Actually furthering your EP collection isn't a bad idea. For one you will know
your premium EP will work in a variety of focal lengths. And another it's 50%
of the optical train, I noticed a vast improvement in my views and enjoyment
when I put a tennis racket to the cheap EP's that came with my scope and
went and spent money on premium EP's. I still have my 8" which I brought
about 5-6 years ago. Went through aperture fever a couple of times. Now
I have most of the EP's I want. I'm now looking to build a bigger scope and
thats another satisfaction trip on it own. I think there is something to be
said about learning to see all you can with the aperture you have, there are
a lot of things you can see in a 10" and I'm sure you haven't seen a quarter
of them yet.
