EDIT:

In the US they have been reduced by $40, which drops the price from $310 to $270 (a reduction of 12.9%).

Bintel's reduction of A$30 drops the price from A$479 to A$449 (a reduction of 6.3%).

Hmmm...

Yep - one of the upsides you can get away with when you are a business that holds a monopoly over the market (i.e. 'us') in being the sole Australian vendor of Televue

I think the real question isn't so much debating whether the Nagler T6 eyepiece is any good etc - as clearly they are an excellent eyepice design etc.

The real question is why would anyone buy a genuine Televue T6 Nagler anymore when Explore Scientific produce a range of clones which optically are identical (as best as I have ever been able to garner) and yet at less than half the price - with or without any Televue sale price
