Well correct if I'm wrong here but the Skywatcher stuff is sold here at very competitive retail prices compared to the states. Now Celestron I think is owned by Synta/Skwatcher yet the Celestron range seems to have a much higher mark up when compared to the USA. Whats going on? I wanted to buy an CGE mount last year but was er dissapointed by the relatively high price. I bought the EQ6 instead. I notice this has dropped over AU$400 in price (great for the consumer) yet the price of the CGE mount hasn't moved a cent. I fully support the idea of buying local but at what cost?
