Just for the record: Lee from Andrews emailed me that he does not have the Synta SPs I wanted (2x26mm) and is not going to get any more of them, because he can't get them at a "good price". So it looks like MyAstroShop is charging a very fair price at $69. I'm still very curious how they perform, because there is a pretty big gap in price and performance between the likes of the GS Plossls and the top end Plossls like the Televues. It would be nice if the Skywatcher/Synta SPs could fill that gap for those who can't afford premium plossls.
