How much good does a good diagonal do?

Lee, I'm 100% behind what everybody else has said here...
I would NOT invest in a better diagonal at this time... as it won't make a difference.
Save your money for when you upgrade your scope, and then go for the bigger/better diagonal if needed...

How do I report a rip-off?

Posted By Ivan Gastaldo

Chuck, I'm sorry to hear about this problem...

I met John Biggs at this last WSP and we spent quite a bit of time chatting and talking about his business... he is a very nice guy and it seems that he really cares about his company. By being associated with APM, I'm sure that they are most likely out there in a Star Party, since they promote their business this way quite a bit...

Did he talk to you, and/or promised a delivery date/time for the item you purchased? did he have any sort of communication with you? When were you supposed to get this item? can you give a little more information about the transaction?

I surely hope this is just a miscommunication problem... he does not seem to be a person that would run a business this way...
