Anyone have any experience with these binocs?? I found them for $209, free shipping and have read a ton of great reviews, not to mention top notch customer service/warranty. Seems like a good deal considering the majority of places carry them for $229 and up. Thoughts?

IMO, you cannot go wrong with Vortex optics. I should have a set of these in my hands before long and could speak more to their specific quality. But I have looked through the 10x42 version and they were great glasses. I also have a Vortex scope and it is very well made. Good buy.

I just bought a pair of 10x42 Diamondbacks and I love them. $209.00 is a good price.

Damn, you guys just love spending my money don't ya, haha... No BS, at least 100 reviews read, and not one bad word yet. Seems like they're comparable to a $400+ set of eyes eh?

I found the same thing. No matter how many reviews I read I couldn't find a bad one.

Flute...I ended up ordering the 10X42's for the same price. Excited to get them in my hands in a few days.
