Kowa 883 with zoom and fixed eye-piece (2 Viewers)

What would a Kowa 883 with zoom and fixed eye-piece be worth used? In a like new condition and with bag.
 
I've just been in this end of the market - buying.

One of my local dealers in the UK has one with the current 25-60 zoom eyepiece for £1,900.00 GBP. That's a dealer price, with some warranty, so I expect you'd have to work back from that, or take into account regional price variations, if any. By 'bag', I assume you mean stay-on case? Also, is it boxed and do you have the original receipt?

Not sure any fixed EP would add much value if you have the 25-60 zoom, because most Kowa 773/883 owners seem to think it negates the need for a fixed EP, but I might be wrong and someone else might chip in if you say which one it is?

If I don't get on with the Swarovski ATS 80HD I just bought, I might be in touch.

Yes stay-on-case was the word I was looking for, thank you! It's boxed and for sale at a dealer. How's the Swarovski?
