Bintel trash and treasure - $10 an item

If your quick.....

Bintel (Glebe) had a box of astronomy leftovers(?) out on Friday, each item $10.

I purchased,

2" 20mm UWA eyepiece.
5x80 right angle correct view finderscope
5x80 straight thru finderscope

total $30

they had a mix of items left, i recall several red dot finders (ones that display circles as well as dots, (not telrads)), various usb stuff. Might want to ring and see if the still have the box out before going.

One another note, for the bargain hunters,

Officeworks have an inexpensive stool that makes a excellent observing chair ($39 from recollection). Somewhere i read that a drummers stool was recommended as an adjustable observing chair, but these are the same if not better and at a quarter of the price. Has about 12" adjustment.
