Chuck,
I have an AOL address and I've never had any problems with AstroMart. I've saved hundreds of dollars on the equipment I have bought through this site. I have to admit I was a bit nervous when I bought my TeleVue 102 refractor but when it came it was in like-new condition.
Are they a bit flakey? Maybe, but I can save a buck or two, I put up with it. I mean you cannot say the words "ebay" and "Amazon" in your posts but there are ways to get around that. Like say "the big winding river in South America" instead of "Amazon". I know this sounds a bit flakey but where else can one go to find good good deals on expensive telescopes, eyepieces and other equipment. I'd keep trying until you find out why go can't get registered. Or I would call Anacortes Telescope and Wild Bird.
