No offence taken, Rob.

As I'd indicated in a prior post, the vendor in question actually sells my scope, with the standard R&P focuser that I was looking to replace!

It turns out that the only check he'd carried out was that the mounting plate for the 8" OTA had holes for screws in the same place. He didn't check max and min racked height. Didn't check draw tube length and travel.

Just told me it was right to go and took my $$$.

Poor. Very poor. Sorry, but that's the only way to describe such a lack of care or attention to detail, or product knowledge.

He had all my components in front of him. OTA, R&P ... and the Crayford he was sending out.

How do you rate that?
