This is a Barska 10X50mm new. What is a good price at retail?

Big 5 Sporting Good Stores are always having sales on the Barska binoculars.

The 10x50's are ruby coated and should be avoided.

If you are wanting something inexpensive for stargazing please read this:NcSTAR Binoculars

Thanks for the input, folks. The price I actually saw is $14.99. However, I've taken your advice and decided to pass them by for a better binocular.
