good morning all,  i've had these 2 takahashi .965" eyepieces for the last 25yrs
and haven't used them in years, i bought them new when i bought my first tak
refractor in the early 1990's,   they've been sitting in a box on my bookshelf
and are close to new.  can anyone tell me if there is still a market for these small
eyepieces and if so their value ?   i used to use them with my 76mm and 102mm tak
and always loved the images. appreciate any advise as i'd like to list them for sale.

Hi Larry,

Searching the classified archives it looks like you can probably fetch somewhere between $75 and $100 for them. A collector or someone with young eyes would probably want them for planetary viewing. You could start them little higher and accept offers or put them up in auctions and see what the market brings. They look to be in nice condition.

Good luck,
Keith
