Problem on puchasing binoculars!

Dear all,
Hi! I am a new birdwatcher. I want to buy a binocular
(the model is Olympus 10x42 EXUP) I wonder if any experience birder can tell me the price and where I can  buy it. (I check the price in a famous MONG KOK camera shop and they told me the price is $1980. Is is too expensive? Can anyone tell me any reliable camera shop name? Many thanks.

Hi,
 
I also bought the same model in Mong Kok at $1650.
It is the shop that is next to 泉章居。
