  • thanks OP

      I SEE what the OP did there….

  • +1

    How much are they normally?

    • +6

      They were 29.99. I checked dicksmith's cached pages.

      • +1

        how did you do that?

        • +9

          Type in DIGITOR 10 x 50 Binocular in Google

          go 4 down to the dicksmith listing. On the right hand side of the listing hover your cursor on the right facing arrow. The cached page will be displayed as a preview on the right.

    Are these the same ones being flogged on eBay?

    I might go for the Click and Collect on a couple at my local store as well.
    EDIT: sigh They only have the one.

    • +1

      Looks the same to me. At this price, they will just sit in the glovebox.I got a pair and was just about to post it.

  • +1

    Thanks OP. This will make a great b'day pressy.

  • +2

    what are the uses besides spying neighbours

    • -1

      Star gazing

      • -5

        Its a Binocular, not a telescope.. Didn't think focus lengths would be long enough.

        • +1

          You can see a lot more than you can with your eye, my binos I can see craters in the moon.

        • +2

          Binoculars ARE telescopes — a pair of them.

        • 10 x 50 is technically enough to be useful for stargazing. For $50 you can do much better [1], but if your budget is only $10….

    Thanks theearth. I really dont know what I am going to use this for but I couldnt resist for some reason.

    Nice! Haven't had a set of binoculars since I was a kid!

    Gonna grab one of these and a hair dryer and hang out of my cars window on the main road, cheers

    "Poor quality chinese crap. Returned to Dick Smiths after few days of using. For a bit more money you can find a much better alternative."
    I saw some 10x50 binoculars in The Reject Shop recently for around the same price… tried them in shop and they were useless… blurry. Not even good enough for a kids toy.
    Has anyone tried these? Digitor is a generic brand name used by DSE afaik?
    You can get decent 10x50 for around $50. I found a Bushmaster branded set a couple of years ago for $50 and they are very sharp and clear.

    • +3

      its $10

      i have an awesome pentax and nikon set but i wouldnt leave them in the car

      you never know when you get the urge…

    • +3

      Why people like to associate "Chinese" to "Crap"?! Don't you think it is sort of bias? or racist?

      Yes with a little bit more, you can get a better one, from the reject shop, and it is also Made in China by Chinese. And also your shirt, your digital camera, iPhone, and iPad if you have one, are all Made in China by Chinese.

      • +4

        its a throwaway line, i get it, dont take it to heart

        put it this way… cisco routers, laptops, iphones, ipads, all kinds of tablets that cant be made anywhere else are made in china

        they also make everything you see in $2 reject shops

        if china didnt supply stuff to australia, we'd have nothing to buy! literally… its not even funny, it just is

        • +7

          Chill people, here's another throw away line.

          God created Earth. Everything else is made in China

        • That's how the economics are. We pay you to do something. You don't eat crap man. Be cool.

      • -2

        You're generalising it. The statement "Poor quality chinese crap" refers to a particular quality of Chinese goods, the lowest quality. In the mind of the reviewer this might very well be discretely worse than normal Chinese quality. And it's necessary to specify Chinese because for example the lowest Chinese quality may be significantly lower than the lowest Swiss quality.

    • +1

      You should read the cons.. Judging by his con, he paid more then $10.. I think he implied $10 wasn't bad of a price for them… Lol.. Just saying!
      "Consider the product quality, these binoculars should cost no more than $10"

    • +2

      That review is rubbish.

      I got a pair today and I can vouch for them being on par with stuff that costs 10 times as much at least. There's no blurriness whatsoever.

      • Thanks for the heads up Amar… we had nothing definite to go on. Those reports on product review were a bit sus.

  • +1

    $10 cant go wrong

    • -1

      $10 for a paperweight? :-)

      • +6

        Or remove the lenses, make some glasses and you can look like the proclaimers.

  • weird, i got to the end of the click and collect system..

    1 x DIGITOR 10 x 50 Binocular - $10.00
    Item Subtotal $10.00

    Collection Fee $0.00

          weird-oes… :)

  • +2

    I have no need for a pair of binoculars, but for $10 why the hell not.

    ^^^ the thinking for most of my ozb purchases actually :\

  • reserved one.. dont really need, but i guess it can be handy to own.

  • +2

    Good for a day at the races.
    Watching surfers at the beach…or swimmers LOL.
    Pretty much all outdoor sporting activities they can come in handy.

    I even use mine at night to look up at the sky.

  • +1

    Thanks OP. Have no real need for them, but hey, they're $10. Can't really go wrong with that.

  • I'm gonna grab two binoculars

    Only got $20 in my pocket

    I’m, I’m, I’m hunting

    Looking for a reason to buy these

    Ozbargain is Mod: Foul Language awesome

  • All gone in Brisbane area

    • +2

      Thus saddling Brisbane with the unenviable title of "Pervert capital of Australia".

      Disclosure: I'm from Brisbane but despite my comments here mainly having to do with condoms, adult nappies, and vaginal moisturiser, not a pervert.

      • If anyone needs a pair in South Brisbane let me know.

