Up for grabs are the following:

Pentax 10.5mm XL, comes with box and caps. Excellent condition optically and cosmetically. (or swap for a longer focal ep, 21mm or more) SOLD!

Vixen LVW 8mm, comes with caps and box. Excellent condition optically and cosmetically.(or swap for a longer focal ep, 21mm or more)

I am only selling these to raise funds for my binoviewer purchase. I have a Denk standard on the way and need to raise funds for some multiple EP's. I am guessing these would be too much mag for the binoviewer.

There is no need to talk about the XL, as everyone knows how good they are, however the Vixen is no slouch either. I would rate it as 95% as good as the Pentax. The Vixen gives me a nice flat field with pinpoint stars in my 16" dob, making it ideal for any focal range scope really.

First in with $255 takes the Pentax, SOLD

While $200 gets you the Vixen!


If anyone has some longer focal ep's they would like to trade, pm me with the details. Otherwise I'm open to offers of hard cash!! :help:

Only the Vixen left now.

New price is $230 US, which is roughly $300 Australian.

I am selling it for $200+ post. This EP is mint unmarked cond, with original box and caps. I cant believe no-one is interested????? :shrug:

Mark, that is an absolute bargain for what is probably the best 8mm widefield EP around. If my EP case wasn't so well stocked already in the 6-10mm range I'd jump on it in a heartbeat.

I don’t like to spam anyone’s for sale thread. But I have the Vixen LVW 8 mm and it’s a super eyepiece:D . Highly recommended. And for the price above it’s a bargain.;)
Go for it.:thumbsup:

OK people.

Back off now, and let the eyepiece sell itself.

Yep. Sometimes things sell fast, sometimes slow.

A week is pretty fast. Glad it sold:)

Flood follows drought. The marketplace is a chaotic system. :)
