Q1: What can i see with the etx-125at? What would you advise a beginner to buy?
A: The Meade ETX series of telescopes are amazing. They are designed for begginers, but are powerful enough for even the most advanced users. The ETX 125 is capable of observing just about anything in the sky. The 125 is the largest of the ETX series and will give you some really amazing views. My advice for a begginer is to stick with the GOTO telescopes. These telescopes feature the automatic locating and tracking. For a good starter telescope, the GOTO telescopes by Meade and Celestron are the best.
Q2: Would like to buy a Meade ETX125AT Astro Telescope. The price seems a little high. Is there a chance that this particular telescope will be priced lower during December? Do you or the Meade Company offer any discounts to military personnel, retired teachers, or senior citizens? Thank you, Neville
A: The ETX 125 AT is listed at the lowest possible price we can have. The only way that we are able to discount is on orders for multiple items.
Q3: What is the expiration date for the promo; Free AutoStar Suite/the Lunar Planetary Imager with an EXT purchase?
A: The promotion for the free LPI imager and autostar suite with Meade ETX-90AT 105AT and 125AT ends on February 28th
Q4: Hi, is your ETX125AT the latest version? I read that Meade re-engineered the ETX125 and hence there are new and old versions in the market: "I called Meade customer service and they told me that there are 3 ways to tell the old from the new. The first two are by physical inspection. Removing the vertical lock knob and looking underneath for the bearings and aluminum support arm (as we already know). Second by a small oval indentation in the recess for the horizontal lock." Both of these checks are true. The third way to tell is by the Meade P/N above the UPC bar code on the outside of the box. Original 125ec: Meade P/N 0515-03-01 Newest 125ec: Meade P/N 0515-03-03
A: all of our ETX 's are the new versions however if you want to ensure that it is the newest possible version available just get the ETX Premier Editions as they were just released by meade for the first time at the beginning of the year.

A: i am sorry but due to the fluctuations in international currency Meade will not allow us to ship their products internationally. All other brands though we are able to ship internationally so you may want to look at some of the Celestrons as they are very comparable and come wiht many of the same features.
