seriously, if you're starting out you don't want to waste the considerable extra dollars on 2inch eyepieces. What you see through a telescope is as much the result of practice and concentration as anything else and the differences between many eyepieces are subtle enough to practiced amateurs and might be lost entirely on someone new to the hobby.

have a good look around first with the eyepieces you have so that you at least can measure in your mind the improvement (if any) you'll experience with new eyepieces.

cheers,
