No, I sent it when I was upset last night right after opening the
boxes.
A few things I didn't metion that also led to my frustration...

1. The angle at which one of the tripod legs extends is larger than the

other two by about 1/4 inch where the leg spreader is positioned, so
that I have to push that leg in to get it to touch the spreader.


2. In addition to all the other cosmetic issues with the scope, the
decal reads "Special Editio" along with a large bubble under the "E".
No
big deal on the decals, but it just adds to the impression of
carelessness when taken together with the large amounts of glass dust,
moderate dust inside the scope, the grease in the baffle tube and the
swirl marks on the mirror.

Heh, nice.

Maybe you can call up Celestron and talk the the owner!
