Orion Deepview 2" 35 mm eyepiece [SOLD]

SOLD
I have an Orion Deepview 2" 35 mm eyepiece for sale, like new in box with caps. It is a plossl style, but has a generous field of view (56 degrees). It is also nice and light. Cost is $75 plus postage. Here is the blurb from Orion:

Assuming that you don’t subscribe to the misconception that strong magnification gives better views of deep-sky objects such as nebulas, galaxies, and sprawling star clusters, then our new DeepView 2" eyepieces should excite you. Why? Because the brightest, sharpest, most pleasing images of deep-space objects are obtained with low power and a wide field of view. And DeepView 2" 35mm and 42mm eyepieces deliver just that.

They feature anodized aluminum housings and a 3-element lens design with multi-coatings for efficient light transmission. Eye relief is a long 20mm—a welcome spec for eyeglass wearers—and the rubber eyeguards fold down out of the way if desired. Apparent fields of view for the 35mm and 42mm models are a generous 56° and 52°, respectively. Delightfully free of pincushion distortion and chromatic aberration, DeepView eyepieces will impress even the seasoned deep-sky observer. The barrels are threaded to accept 2" light-pollution and other filters.
