New covers for my old 8x42s

The objective lens covers for my old binoculars fit perfectly. Much more convenient than the old unattached covers-wish I'd got some years ago! Sizing is correct and they look nice & robust. Very well packaged & quick delivery. Very pleased with everything. Excellent service.

Good discount offered

Good discount offered, making buying direct comparable or better than other options. In stock, as you'd expect with a direct purchase and dispatched immediately so overall delivered in about 2 days from order. Can't fault the service.
