Their username is "great-eye". They have had listed before an 80mm triplet in an aluminum cell for $260. And mentioned having larger sizes as well. I contacted them on this and was told: "The 3.5" F/7 price is $480 each. The 4" F/7 price is $730 each. All are triplet FPL-53 super APO,zero false color!!" Has anyone tried one of their lenses, or have any experience with these folks? Their rating is 100% and the feedback on ebay is all complimentary, but I wonder if those comments come from one who has really used the lens or just thinks it looks good coming out of the box? Do you know what I mean? So - anyone have anything to say about these guys and their lenses?
