first thing ill say is that if you feel that having your scope collimated before its shipped is a bonus, you should be buying a refractor.
anyway..
both premium versions come with the 10:1 crayford from what i can see.
so i guess it comes down to the ep's added.
andrews includes 4 gso plossls (25mm/15mm/9mm/6mm) and a 2" SV32
bintel includes 2 gso plossls (15mm/9mm) and a 26 FMC
although the FMC is a kellner design and probably wouldnt really be much use in a f/5 newt, also the SV would probably be of the same quality.
id really recommend asking them to swap for a 25mm plossl which is actually quite good
i found the 25 and 15mm plossls were very good to start off with, the 9mm was a bit average and the 6mm works pretty well as a dust cap i guess.
also im not sure if andrews still does it but i got a pair of 10x20 bino's included with the dob which are actually pretty good.
but really when it all comes down to it they are both guan sheng dobs from the same factory, with the guys from bintel pulling it out of the box, checking it out, collimating it and putting it back in the box. (you WILL still need to collimate when you get the scope)
i've dealt both with andrews and bintel, both were very good to deal with.
