I just happened to do a Google Maps and noticed there are just 2 reviews for Astronomics and 1 of them is VERY negative... I think we should all log into Google Maps, look up Astronomics and set the record straight!

I can tell you the issue with the one bad review. A gentleman showed up in our store literally 30 minutes after a pipe burst and flooded our office. Our computers were down, there was a giant truck vacuuming out the water, floor fans were blowing everywhere and I was moving things to a dry spot on the other side of the store. We had a sign on the door explaining we were closed due to unforseen circumstances. The customer walked past the truck, stepped over the hoses, opened the door with the sign, and went by a sweating Mike carrying armfuls of equipment and documents. He then started to talk to Tom about products that we could not even come close to talking about due to our current situation. The customer became angry and left. We weren't given a chance to ask him to come back on Monday once everything was put back together. He then posted a website about his trip and has been posting on occasion when he can. I have wondered if the posting on Google has ever been an issue, I hope it hasn't but I am afraid people will look for us now that we have a showroom and read it.

My nephew and I came down for the nickel tour yesterday afternoon (7/21/12) and was most impressed. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished product and many more visits.

Because you have built and invested so much for the good of my astronomy world as well as the accessories. The next $1000 I spend on my hobby will go to Astronomic's as a show of thankfulness, appreciation and investment on my part. Thank you so much for doing this. Danny

Thank you for your kind comments. The astronomical community has been very good to us for the 33 years that Astronomics has been in business. What we gladly provide here online at Cloudy Nights is one way in which we can show our gratitude to all the amateur astronomers who have made Astronomics and Cloudy Nights possible.
