Optics Planet almost always have a great selection of Ex Demo, Open Box and other almost new binoculars for sale on their website, which they offer at greatly reduced prices and are always worth checking out.
Currently and when I last checked, they have a whole selection of Leica Ultravid and Trinovid's as well as Swarovski, Zeiss Victory and Conquests, Canon Image Stabilized and Nikon binoculars, but obviously this changes frequently:
The UK or Europe
I review A LOT of binoculars. The majority of which are sent to me by the manufacturers or distributors and then go back after I have finished testing them. However, there are some that don't and then there are also others that I actually buy with my own money in order to review.
To help recoup some of the costs of running the site, pay for the equipment I need (camera, computer etc.) and because my office is starting to get pretty crowded, from time-to-time, I list a selection for sale as ex-demo or probably better described as ex-sample binoculars.
Current Goal:
I am busy saving up for a new camera that will be used for taking all the product images that you see on all the reviews on this site as well as for shooting the videos on BBR's YouTube Channel. The one that I have has served me well, but unlike binoculars, electronic devices like cameras do not last for ever and as such the one I have is now well past what is currently required (I need to shoot video in 4K!). So the money I make from the sale of any of the binoculars below will go directly towards a brand new camera.
Every binocular that I review is brand new and out of the box when I get it. I then use them for a few weeks and am always very careful to look after them as best I can.... none of my tests involve testing just how tough or water proof they actually are!
So all the binoculars listed here are almost new and have been carefully looked after. All are put back in their original box and packaging after the review. If any binocular has any marks or other issues, I will highlight it in the description.

Now available - I have the test sample and winner of Best Birding Binocular 2016/17, these cracking Eschenbach Trophy D 8x42 ED binoculars.
Incredible View: Scoring a mega impressive 9/10, the Eschenbach Trophy D ED ranks up there with the very best I have tested in terms of the view you are presented with when looking through them. Apart for their obvious expertise in their design and manufacture, this is achieved by incorporating the highest quality glass and coatings into their design which includes:
ED Glass Lenses, Fully Multi-Coated Optics, BaK-4 Roof Prisms that are both Phase Corrected and with the highest rated Dielectric Mirror Coatings
Wide Field of View: At 408ft wide at 1,000 yards away, these Eschenbach Binoculars are once again up there with the very best 8x binoculars and which is why for many uses, but especially birding and wildlife observation they really excel.
Note: The model that I am selling is the exact one that I used to test for the review that I wrote on them. They arrived as brand new and out of the box. As with all my reviews, I used them for a few weeks treating them very carefully. Afterwards they were replaced in the original box, along with the their carry case and neck strap and all other accessories. I would describe their condition as being as good as new.

Premium German Quality at a Reasonable Price
Made in Germany to the highest standards, there is no mistaking that the 8x42 Eschenbach Trophy D ED is a quality optical instrument. But what also really impressed me about them was whilst you would never call them cheap, these Mid-High End binoculars have a RRP of $584 / £359 and currently retial for around: $443 / £341 (On Amazon), which is ALOT less than you can expect to pay for many other top of the range premium brands:

With the Viper HD, Vortex have taken what already was an award-winning binocular and have added High Density (HD) extra-low dispersion glass to it.
Vortex's XP engineering anchors internal prisms in place and improves the Viper's ability to withstand rough use. Protected with rubber armouring, waterproofing, fog proofing, the Viper HD is certain to perform for generations.
With these added high-performance additions, the already bright, rugged and lightweight binocular is defiantly one of the very best in it's class.

More than simple cosmetic changes, the new version of the already excellent Endeavor ED binocular from Vanguard takes this instrument up to another level:
Whilst the original Endeavor used ED (Extra-Low Dispersion) Glass in their lenses, the major improvement to the Endeavor ED II is the inclusion of the much higher specification HOYA ED Glass Made in Japan that delivers an even sharper, higher resolution image.
This along with a number of other outstanding features including a fully waterproof and lightweight magnesium alloy frame, fully multi-coated optics and phase corrected BaK-4 roof prisms mean that these binoculars were well deserving of their award as the Best Wildlife Observation Binocular in 2014.

Winner of the award as the Best Safari & Travel Binocular 2015 these mid-sized Minox binoculars are just about as good as it gets:
Completely designed and manufactured in Germany to the highest standards, they use slightly larger than standard 33mm objective lenses (for a mid sized bin), which allow more light in for a better quality and brighter image (especially in bad light conditions), without making any noticeable difference to their size or weight.
They also feature ED glass in the lenses, fully multi-coated optics BaK-4 roof prisms that have been phase corrected.

The Carson 10x42 3D Series binocular has a tough but very lightweight and waterproof body that protects some really high quality optical components including the use of ED glass elements in the lenses and phase-coated BaK-4 roof prisms that produce a bright and high quality image.
Included extras like the binocular harness and the fantastic wrap around BinoArmor Deluxe carry case add extra value to this already excellent pair of optics and also make them ideal for tracking wildlife in all weather conditions and through difficult terrain.
