Wife and I do not have, and never will, a credit card. Both of us are of the mutual agreement that if we don't have the cash, it can go on lay-buy or wait. There is NO NEED for instant gratification, with subsequent debt.

Max I have spent on a scope was $5K US. Stupid really. I have no problem owning Takahashi - in fact, that's nearly all I do - and they do cost (but are worth it), so I keep readily saleable/trade items on hand. I think I have FINALLY settled with the 2 scopes I love, having come FULL circle - tried MOST, now went back and acquired those I thought were the best of the ones I have had.

My Tak Beta-testing days are over. It is - FINALLY - the FSQ-85 for me, and the ONLY thing I may SUPPLANT it with is it's slightly bigger brother. For visual work, the VC-200L I have is just perfect.
