If you have not been using astronomical filters, you have been missing out a lot. Used on the correct objects they enhance contrast. In some cases, the correct filters allow you to see objects that you will otherwise not see.

Serious buyers contact Alvin @973111zerofive. Collection at Serangoon MRT, or I can send by post without extra charge. If you buy more than one I can give a slight discount. If you need items that are not listed, please ask.
