AP sells worldwide so that seems surprising - maybe that was the case long ago. Their lists are so long you'd have no chance anytime soon (10 years) but it's worth signing up online. Doesn't cost anything. There are lots of other, and cheaper, alternatives in premium refractors. I would encourage you to think refractor rather than SCT if your main interest is deep sky imaging. Wide fields and pinpoint star images. SCT images always have larger, bloated stars. I own both but the SCT is used for planetary imaging and the refractor always for deep sky.
