Hi Paul,
I did read a thread somewhere on another forum that they do.
The thread was started by a school teacher on another forum who apparently purchased a large scope from them and had it shipped to OZ. When the scope arrived it did not work properly and looked as if it was second hand. A a tug-o-war went on for many months until it was finally over a year later, U.S. courts ruled in favor of the Australian School Teacher.
I don't know if this story is true or not, or how accurate the claims of the School Teacher was but...always when ordering large scopes from overseas you take a big risk, and you should be prepared with insurance etc...It might be a good idea to check the internet for complaints in regards to this company before ordering. It's possible that any other negatives out there (if any others) might have some validity, better to be safe than sorry I say.
Regards...
