Ok - from what you guys have said it all sounds like a user issue... (phew)
I will play around with the moon first and and then I'll the lagoon nebula and the stars later.

Yes the focuser is moving in and out, when I had the 40 mm on, it got blur and clear... until I could find an optimum spot.
But I still feel that the 40 mm eyepeice should have at least perform better than my eyes though. (or the finderscope for that matter.)

Dew at the focuser - eek! How do I fix that? cus the focuser is inside the tube. Can't put due shields on..... or did you mean the diagonal mirror Janokiss?

The one thing thats not so good about the GS dob is that it is supplied with hardly any instructions.... Just assembly stuff and thats it!
I mean just look at the Skyquest manual Wow. Now thats instructions!

But no - I don't feel ripped off at all, even better now that I know my 2' 26mm will give a wider feel of view....
