The Latest from Orion TelescopesPosted By Stephen Nolin |
I have an older version of the Medium Orion Deluxe Accessory Case, and the foam is starting to lose it's integrity, so I emailed Orion to find out how to order a new foam insert. Here is the response I got this afternoon:
Hello,
Thank you for your email to Orion.
We used to sell just the foam for # 05984. I regret to inform you we do not sell this item individually anymore.
We do sell the full units.

I hope this helps with your choices. Please contact us if you any other questions.
Happy Viewing,

I guess Orion figured out that they could make a lot more money selling a brand new $40 EP case rather than selling a $20 foam replacement to their prior customers. Just thought I'd pass this little tidbit of information along... :S
