All,

I've been communicating with Gilman in recent times.

He's advised that in order to resolve the issue with eyepieces not coming to focus with their "advanced" focuser, they are going to shorten the optical tube assembly.

As a consequence, there's going to be an increase in price, especially as the RMB/USD is a bit lower than it was when a lot of us purchased these little you-beaut scopes.

Apparently, this change will be implemented in the coming month.

Hope this helps anyone who was considering purchasing this excellent bang-for-your-buck ED scope.

Thanks H.

I'll get out me trusty (rusty) hacksaw & get a head start!:lol:

Looks as if we are paying less for these (ATM) than our American friends...and a lot less than Europe!

What is this problem that is being fixed?...My QHY 8 comes to focus with the (old)replacement focuser just fine ....
