Eyepiece sale

Since I have purchased a complete set of Vixen LVW eyepieces, my others are now for sale.
All eyepiece prices include postage within Australia.

Celestron Ultima 7.5mm $75 Sold
Meade 9.7mm Series 4000 $45 Sold
Meade 15mm Series 4000 $45 Sold
Meade 15mm Series 4000 (Blem) $40 SOLD
Meade 40mm Series 4000 $50 Sold

GSO 9mm Ultrawide $25
This is not a bad eyepiece but could not stack up against my 8mm Vixen LVW

Vixen 6mm LV $100
This is a really nice eyepiece as is flat and sharp across the whole field-but my 5mm does its duty now. Excellent 20mm eye relief.

Andrews 30mm 80 degree $40 Sold
Andrews 15mm 80 degree $55 Sold
The two Andrews eyepieces are much under-rated. If used in a f10 system they are real beauties ie 8-10" SCT they are really great eyepieces. Sharp to 85% of field of view which at 80 degrees is not bad. The 15mm is exceptioonally sharp and 6 stars easily seen in Trapezium using an 8"SCT every time even in light polluted Brisbane suburbs. The 30mm 80 degree is a great spotting eyepice for use when the gotos are slightly off. Never fails.

One of the Meade 15mm Series 4000 eyepices which were used as a pair in my binoviewer has a small blem on the outside due to being dropped (hence the slightly lower price) Does not affect the view at all.
All other eyepieces are in perfect condition.
Photos are coming but if you know your eyepices they all look the same in photos.

Both of the eyepieces (30 and 15mm) are 2" eyepieces. Sorry should have made that clear.
