I would love to have the Swaro stay on case, but hard to see $300 plus for fabric. I’ve looked at phone skope, outdoor vision and marsupial gear, but haven’t found what I want. Any suggestions? I might would pay 200 for the Swaro one but that’s pushing it. Thanks in advance.

The Swarovski case was the only I found for my STX 65mm spotter but as always with Swarovski it is a nice case except for the price...

Consider your age and how much you want to save. You can look at used sporting goods sites and eBay, maybe even a garage sale, but at this point in my life, I get what I want because I don’t know if I will live long enough to find the cheap way to what I want now.
I just bought the ATX 95 with case and window mount. It wasn’t cheap, but I can go get it and use it, the sting of the cost is over…

I’ve seen some of the aftermarket cases for Swaro spotters and they are all concessions in looks, quality, protection and fit. I have the stay on case for mine and it’s worth every penny I paid for it imho.

I agree the price is ridiculous , but I also ended up getting the Swaro stay on case. It fits like a literal glove.

Thanks guys. I had a sneaky suspicion that the swaro case was the best. I may save up and get one.

I ended up with an Outdoor Visions case for my ATS. Does what it's supposed to and for $80 instead of $300.

It's now $300 for a ATS case?!!! I found mine on new on ebay, but that was 10+ years ago..........

I don't think you will find one of similar quality and fit as the Swaro case. I had the same issue a while back when I bought my spotting scope. I got lucky with a "Search All Craigslist" and found someone who was willing to ship to me.
I just shared my secret weapon - go forth and prosper!
