Am looking for a 2" eyepiece of around 40mm fl and about 65 degrees AFOV, such as the Antares 40mm Erfle (US$79 new) or GSO 42mm Superview (US$60 new):

Preferably something not too heavy. In good condition.

Maybe another good 2" ep to look out for is the Astrobuffet 1rpd 30mm 80 deg AFOV (USD 95) which gives a bigger image, darker background and almost the same actual field of view. These 3 eyepieces probably work better for slower scopes, eg, f/10 SCTs.
