I'm still trying to get my head around the point of: why would anyone buy a Telescope without a mount?
I can understand someone who already owns a mount buying just the OTA.
Didn't this Cris Ellis (spelling of 'Cris' from his own website) ask if you want or need a mount?
Strange service if he didn't.
He is the same fellow who claims to be the Founder of the 'Astronomical Society of Melbourne', which doesn't really seem to exist
Too much fishy stuff methinks.
