A bit dear but looks effective.

Not sure what the problem is. The link works for me both from my work computer and now from my home computer.

I get the same error message.

The link in your post redirects to:
www.teleskop-express.de/shop/product_info.php/language/en/info/p641_Off-Axis-Guider---nur-9mm-Baulaenge---T2-Anschluss---fuer-CCD.html (http://www.teleskop-express.de/shop/product_info.php/language/en/info/p641_Off-Axis-Guider---nur-9mm-Baulaenge---T2-Anschluss---fuer-CCD.html)
with http:// in the front, of course.

even the base URL:
http://www.teleskop-express.de
gives the error

Interesting. All of your links work for me. It's a store in Germany. I connect with bigpond at work and at home and both worked. Maybe some ISPs block the site?
Here is a pic at least of the guider.

Verboten!!!!!!

It looks good alright, and if I am not mistaken it is either a skinnied-out Celestron OAG or an addition to the Celestron that they offer as well. It keeps the rear focus issues to a bare minimum.

Looks like a guide scope ring to me!!!
How does it work???
:P

The blurb says it is only 9mm thick. The downside is euro 248 +shipping.
