They are somewhat dearer than the special price Star Optics are offering until the 31st July of $399.00

I too recently splashed out and bought a Pentax eyepiece from Star Optics...good price and good service in my opinion.
Now just waiting for a chance to use the silly thing!

Mike,
That $420 price was 1/2 on special already. Lex at Star Optics told me last week the price of the 1.25" versions will rise by 20% ie to about $480. He indicated the 2" versions will rise by about 5%.

Hmmmm.
$480...???
That might be a big enough hike to make some folk think twice, as very nice as these eyepieces indeed are.
That's still a nice price compared to those eyepieces with the big green writing... but it's getting awful close, particularly in the 1.25" range.

They will soon be back down around the $420 to $450 range fairly soon I am guessing.
