I'm not sure if it is ok to post this so if you need to delete it I understand.
Binoculars.com has this binocular on sale with aluminum case and free shipping for $239! -60% off
I have been doing some looking at giant binoculars and stumbled on their ad. They are way too heavy for my needs but thought someone might be interested.

Bought mine, about 3 months ago, at the same place when they were $199. Image is quite good up to about 60%-70% out then they start falling out of focus.
I'm using them on an Orion paragon xhd tripod and mount which is at about the limit but still quite steady.
Haven't checked the fov yet but I'll do that when I get the chance.

$199? Wow! I have noticed that from dealer to dealer most items are very similarly priced. I figured the prices were set by the supplier or something. In this instance all the other sites were at least $300 with the high being on Amazon for $650! That is a really big range. Obviously it pays to shop around.
