I bought this Celestron kit brand new on ebay for $250 the other week. I think for that price it is was very much worth it for sure. Now I find the 4mm and the 6mm pretty worthless when looking at saturn etc becuase in my 8" dob they are very hard to focus with and when you get them focused they still look abit blurry with loss of contrast. Except with the moon the 6mm is quite good/clear but the 4mm not really any good. But the 9mm, 15mm and 32mm and very good. Saturn in the 15mm with the 2x barlow looks amazing on a good clear night. I use the yellow filter also to look at saturn..I believe these ep's have only 2 elements which I read somewhere are best for looking at planets?
