Price

Spend the $ you will be happy!
Shipping
Free, they even sent me a shipping label for fedex.

Unless you are willing to pay 2500 for an 34alpha34 binocular then this is the next best purchase
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Even then most people probably couldnt tell the difference between the razor hd 8x42 and the 34alpha34 binocular
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
If youre looking for the superior optical resolution and quality in a very tough lightweight package then give the razor hd 8x42 a try
