For sale is the excellent WO bino-viewer. I bought these for 400$ from ProAstroz in August this year (can share online receipt if required).
They have been used very carefully and are as-new as shown in pictures. They come with the original padded box and include a 1.2x barlow nosepiece, 2 20mm 66 degreee WO eyepieces (which are decent eyepieces in their own right).
I've used them with a dobsonian and they gave great views of Jupiter, Saturn and the moon. They are very well made and the feel is that of a premium piece of kit despite the low price. I will not be reviewing them here....but the almost 3 dimensional views that these provide has to be experienced! You can find many reviews online, almost all of them are positive. Some people complain about the eyepieces but I did not find any fault when I used them independently of the bino viewer, even though I was comparing them to my excellent ES 14mm 82 degrees eyepiece.
I have used them with a GSO 2 inch 2x ED barlow which was the only way I could find focus using my Bintel 252 (10 inch) dobsonian, therefore I was limited to planetary and lunar observing. Since then i've sold my dobsonian and built an astrophotography rig so these are just sitting in their box patiently waiting. Also, because of the magnification they provide they are tricky to use in the field if you don't have a tracking mount (as I do not). If you have a catadiotric or cassegrain or other type of telescope with the required back focus to acheive focus without barlow I believe they can also be great for DSO's.
My demand is 325 AUD (postage included). I can also drop off within sydney.
Thanks for looking
