Lenses from US? Good Supplier?

Hi,

Looking for a good US supplier who ships to UK, especially for eyepieces
etc, any good reputable ones you can suggest would be appreciated.

I've bought budget eyepieces from http://www.handsonoptics.com/
http://www.islandeyepiece.com/ http://www.eclipseoptics.com/ and
http://www.scopestuff.com/ without any problem. (Apart from the delay
and cost of customs clearance.) However, I'd think twice about buying
anything much more expensive, just in case it didn't arrive in a
satisfactory condition.

Thanks for that, don't intend to buy anything big, delicate or very
expensive, just a few accessories especially with the £ so strong.
