I am on the look out for a used Horseman loupe. I am not an expert by any means, but the eTone looks like viable alternative if a Horseman does not pop up or if it is too expensive.

I started out looking for a Horseman. They are out there but very expensive and seem to only be in Japan. The eTone shipped from Kentucky and was quite affordable. A very good buy I believe.
