Minox makes a dandy, I'd have to look up the model.  Cameraland carries them and often has a store demo scope on sale for a great price.

I have no idea how it stacks up to the Viper.

What's the price on the new, mini Vortex razor spotter?  Curious how it will compare to my ed50.

Shipped to your door, the ed50 will cost you $625, and the ed65 will be $995.  Those are the prices I was quoted from an authorized dealer.

$649 NIB.  I've used these a lot and they are excellent scopes.  Probably a little heavier than the Nikon.

There are lots of high quality 62-65mm scopes. Nikon has almost has a monopoly on high quality 50s.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

SHUT THE FRONT DOOR!!!! Those are outstanding prices.  I agree right now the Nikon ED50 is the premier mini spotter.  Where is this dealer at? The cheapest I found for the 50mm was $829 and for the 65mm ED was $1499.

JLS how much is the eyepiece for that one?

Looks like $199 NIB or $119 for demo.  I bought a demo scope and it was like new condition.
