Very useful indeed Gerry.

I didn't realise Al was a Bronx baby, that's as far as I got before I had to leave for work but I will have a read later

Thanks for the link I also found this spreadsheet on another forum I thought i would include it, I have added column G which shows prices in pounds this does not take account of import duties so is only a rough guide to cost, specifications are as original.

Thats Don Pensacks list for 2014. The prices are a £ conversion of the $ prices that he charges in the USA. We would need to add around 25% to reflect import duties etc.

Better give him credit for it as he is a member here

I do give Don full credit for this very useful list the only change I have done is added col g which Don is a price conversion Full credit  for the list. the list is brilliant and a lot of hard work went into collating and entering all the data well done Don.

I wish I had read this before I used my own eyepiece buying guide, 'buy loads and have empty pockets'

Still live and learn.

Alan,

It's never too late to do the right thing, sell the redundant EPs and fill your pockets with cash

You have top flight eyepieces Alan-a great collection if I may say so myself. Your new dob will be a fantastic addition to your set up over there, I can't wait for the reports!

Pensack is very good to deal with, fast service and excellent communication during transactions. My 25mm TV plossl came from him, I will deal at eyepiecesetc frequently now.

The document hasn't downloaded correctly for me, has pages missing :-(

Try TV's site, but I'm having trouble with it now too.

I found Don very helpful on a problem I had with a Panoptic and the LX 12 inch, he knows his onions.

Choosing eyepieces seems to be a mind field, but this Al Nagler guide really helps, thanks Gerry
