I called AP today as was told that Ancortes and Company Seven were the
two supliers. Ancortes said there were no more slots for them to order
the AP1200 this year. Company Seven said they had about two slots left
and delivery time was November if not later. Is this this the way it
has always been? It takes forever to get these products.
It used to be worse.
Due to the expanded facilities at AP, the wait and production time for mounts
is less than it used to be.
Refractors-scopes is a different story.
Right now it is something like 5 1/2 years.

If you can order one now and get it in November then that is FAST FAST FAST

Usually it is about a 2.5 year wait for the mount and people have been on
the list since 2000 and still have not had a chance to order their scope yet

Hi Kent,
I believe that a correction is appropriate.
It was 5&1/2 years in 1999. I bet it is 21 years today.
