Just a little question.

#1 Post by MicroMan2 » Sun Dec 13, 2015 8:11 pm

So I was looking at Home Science Tool's Microscope Accessory page and found a set of Plan Achromats

A price of $104 seems suspiciously low for a full set of Plans. This would be my first concern.

Interesting, what makes it fishy and what is the appropriate price for Plan Achromats?

Reading further down the page it would seem that that is the price for the Plan Achromatic upgrade if you buy the microscope.
Zeiss Standard WL (somewhat fashion challenged) & Wild M8
Olympus E-P2 (Micro Four Thirds Camera)

These are from a seller I have bought from. He is very good and reliable. They aren't much more than the upgrade price you showed and free shipping!

It's really funny apochronaut the link you mentioned was also the link I was going to put up. Unfortunately after my parents spended on a digital piano I doubt that they will be compliant to buy me the upgrades regardless though thank you