        I have a click and collect order at Sunnybank which I no longer need.

      • The vaginal moisturiser was awesome. I use mine all the time.

  • +1

    "studying nature"

    Yup ;)

  • +1

    I like using the other end and creating my own Lilliputian world.

  • Just grabbed one from dse garden city in brissie, pretty decent toy for $10.

  • Lordy, really wanted one.

    Can't seem to find a store where its available. Any store in sydney ==

  • why is it everywhere I check is sold out? :( I really wanted a pair….

  • Picked up my pair this morning, they seem half decent. No idea what I'll use them for, but tgey are good value! .. does that mean I've passed the first stage of being an OzBargainer? :)

  • I placed my order at the Springvale store. They said they never received any click and collect orders. So when I went to the store they were just sitting on the shelf. There was 1 left when I left the store in the morning.

  • Placed a click and collect order for these yesterday at Springvale store, was phoned by store today and told they are out of stock! Maybe they should change it from "click and collect" to "click and forget"…not a happy customer.

    • yes same happened to me..they said the click and collect order didn't come..should be complaining to dick smith HO about this..not sure if they will do anything..

  • Got a pair this morning. Yet to try them though..

  • Got a pair this arvo. They are awesome.

    • where are you guys getting them from? i checked online and its out of stock everywhere :(

      • Got mine from wagga wagga. One pair left on the shelf when i was there.

      • where are you located?

  • Just came home from picking a pair up a Macarthur Square In Campbelltown, I'd say pretty decent for $10, it's years since I had a pair of binoculars.

  • -1

    4 left at Marion store in Adelaide as of today 3.30pm. I decided against buying one as the RRP was 19.95 so I didn't think it was a huge bargain and would prefer to buy a better quality one. But as others have mentioned for $10 bucks you can't go wrong!

    • Edit (sorry thought you were referring to the better ones)

  • no stock in sydney, can't find any

  • if anyone has surplus they dont need in sydney, would be much appreciated if I could buy it off you!

  • +1

    Just got one from chullora. They still had 6 pieces left.

    I suggest you call up some stores, because on their website it said out of stock but when i called them, they still had plenty.

  • +1

    Picked mine up this arvo, superb quality for $10!

  • -2

    The picture is misleading. The photo on the screen is the other deal for 10 dollars which is expired everywhere.

    • what do you mean? the photo is a link to the actual product, 10x50 big binoculars(OP has mentioned 2 products in the description, the second is 10x25 compact) and it is still available in some places(e.g. hurstville nsw according to the "stock checker") It's not OP's fault if the item has been ozbargained

  • +1

    Like i said, there were quite a few stores who had it (like 3pm today) when i called them up even though the website said out of stock.

    • -1

      that is because they dont want to sell at this price, so website displays zero stock

      • +1

        Nonsense, it's a clearance item. They want to get rid of it.

  • Nothing left in East / South East of Melbourne. I called few stores and they all have no stocks. The store personnal said that their system only shows stocks in far places from Mel in Vic.

  • Picked up the last one from North Sydney - thanks OP

    • I just picked up one from North Sydney half an hour ago.

  • +3

    Got mine today, better than I expected. Good quality pervoculars. Thanks.

  • +4

    Just gave it a go to gaze at stars. It's definitely better than I expected. The box itself looked very cheap, but the quality of the items inside were quite good for the money.

    • +2

      i'd have to agree with this

      the optical quality is comparable to a $100 set of binoculars

      no complaints at all

      the box and packaging and pouch is a bit meh but it does do 10x quite damn well

  • I am glad some of my fellow Ozbargainers scored this bargain.
    But you wouldn't believe it that i missed out…hahaha
    I placed a click and collect order and that store said they never received click and collect order from me. so they sold the last one yesterday morning. well…next time….hahaha
    Have a good night all

    • the dse sales guy said to me "oh just the one?"

      and i go "yeah? why would i want more?"

      he goes people have been buying 2, 3 up to 8 at a time lol

      • We only have two eyes, but you can never have too many binoculars.

      • I think you found where broaden lives..

        • +1

          Is that a wide version of Broden?

    • Hopefully those that were picking up 8 at a time might help you out.

  • I ordered the smaller 10x25 for post, and the 10x50 for pickup.
    Got sent two 10x25 in the mail and no contact about the 10x50.

    Awwww :(

  • Great for the car glovebox! Bargain

  • Thanks for this, picked up the last set at all the DSE's anywhere around here. For $10 they're much better quality than I expected.

  • Man alive, are these some good Binocs for 10 bucks.

    I just "field-tested" these on a hill overlooking the Perth CBD at a distance of about 6km. I could damn near make-out street signs a kilometre away. There's no lens glare, no blurriness, the picture clarity is superb regardless of whether you're looking at something 5 metres away or off in the distance, they're incredibly easy to focus (virtually idiot-proof in that respect) and they're of pretty solid construction too. I'd wager they could take some punishment.

    The carry case/sling is not too shabby; it does its job and you can wear it around your shoulder/neck without issue.

    I'm glad I picked these up; last one in the store too.
