Waiting for a Refund

"I returned a tripod that was not compatible with the binoculars that were purchased. I contacted Orion customer service, completed their forms, printed their return form, and sent the tripod back to Orion via UPS as requested for a refund about two weeks ago. I have not received an acknowledgement of receipt of the returned merchandise and I have not received a refund. The equipment is very good but I'm currently not happy with customer service."

Over the Moon

"he telescope was a Christmas gift for my daughter's partner. He was super pleased with it and loved that I included the planetary maps and filters. He enjoys chasing eclipses and he was happy the telescope is so transportable. Everything was sagely packaged. The purchase was easy on the website."

New to star gazing w/ Space Probe 130ST EQ Reflector

"Decided to try star gazing with telescope (have been using binoculars) and after many searches and reading reviews went with the Orion Space Probe 130ST EQ. Received kit and found directions easy to follow, assembly when quick and was up and running. Have had scope for a couple weeks now and close planets (Jupiter, Venus) easy to find and track. Haven't gotten into photo work yet - waiting for a couple items to arrive then will dive into that area a little.
I'm a retired mechanical engineer and find this scope to be well built, steady and the views thus far are amazing. I've talked so much about what I've already been able to see that my wife is getting out of the house on cold nights and learning a little about what the skys have been hiding for so long.
Looking forward to the challenge of locating / viewing what others have been enjoying for years!!!
