Several weeks ago, Orion listed a 26mm "highlight" plossl in their clearance center, for $19.95 apiece. I bought two of them, to fill a magnification gap for my bino-viewer. A few days later, I thought I'd buy a few more at that price just to tuck away or maybe pass-on at a swap meet. Well, by then the price had risen to $56.95 apiece, the same as their regular 25mm "highlight" plossl! No longer a bargain, so I didn't order more. http://www.telescope.com/control/clearance-center/accessories-on-sale/26mm-h... It turns out that the $19.95 listing was a mistake and only on the website very briefly. I just lucked-out that day.
