I just called Maven. They verified that they will take stock item binoculars back for a full refund within 2weeks if you are not happy. They also stated that if you noted "demo program" on your order they would include a return shipping label.

They asked me which optic I was interested in. I told him the 8x30's but I was going to try the 8x42's because of the eyeglasses/short eye relief. The fellow I was speaking with said that he wore eyeglasses and he had no problems using the B3's - something about the eyecup design....

So I guess I have nothing to lose, full refund if I don't like them, another eyeglass wearer says they work fine w/ glasses. I'll order some B3's and see how they do.
