Is anybody getting response to emails sent to [email protected] ? I sent one 2 weeks ago and resent it one week ago,---still no response! Am I committing a cardinal sin by asking two questions in the same email instead of just one?

James,
I e-mailed [email protected] about 3 weeks ago and received a response 2 days ago. Hang in there!

I emailed them about 4 days ago and haven't heard a response yet.

They are so slow at Celestron CS, I called them about 4 weeks ago and finally heard from them last week, still have not recieved a manual for my 9.25GT. I always had much faster service from Meade, it seems to me if they want to get back in the game they have to work on promt turn around.

From January 9th to January 18, 2004 I sent Celestron 3 e-mail and 4 phone recording requests for technical help regarding my Nextstar hand controller unit.

It's now April 5, 2004 and I have yet to get a call back or e-mail response from them.

I've been thinking about purchasing a new 14" Cat later this year. I'm pretty sure, now, from whom I'll be buying it. Even tho I've routinely been disappointed with a Meade response; at least I've always gotten one.

I just called Celestron yesterday 4/5/04, about 9AM PDT, about getting a replacement leg for my 8i tripod. The plastic connector at the top had broken and woudn't support the weight of my NS8GPS anymore. (trying to get by on the cheap). I received an answer on the first ring from the Celestron receptionist and she put me through to a tech. I told him my problem amd that I'd like a new leg. I didn't expect any warranty service and I knew they are moving into a new place and are in dissarray, but he told me to send a check for $x and attn: it to parts. So far, so good. I mailed the check within the hr. Now I'll see when it arrives. I don't doubt that it will as Celestron has taken care of a couple other issues in the past like my finder bracket that broke when I first put it on the NS8GPS. I just haven't seen the problem with Celestron I keep hearinfg about. I know the e-mail route I used before isn't working, but the phone sure does and if you have a cell phone, it's pretty much an issue of managing your minutes to make a free LD call. I really like the products and service so far.
