If you take your time and pay attention to what you are doing then I suggest E-Bay. I bought a brand new pair of Zeiss binoculars yesterday for $375. The cheapest I could find a used set anywhere was $450. And the cheapest new price I could find was $549. Just do not get in a hurry, there are some unbelievable deals on E-Bay.
I have been shopping for about 2 weeks when I found them. Tom.
There are quite a few things that I would buy on eBay. High quality optics is not one of them.
Why not?? As long as you do your research. Most of the companies on E-Bay are very reputable. And there is no better insurance in the industry than PayPal. PalPal is much safer than just using your regular credit card and ordering from a mail house. So I am not sure why you say that??
I have bought several high end bino's and scopes on E-Bay. As well as selling several with no problem what so ever. I realize E-Bay is anti-gun. But who isn't?? Most of us receive shipments through UPS and the US Mail every day,and they are about as anti-gun as you can get!! Tom.
