RE: Vortex vs Alpen
Check the specs - they may be the same piece, rebranded. If so, go with the longer warranty.
I bought a Vortex Viper 2-7x for my mountain rifle, & I've been well pleased with it.

RE: Vortex vs Alpen
not sure which optics you are looking at (bino's, spotter, or scope)....but i got the vortex diamondbacks at http://cameralandny2.reachlocal.net/for $129 and that is some great piece of Glass right there....warranty is killer as well

I have an Alpen 15-45x60 Spotting Scope and I love it, it's very clear and easy to use. I actually have a website that I sell Alpen optics from, this link should get you to the Alpen start page
