I am. ANYTHING that is not a brand logo, I usually remove.
On telescopes, the damned "Do not look at sun" comes off instant I get it. I even will usually remove the silver data labels (because half the time they will desilver or lift eventually anyway!)
Stupid little triviality, but I know I am not alone.
Got an Orion rich field guide scope yesterday. First thing after cleaning up the botched paint job they did on it I did was remove the sun and data stickers
