SOLD: Vixen LVW 3.5mm
8 months old Vixen LVW 3.5mm is up for sale. This is a wonderful high-magnification eyepiece which I decided to sell because of the longer focal length of my new telescope.
It gave me breathtaking planetary views in 8" F/6 reflector on good nights. Good edge sharpness and colour, excellent contrast and very comfortable 20mm eye relief. Would also work well in a shorter reflector.
Here is a review of 8mm LVW:

There are some minor cosmetic scratches on the barrel, optical surfaces are as new.
Price reduced to clear: $200 (postage included) or pick up in Melbourne.
