Meade Sale Extension?

The current sale on the LX200s goes through Feb 28.

Is there a Meade history on discounting and return to previous list prices?

Based on the way these telescopes hold their value, sure seems that buying now makes sense for keeping it one to two years. (That is of course if they do go back to the original price and not just permanently reset the MSRP to the lower price.)

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Anyone in the Universe own a Meade 14" yet??

Current deal has been extended through April. Interestingly:

Mead 10" LX200GPS, reg. $2,995 Sale $2,495 now.

April 1996 S&T announced price increase of "8-17% in the prices of almost all models" effective 5-1-96.
10" LX200 to go from $2,895 to $3,195.

So, its cheaper now (22%), more advanced and for $99 can get seven Super Plossl's worth $650 with case.

So, I ordered one. Figure prices can't go anywhere but up.
