Burgess has the 5mm eyepieces with the correct retaining ring in stock. Burgess has asked Astronomics and High Point Scientific to stop selling the 5mm until they can ship the good ones to them. Apparently the problem was only with a portion of the new eyepieces. Anyone who got a bad one (from any dealer) is being asked to return it directly to Burgess for replacement. Any ordered from here on will have the correct ring. All this according to someone who says he just spoke with Bill Burgess.
