I got some Vortex diamondback 8x42s that I am super happy with. Way better than my last set from REI. Lifetime warranty too, it's a pretty good bang for the buck. PM me for info on where I got them, $200 even shipped to the door.

I go to the pawn shops in the better parts of town and see what has shown up. Picked up a pair of Redfield Rebel in 10x42 for $50 out the door with the case. Yes Pawn shops are the scourge of poor people, but sometimes you find some good things cheap.

The Kruger Backcountry are very good for the money. Some professionals have said the 10x50's compare to the $1000 price range.
