Guan Sheng makes most of Celestrons mirrors anyway (and a dozen other brand names). Synta mirrors are (or have been) used by some major brands too.
And if you look at the GS range of scopes they look almost identical to celestrons. The quality of accessories (focusers etc) just isn't the same as Celestron or Meade but if they all sold out to GS or Synta, will they use the GS parts still and just re-label the scopes with Celestron or Meade stickers as other companies do with other products?
It does make a person wonder where the quality will go. Up to a standard? or up to a price?
