PICKUP OR PACKING AND SHIPPING
TEC telescope optical tube assemblies and major components are professionally crated. We have good experience with shipping, we understand what can go wrong, and so we have refined our practices to reduce risks in transit. Telescopes ordered through Company Seven can be sent to our facilities for quality control inspection, acceptance testing, then they can be picked up and the customer provided instruction at our showroom near Washington, D.C. Or, we can arrange for delivery to you from our showroom, even complete with installation of an observatory as needed.
Alternatively we can arrange to send the telescope directly to you from TEC in Colorado. When you receive your order, it will become obvious that a great deal of care was also given to the safe packing of each item. It is very rare that any component is damaged during transit, we do insure shipments to provide coverage in rare instances of damage or loss.
TEC REFRACTING TELESCOPE INTERNATIONAL SALES
Company Seven generally serves a worldwide clientele however, unfortunately for some people we do have a verbal agreement with TEC that Company Seven will not deliver new Astro-Physics products into Germany, Austria or Switzerland unless the customer actually visits our showroom (near Washington, D.C.) to accept delivery at the showroom. This policy of TEC is to protect their exclusive distributors in those overseas areas.
When choosing a telescope we encourage you to compare, side by side, the optical and mechanical qualities of our telescopes against other telescopes of similar and greater aperture. And then also, compare the merits of their distributors.
