But those are list prices, which bear no relationship to actual selling prices in the US. For example, B&H has the 6x ASPH magnifier for $254. And since my wife is going to visit family in the US over the holidays, I might just spring for one and have it shipped to her parents, so as to avoid Belgian customs.
