New they are about 40 bucks, many outfits sell them, you could get one from ATWB (just click on the bird on the left hand side of this page) or numerous other astro gear outfits that are on the web. For me a Telrad is a must have accessory, it makes finding objects much easier than using a conventional finder. In fact i just use a Telrad for finding objects, but if you like to use a finderscope also, the telrad is great for pointing the scope, then look through the finderscope to nail down the object you are looking for.

Good question, as Steve Kufeld passed away several years ago. Can anyone confirm that the production location remains as before?

I have one from 1999 (never used) molded with "STEVE KUFELD PINE MTN CLUB CA 93222". More info at:
