Astronomics

Members,

Astronomics gives cloudy night members a discount on purchases. They are secretive about the size of the discount and information on the website suggests that you pay the price and then get the discount.

I normally purchase in the US from Agena (they have been excellent), but was thinking about getting a couple of TV eyepieces from Astronomics. Price before discount is the same on both sites. Both have stock.

Any experience of the CN discount and purchasing from Astronomics in general?

Cheers

Hemi

Hi Hemi,

I have bought on occasion from Astronomics. You pay in full, provide your CN display name mentioning you are on CN and you get a refund in about 24 hours (on PayPal for me).

Last item I ordered was a 5" refractor for $1,649 and got a refund of $41.22 = 2.50% discount. I think the discount depends on margins on items but anyway, in my case it was 2.50%

Thanks Nicos,

Nice to hear, I’ve never bought from them but assumed they would be a good seller given that they own and run Cloudy.

I visited Cyprus many years ago. A paradise in the med! Great history? Great food, and great golf!
