You could call SWFA and describe them over the phone, as they will take trade-ins, eventually you will have to send it in to them for a price quote.
 
The model name should be on the left barrel of the binocular.

The Pentax Sp's are an excellent binocular in that price range, the bushnell Legends or their discontinued Discoverer series- which had a very respectable Fov  are also very good and won't break the bank. You would probably have to do a google search to locate some of the discoverers if still around but worth the money. I have not personally looked at the new Vortex line but have heard good things about them
