You have not looked very hard ! Two 6x42 swarovski's where on E-*ay last week, I bought one for £250+ p&p arrived today and put on my .22rf tonight.
The other went for £255 !
Try looking how bright a 6x42 Swaro is compaied to the Nikon then see if they are good for the price ? Used to have a pair of Nikon bino's they where light weight, but poor focus, very poor colour definition and would rate a 3/10
There a Swarovski 6x42 on the S*alking D*rectory £220 _p&P
