Don't get the NXTCO brand 10-30 x 60 binoculars off E-bay. They are crap. I got them for $50 just as a gamble (cheap GSO eyepieces are good, so cheap isn't always crap).
I wanted more aperture, but with such a crappy image and ruby coloured lenses (which apparently reflect long wavelengths only to hide chromatic abberation) it's not worth it.

Ok...I have decided......

I was too tempted to buy overseas so I did.......I bought a pair ok Nikon 12 x 50 action series...I have ordered them and should receive once payment has been approved within 5 days.

They were $99USD plus $47USD postage express with tracking

Total cost includding postage being $188 AUD not bad considering they are over $400 AUD everywhere here.

Nikon 12 x 50
