That's no guarantee, either. I did just that, spending an extra $100 or so
to get it from a so-called reputable dealer in Toronto- Khan scope
center. As soon as I had any difficulty, he got Meade in CA call me and it
was a year of back-and-forths to CA to set things right. I would have gone
through the same mess with a place like WalMart (maybe) and saved $100 for
astrotoys.
