Quite frankly Stephan I couldn't care less if all the ozzie dealers went out of business tommorrow. At least it would mean unfair trading rules set by companies such as meade and celestron would go and we could all obtain gear at fair prices. Why? Because we would stop being part of that tiny market which appears to work so strongly against us and is always used as an excuse to set stupid prices. We would be part of the larger US market and that would mean better pricing. As for warranty I have only claimed once in the past 20 years so for me it is a non-event. Paying several thousand dollars more for the same scope is ridiculous. Through the internet the world has become a much smaller place. Sitting at home I can access all the same products (and then some) as the local sellers have on their shelves. I am not so lazy that I cannot click the mouse on the item I want for myself after all isn't that all they do?
