Default Telescope shops in AZ

I'm finding myself on a flight to Phoenix tomorrow on short notice.
I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a good place to look for the
following items typically in stock:

Coronado H-alpha filters with adaptor plates - ideal would be someone
that could demo one.
TV powermates 2"
Lumicon filters


I can get up to Flagstaff or down to Tucson pretty easily if
traveling is an issue.

Yeah, I know that I can order this stuff online, but I'm a hands on
type of person that needs to really see what I'm buying.

I'LL say it's short notice. In case it's not too late: Starizona at 5201 N.
Oracle Road, just north of River Rd and on the west side of Oracle.
520-292-5010.

Take I-10 east to Tucson, get off at Orange Grove. Turn left... heading east
to Oracle Road. Oracle Rd is several miles east of I-10. Turn right (south)
on Oracle Rd. Continue through the light at Rudasill (make sure the light is
green), and then in about a mile or less is Starizona on the right side.
You're driving downhill at this point. The store is a small brick building
that is somewhat set back from the road, so watch carefully.

It may be cloudy this afternoon and tomorrow - we may get rain.

Maybe I wasn't clear: Starizona is in Tucson.

I have personally met the owner of Starizonia through a mutual friend, a few
years back. He is a great guy, and knows his stuff. He very often has some
great scopes just sitting in the parking lot, so you can take a gander.

BV.
