Re: ATM Aluminum Tubes

     I'm sure this is just a good way for them to make more money from the 
     unsuspecting beginning stargazers...you know it's the "Aluminum scope" 
     as opposed to the "cardboard" scope misconception...
     
     Hopefully they'll learn after their customers carry a heavy, wet, 
     useless scope back to the car a couple of times...unfortunately it 
     will just discourage beginners...
