what's the approx shipping price for such a scope? from vpost i calculated it'll be roughly $100 with insurance for just the OTA. is this method safe? or are there better places to get it from?

Hi branzz, i haven't checked up on that scope yet, but as far as i know, you can get a 127mak + basic tripod and accessories here for as low as 700. any lower, i recommend you should first start with binos and save up... the 127mak is really good as a starter and i'm using it and i'm still using it...
