Indeed. That's my point though.

Not everybody can tell the difference between a $100, $600 and $1600 bottle of scotch, and there certainly is people buying a $1600 scotch to feel cool, or look important around others, despite not being able to tell the difference...

I'm well aware that the TOA 130 and 150 are arguably the most brilliant refractors ever made, and as you would expect, they carry a price to match. The AP SF130EDT, likewise.

But most people are not going to see the $10k difference between the TOA130 and my scope, because they won't have the skill or the skies to support such exquisite optics... better images, maybe... 10k better? I doubt it.

A handful will. But not many...
