The 30mm ep was $129 @ myastroshop.com.au, and apparently available @ andrews for $99.

through the barlow, coma is fairly apparent, however the central area of the FOV is still quite sharp and a joy to use.
I tried the Andrews UW 30mm with a UO 2" ED barlow and the image was very bad. I recall someone liked the result of this EP with a GSO barlow. I wouldn't recommend a barlow based on my own experience.
