Don't buy anything from Adventure Products Universal, it is an ebay dumping point for Tasco discontinued products, things previously return from retailers, ex-display stock, etc. ; made the mistake of buying a Skywatcher ED100 from them, same description ' new, bix opened for inspection only' - it arrived filthy, dust inside the tube and material on the insde of the objective - it was also the old Blue model which turns out was discontinued around 2008 so I later found out. I went directly to the Tasco Marketing Manager and sent it back and got a full refund. They are still trying this tactic even today, they are advertising a Skywatcher MN190 but its not the current model but they claim it is new, boix opened for inspection, etc.Current MN190s have the dual speed focuser and the one they are selling is single speed focuser and likely the original model from two years ago.
