Default Binoviewer and/or Meade SWA eyepieces - 5th November 2009, 07:42 PM

I am in the throes of sorting out all my Astro gear and undertaking a fundamental change in my kit due to health reasons

I have a binoviewer that has only had use once - it did not suit the flimsy mount I had at the time. I did go overboard with the rather special eyepieces though:

The first pair are Meade 20mm Super wide angle (70deg) 1.25". I said these are special because you will never find them in the Meade catalogues because it was never picked up for final production (I think they changed the name to the Series 4000 QX 20mm instead). My best guess is that they are QX wide angle prototypes. Only 50 (yes FIFTY) were made so it is a rare find and I have only used them once (binoviewer too heavy for scope/mount). They are 5 element fully multicoated top quality wide angle eyepieces with rubber eyecup and rubber grip. Complete with Meade screw case. If you want to compare the new price look under 'Meade Series 4000 Super Wide QX 20mm' - remember though they have a rareity value too

The other pair are exactly the same but in 14.8mm (15mm) size

Pair of Meade 20mm specials £80
Pair of Meade 14.8mm specials £80
The Binoviewer with a pair of unbranded but surprisingly good 10mm 70deg eyepieces £80

I'm going to regret this! . . . If you insist on taking the whole lot, give me £200

(Prices include postage & insurance)
PayPal welcomed

Sorry, should have said - I will give preference to the buyer who will take the whole package for £200 before I consider selling the eyepiece pairs. Register your interest by all means though

Regards

Tony
