Hi,
Regretfully, I am selling my two superb Vixen wide-angle eyepieces.
They are in excellent condition with original packaging (but {superior} aftermarket end caps).

These eyepieces continually receive rave reviews, are easy to use, and are compared favourably to Televue and Pentax eyepieces of similar focal lengths. [For example see on IIS: http://www.iceinspace.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=6588

The only reason I am selling them is because I have too many eyepieces with similar magnification and Field of View, so I simply cannot justify keeping them all, and so I have decided to stay with the Panoptics, and pass these on to where they will get more use.

I am offering these for sale at $186 (each) pick up NSW Central Coast
(or add $13 for Registered/Insured/Australia wide postage)
OR BOTH for $349.


EDIT:
LVW17mm is SOLD
LVW22mm is at SOLD
