If you are looking for an alpha brand compact Uttings have the Nikon HG L 8x20 for £299.00 which seems to be the lowest for these just now :

Old style Leica Trinovids on sale at Viking http://www.vikingopticalcentres.co.uk/binoculars/by-type/full-size?manufacturer=52 at £699 8x42 and £749 10x42.
Presumably clearing these out before the revamped Trinovids arrive. Looks the battle will really be on against the Zeiss Conquests in this part of the market.

Also at Cley : http://www.cleyspy.co.uk/binoculars-and-monoculars.html?manufacturer=25, and you can try before you buy.

You can also try them at Viking (in Halesworth), where they have an albeit small showroom - at least if it hasn't changed since I was there last.
Now these you really should buy and use as Christmas tree decorations next year - refractor telescope, was £12.99 now 10p :

Castle Cameras, has a sale on a variety of binoculars until 2nd January. I noticed that the 8x32 Opticron Verano was listed at £299 (£100 off), but Opticron is offering £50 cashback until March 2016 on the Verano range. That brings the overall price down to £249 with the refund, so I bought one. The 8x42 is the same price too.

I wanted to check my compatibility with Leica bins because of their apparently short specified eye relief. i contacted Bakers in Lewes, Sussex. They have one bin on sale before no longer being a Leica dealer. They said it was an ultravid 10x42 and, if I recall correctly, it was about £800.
Please call them first to check I have the right information. 01273 476479

A nice cheap 8x32ba trinny for somebody, albeit with some cosmetic damage: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Leica-8x32-BA-Used-/252394059163?hash=item3ac3dbb59b:g:2wAAAOSwXSJXPDLY I have no affiliation with the seller btw.

Several retailers, including Cley Spy, have had the Kowa Genesis 8x33 on sale at just under £500 for several months (and some have sold out). Now Clifton Cameras is selling the Kowa Genesis 10x33 for £549. Other retailers are charging between £800-£900.
Cheaper than the Zeiss Conquest 10x32s they are well worth the money I think.
