James,
Forget about the series 500's.
In the cheaper range get GS. I believe the series 500's are Synta.
In the 2" range do not get Andrews brand. Good shop but terrible EP's. Even though they are GS they are the bottom level GS's.
In the 2" range get GS SuperView. The 30mm is very good and instead of forking out a huge amount for the SuperView 15mm get the 2" 2x Barlow for $79. It will make your 2" 30mm into a 15mm and it will take any 1.25" EP's you get.
With the one 2" Barlow you will only need a few EP's.
