I can't claim there won't be any glitches encountered (please email me if you run into one), but www.EyepiecesEtc.com is now LIVE!

I am a dealer for TeleVue, Explore Scientific, Baader Planetarium, and Astro-Tech.

At first, I am starting with eyepieces, barlows, and filters from each company. I will expand into other categories as sales allow.

Sales will be primarily internet based, though people are free to come visit my location if you're in the LA area.

I can be reached at:
1-855-4EYEPIECE (439-3743)
1-310-904-6401
Don@EyepiecesEtc.com
I'll be able to take calls 9am-6pm Pacific Time starting tomorrow, Tuesday September 18, 2012,
Mon-Fri will be normal phone days, though I'll answer emails 7 days a week.

This has been a long time in coming, and I'm honored to offer products from such industry giants.

Please feel free to peruse the website and make suggestions and criticisms.

Clear skies to us all.

Don Pensack

We may have communicated some time in the past. I apologize if the announcement bothered you. I trust you clicked "Unsubscribe". I'll check to make certain you're removed from the list.

Congratulations, this is great! It's nice to have a dealer close by in town again. I used to shop at the tiny SC location in Sherman Oaks a few years back. I got my C-90 in 1989 and a Pronto a couple of years after that plus various accessories from you guys back then.

Don....I've received several inquiries about my Baader Semi-Apo and where I bought it. This was before I saw this thread. I told them Alpine...sorry. But I was wondering if you were going to carry them? Mike

Matt,
Thanks a lot. I've gotten lots of congrats from CN people, and it means a lot to me.

Paraclete,
Thanks. It's hosted on multiple servers for faster access. And I agree it's pretty fast. it's on the Microsoft asp architecture, but ironically the website presents perfectly on Chrome, FireFox, Safari, and Opera but has glitches in structure on Microsoft's own Internet Explorer. Go figure.

Gastrol,
If you want to come by, give me a call.

Mike,
I have the Baader Semi-apo filters in stock, both sizes. Look under Baader filters.

Don,

I just checked and did not see the Semi-Apo listed. I looked at the Baader list three times. Glitch, or am I as blind as I think I might be getting?

Jim,
Sorry, I have the Fringe-Killer filters. It looks like I'll need to add the Semi-Apo. I guess a lot of achro users need a stronger violet cut.
Give me a day and I'll have them on the website.
Thanks for reminding me.
Don
