There is a difference amongst the BVs... the baader maxbright have a special dielectric coating , and also a larger clear aperture ...

Orly, did you understand what Edz said? Anyway his last statement hinted and sums it up well...as I had said, a better quality binoviewer wouldn't have that issue you have.

Furthermore, I would generally not buy a binoviewer or binocular as a used item from overseas buyer unless I am absolutely sure that person is honest and reliable, regardless of his price. For such items, I usually prefer to buy locally only upon passing my inspection. My alignment standard and tolerance is very precise, and I have very specific inspection tests on these items before I buy them. People who buy binos from me knows my binos have 100% spot-on alignment and collimation.

It's fine that you declined my offer to check yours. Anyway I hope you have resolve your problem.
