A couple guys on CloudyNights have reported glare issues with the new 5mm B/TMBs, similar to what the 4, 6 & 9 had with the old retaining rings. These owners are seeing the problem with the 'grooved' retaining ring (odd because this was the 'fix' for the other eyepieces). Supposedly the 5mm B/TMBs are supposed to have a bead-blasted retaining ring. You might want to call ahead and make sure you're getting one with the bead-blasted ring.
