Aluminiun case.
I mistakenly thought the finder, diagonal and 2 eyepieces were included.
So my last post quoting AU$1100 was off the mark by about AU$150, for the finderscope, Diagonal and two eyepieces. I have specced up the better erecting finderscope (US$50) and the dielectric diagonal (US$55) though, or it would have only been another AU$100 on top.
I have also put a 2" 2x barlow on my shopping list for a total of US$1281.
My order would be in already but I have to wait for some $$ to appear.  |
well i will post this again as this was what i ordered

so is the differece of 35 USD the fact you do not get the diagonal, two EP's and a illuminated 50mm finderscope????? Now I am starting to worry
. Our scopes are due here in a week or so (according to Mr Gilman). My invoice does state that these items are included?
