eBay find - 10 x 80 binoculars

eBay seems to have a mixed reputation as far as collectors are concerned.

As a collector who has only ever bought off eBay (not much choice to buy elsewhere when living in Hong Kong) I would like to share some of my eBay sourced binocular collection with members.

There is some worming on the green felt padding and some paint missing in places, but the paintwork appears to be original.
