Problem with buying high-mid range to high end eyepieces is that that's what they are...costly, and when you're on a bit of a budget, you have to go with what you can afford. That's why I suggested the kits....they have good quality eyepieces that you can get in a kit for less than their normal retail price...because they've been added to a kit. You usually get a barlow (x2 or x3) in a kit, plus some RGB or Wratten filters. You're still going to pay $350-$600 for the kit (or more if you get a kit of UW eyepieces), however you can pay more than that for one eyepiece, alone. One thing I like about Orion and Vixen is that you can get good eyepieces for fairly reasonable prices....although even there an Orion Stratos is going to set you back $180 a piece. If you can afford them, buy the high end eyepieces....an TV Ethos or Nagler would be a dream eyepiece in anyone's kit, but be prepared to pay a premium for one.
