Oh dear. So sorry, I already ordered a 8mm RKE from Edmund Scientific Singapore. Total cost per EP is S$144.xx, including GST and S$20 S/H.

Maybe u wanna try mine first before buying?

Cheers!

Maybe we can do a shootout:

1. TMB SM 8mm vs RKE 8mm
2. Burgess/TMB Planetary 6mm vs TMB SM 6mm (borrow the SM from denebman)
3. Pentax XO 5mm vs TMB SM 5mm
4. Meade RG 7mm Ortho vs UO HD 7mm

Who else interested in planetary EPs wanna join?
