I saw a dozen or so of them at a swap meet in Los Angeles 2 weeks ago. Seemed to be going for $100 - $300. What power do you need? Do you prefer a single eyepiece or a binocular type?
I can look when I go down next time and give you a phone call from the show.

Microscope

The higher the magnification, the closer you have to be to the work to focus it. I find that the magnifying lenses in the 1.75X to 2.5X works well if you are doing hand work. They make these lenses in a head band that flips up and down as necessary for about $30.
