I have a Bushnell that's pretty nice. It was a hundred and something bucks. For the price it was hard to beat. The optics aren't quite as nice as some of the European models, but that is to be expected. The only thing I didn't like was the little tripod it came with. I have a nice camera tripod, so I use it instead.

I have an extra Winchester 15X45X60 spotting scope in excellent condition with a sturdy metal carrying case and a table top tripod that I can sell you. It cost $240 new about two years ago. I'd sell it for $100 but you must pay actual shipping cost. Send me a e-mail if you're interested.
