A good deal or a mistake?

Binoculars.com has a 2" Celestron Axiom 34mm listed for $147.00 bucks. Now I'm no fool as I am positive they are selling elsewhere for about $75.00 more than this. Anybody had any dealings with them and has anyone purchased one and received it yet. Just curious Gary B

I'm sure they meant 247. But hey, I ordered one. At 156 shipped, that isn't so bad!
We'll see what happens ...

Darn you guys! I had to buy one too. Ordered today, out of stock, they will get in 6-9 business days. Double confirmed price, and with shipping only $156.40. Also confirmed not seconds, comes straight from Celestron.
To compare, Astronomics advertises at $420 list, $229.50 their price!
Now to sell my Meade 2" 32mm SWA.,
Thanks,
Tom

Just was called Tuesday by Binoculars.com that the eyepiece was in. I agreed to ground shipping. They were nice enough to FedEx overnight for no extra cost. And I was billed as quoted.
Binoculars.com is now at the top of my list for straightforward dealing and customer accomodation.
I will go to them first for my next purchase.
