    Sold Swaro EL 10x42, basically new…

    I guess we're going public with this so I need to offer up my side.... I'm sorry you feel this way... I wasn't trying to be shady or unfair. The person who purchased, I started chatted with 2 days ago (before you messaged me and who I told you had reached out before you) messaged me back...

    Sold Swaro EL 10x42, basically new…

    Totally fair! I have been on multiple other forums under the same user name with 100% positive feedback. Mostly boat and motorcycle parts but have sold on archery talk as well. Recently sold a pair of Zeiss conquest HD off the forum just a bit ago. If there is anything I can do to help show...

    Sold Swaro EL 10x42, basically new…

    These are basically new…. Been out of the box but used in the house, at nearby parks for birding. There are no flaws I can find. Warranty card has note been filled out and is included. I’m the 2nd owner, with 1st owner purchasing 8/2019 from Swarovski for $3k so these are only a couple...

    Support group… I just can’t help myself!

    This is a really good point! The more I look through the EL’s and compare to the Kowa I just can’t tell enough difference to justify the cost delta. Don’t get me wrong the EL’s are nice, super nice! But like you they are more than my eyes need to do what I want.

    It seems my affliction to picking up glass is junior leagues compared to some :) I’m staying away from spotters and scopes!

    I texted a local guy about some SLC listed for sale. When he said they were sold I told him I’m glad as I would have bought them but now can’t :)

    4 bino and 4 tripods… you can setup a 360 view from a ridge and not have to move any glass :)

    Not using them on a tripod, just handheld. But as @Coop RentOutdoorGear.com mentioned there are multiple options for wrap around holders to allow tripod use.

    Support group… I just can’t help myself!

    Planning a trip to Alaska and decide I should get some decent glass to see whatever their is to see beyond what my crappy eyes pick up! Have fallen down the rabbit hole, hard, in the last couple months! Start thinking that a nice pair of maven c series would be nice. Well then read that $500...

    Bino upgrade recommendations

    Interesting…. I have been doing the same with my Kowa Genesis. I’m getting a really good look at the trees in the back yard of my neighbor across the street :) To the OP the Kowa’s are pretty nice glass. I just picked up a pair of swaro EL 10x42. I can detect some difference between the EL...

    New bino's recommendations for a non-hunter?

    Thanks everyone! I have some conquest HD coming as well as some Kowa genesis. Will sell whichever one is the lesser of the 2 to me.

    Lots of upgrading

    As others have said the zulu9’s seem to pop up for pretty reasonable prices and on sale from time to time. Maven’s not as much.
