newbie, as you suggest.
Are they still available?
Thanks in advance
Whoever ends up using these binoculars will not be disappointed. I tried out a sample of this brand a week ago and am now tempted to get a pair to replace my old 7x50's.
A very generous offer Hans. A gift that keeps on giving.
To all the expressed an interest and sent PM's there was a few worthy newbies so the decision wasn't easy but I have decided on a recipient and have PM'd them, so if you didn't get a message you missed out...very sorry about that.
