APO Triplet and GSO RC

You know the long awaited RC from GSO apparently it's already being sold in the US under the name of Astro-tech a 6" for $1300US and an 8" for $3000US also a 80mm APO Triplet with graphite body can be purchased under the same brand name. Astronomics in the US are currently waiting on new stock and I've put my name down for one of the APO's. Shipped to Aust for around $820AUD all up I've also asked Lee A to see if he can get them.

Trevor is that the 127mm Triplet for $820USD? Thats a very good price, considering the advertised the previous batch at almost double that price.

No it's a 80mm f7 triplet with graphite body check out Astronomics web site under telescopes, Astro-tech, they do a ED doublet also which is cheaper the $820 is AUD landed price. Question is a triplet that much better than an ED doublet which is a $150 cheaper.
