Title: The OPTIC DEAL now ready to go.
Post by: Terry Green on March 23, 2025, 01:38:54 PM
Those that posted on the Optic Deal thread that wanted in, I'm satisfied with the 8s and 10s that are available.

As many know, 10s are better for long distance, yet a little less steady freehand.

I used them freehand, yet also used the base of a window seal in a tower stand, the stairs, the cross bars, or mesquite branch to steady them while glassing to advise others from a center hub of a wagon wheel in TX. I have used binos for years, but I really like this monocular MUCH better.  I also used a tripod I brought to take pics of Sponsor items on a 2 second delay for clarity.  I had no idea how great that was on a few occasions at a hub to simply pick up and rotate down any sendero I wished to view. The tripod that comes with these are extremely short and more for a table top type viewing, yet are GREAT for low angle hero pics.

The 8s are better here in GA, or east, for most as we are more interested in finding the animal quick and don't need that much magnification of a 10 .  However, the 8s seem to be more limited, or 'out of stock' more often, but I'd be happy with either.

I'm going to take a chance that this will work out at a delivered price of $37.75 delivered to continental US and my packaging cost.

So, if you posted on the other thread, please order now so I can get these going.

You can pay via paypal to the addy of....

[email protected]

If you paypal, please post your original mag choice in the 'for comments'.  Yes, I have it on record on the other thread, but a double check is always best.

Also, you can pay via paypal without a paypal account.  I've never done it but there are directions on credit or debit card payments on paypal.

Or, send a check to....

Terry Green - 205 Victory Drive - Calhoun GA 30701

If you are going to send a check, please post here as such so I'll know to look out for it.

Thanks!

For those of you that didn't 'pre order' post, post on this thread if you would like to be considered if there are any left over and include mag choice.  Based on my tests here, either would work where long distance is in play. I'd rather have this monocular than my binos no matter 8 or 10 for what I'm using it for and if either were to get lost, stolen or destroyed during both travel or hunting.

Yes Sir!'

Here is a pic of one of the two I've been testing....

Also, I'm testing out the green hog light again tonight, AND there is an option I didn't realize when I ordered it. The light also comes with a 'switch' option for an upcharge.  I've seen these listed for HI dollar before.  I'm going to order another light with the switch option as see how it performs.  The light comes with a rechargeable battery and charger which I LOVE. Those cheap single AA batteries just don't cut it.  I've snuck up on many with that cheap light, but after sneaking up on them with PDKs slow glow stationary, I realized how much I needed a brighter green light.

More on that later....

I will send a check for one 8x, please.  Thanks for doing this, Terry!
UPDATE:  Terry, I paid through PayPal instead of sending a check for an 8X.  Let me know if it went through, as I am not real good at PayPal.  Thanks!

Do you need addresses for those using PayPal to send the mono's?
Title: Re: The OPTIC DEAL now ready to go.
Post by: Terry Green on March 24, 2025, 03:02:52 PM
JR, your address is on your paypal payment you sent me, as per the norm for everyone else.  If your paypal addy is correct, I don't need anything else.

Terry -

Just sent you $90 for 2 monoculars via Paypal.  10 x 50's.   The extra $$ should cover the difference in shipping to AK. 

Roman Gray

Paypal should have my address.  I put my phone # in the description in the paypal transaction.

Terry, I posted on the original thread that I would take 2, but did not specify which magnification. If available, I would like 2 of the 8X.

Will get a check in the mail tomorrow.

Thanks, Jeff

I’d be interested in one if any are still available.
First choice 8X, but 10x would be ok.

Everyone will get what they originally ordered.  That is, if they paid for it, which half have not so far. Kind of funny making demands when you haven't even paid.

I put a check, actually a cashier's check, in the mail Monday morning. I don't know what we can expect of the USPS. Sorry, never used pay pal. I could have paid with a card but that wasn't one of the choices. In any case watch for the check.

I didn’t get in on the survey topic but I'd be in for an 8 or 10 if there's any left when the dust clears.  Just PM me with any good news. 😀

Hi Terry. Sorry if you said this and I missed it: Will PayPal send out a shipping notice if that is the way we paid?

Thanks!
