Stephen b Report post Posted August 19, 2015 This is my first post, and I apologize for that. Hate to be "that guy". But, so it goes. I had a friend suggest that I post these here because a number of people here use 12x and 15x glass. And I thought I would also. But I live in the brushy side of the PNW, and in the future I see myself using my 10x ( 8x at times) and a spotter combo more. So, I have decided to sell these. They are really awesome for open country- as many here know. Even though this is my first post here, I have bought and sold a # of items before on other forums, and have a good reputation for treating people right. Forums include 24 Hour Campfire ( user name llama2 there); Rokslide; Birdforum, Kifaru; Archerytalk. User name on those is like here- Stephen b. Well enough with the intro; these are what I am selling: Cabelas ( Meopta made) Instinct Euro HD 12x50 binocular. These are new in box, and are in brand New superb condition. I am the original owner. They come with all original parts. I have only looked at these at my house and on back deck. I am only selling them because I also bought a 10x42 Swarovski SLC HD binocular, and have decided as nice as these are I really do not need both. BTW- regarding the quality of the Euro HD 12x50's; I spent 3-4 days in all sorts of lighting conditions comparing them to Swarovski 12x50 SV's. And it was certainly like splitting hairs to see much if any difference between them. The Swaro's had a slightly bigger FOV, and maybe a touch brighter. As far as resolution of fine details they both were equal. ( NOW $950 TYD). *** Selling for $975 ( $955 plus $20 for shipping costs) TYD in Cont. US *** will accept PayPal if desired, but please either add the 3% fees or use personal option. Also will accept other methods that you desire. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
