I would not be happy spending $2500 on this , those marks ( worn out black anodising ) happened in just one use ? I dont think so and what about the fuzzy images ? I have seen the sunspots clearly when the sun is nearly setting .
Not good enough ! .

I always advise Lunt buyers to get the feather-touch...much better build.
Apart from fingerprints, dust ( easily fixed) and a little scratch/dig on the blocker ( not perfect, but will have zero effect on the image ) ...what is the solar image like viewing the sun at around 9:30am?
If there is zippo solar detail or proms, no matter how much you crank in the pressure tuner, it's a dud. Send it back.
On the other hand, if the image has good contrast and you can see fine structure...it's a good scope. Be happy.
