Eyepiece Sets

Been away from the hobby for a few years and am looking to upgrade my eyepiece collection. Are these sets show on Ebay and others any good? Typically you see the Celestron or Meade sets all supposedly Plossl, also seen a set from Digitec..
Just looking for some advice.

There's at least one of those available on Astro-Mart right now...

There are a lot of these Meade and Celestron sets on the market right now because the sets are available for $99 with the purschase of Meade and Celestron 'scopes.

They're not bad ep's, but not premium, either. I haven't tried the Celestrons, but a full set of Meade plossl's is a nice thing to have.

Personally I'd rather get 2 nicer ep's in the in $80-100 range (e.g. Televue Plossls, Celestron Ultimas, Orion Ultrascopics, University Optics Konigs) and a good barlow (Televue, Orion Shorty-Plus, Celestron Ultima, University Optics Klee). These would be noticeably better (although not dramatically better), and you could have a nice range of magnifications for maybe a little less than the going price for the sets.

I also find that those short focal length plossls are too uncomfortable to use, so it's better to use a barlow to get down to those focal lengths, anyway.

My 2 cents.
