Speaking of prices, the FSQ-130ED comes in at around $16,000 and I think the TOA-150 was about a $1,000 less. These prices were around July last year.

I was wondering about this, because Skywatcher Australia have it listed at 11.5kg but the US site has it down at 14kg. Having said that, the US site describes the 150 as a "Super APO". Are they the same product or are there two versions of the Esprit?
