Prices of astro goods again
My understanding is that BD (black diamond) from Skywathcher is well, new edition. Is it better than previous models is for discussion. But what I don't understand is pricing at Andrews.
BD-15012 AR 150mm x 1200mm refractor OTA and EQ5PRO SynScan computerised equatorial mount (white). Complete package! $2199.00
BD-15012 AR 150mm x 1200mm air-spaced doublet refractor OTA $1149.00
And
150 x 1200 with HEQ5PRO (white)heavy duty "Go-To" computerised mount and V3.0
"Go-To" hand controller
$2299.00 AUD
150 x 1200 refractor OTA
Inc. dovetail bar, tube rings, diagonal, 8x50 finderscope and two eyepieces!
$799.00 AUD
*****
Now, as you can see from above BD OTA cost: $1149 and "normal" one cost $799 yet again when buying in combo with the more expensive one ends up to be cheaper?
Maybe its just a mistake on the web. Or is the a difference between:
HEQ5PRO (white)heavy duty "Go-To" computerised mount and V3.0
"Go-To" hand controller.
and
EQ5PRO SynScan computerised equatorial mount (white).
