Nagler 13mm + Panoptic 19mm: They arrived this morning! You can tell by the weather in Melbourne. We've got rain, hail, strong winds!
Less than 24 hours to get here from when I emailed about the wrong thing being sent out. And I still had the Meade UWA. They did not even wait for me to return it first. That's one to Bintel on service from me.
I offered to pay for return postage, Bintel refused it, and already credited the cost of postage to the cost of the EPs. Not bad. They were very quick getting back to me and fixing up the mistake too.
Steve,
Bintel may not be the cheapest store in Australia but they always do the important things right IMO. Highly recommended.

TOP PRIORITY FOR IMMEDIATE BROADCAST
VICTORIAN SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING
A line of thunderstorms extends along Victoria's western border, travelling
rapidly eastwards at 80 km/hr. Thunderstorms are expected to continue to affect
the Mallee, Wimmera and Western districts this afternoon. There is the potential
for some of these thunderstorms to become severe, producing localised damaging
wind gusts and large hail. Brief periods of intense rainfall is also possible.
In the interests of community safety the SES suggests some simple precautions:
- Secure any loose objects in the vicinity of your home, then:
- Stay indoors if possible
- If you are outdoors, avoid sheltering under trees
- Listen to the radio station for the storm updates
- Switch off computers and electrical appliances
Issued at 2:00 pm EST on Wednesday 28 September 2005
The next warning is due to be issued by 5:00 pm Wednesday.
Yesterday, Bintel were kind enough to loan me a 14mm Meade s5000 UWA - the next generation after my s4000 version (the same as the one you were sent, Steve).
So it will be included in the review this weekend against the Nag 13mmT6, my Meade UWA s4000 14mm, and John's Pentax 14mm XW.
Will be a great comparison for high end eyepieces in the medium power range.
At first look, it's a beautiful looking eyepiece. I really like the look of the exterior design.
