Hi group.
Re: Celestron C9.25 OTA I see these listed by retailers as f/10 and others as f/11----are there different models? Company 7 shows it as f/10 and Anacorte lists as f/11. I see different retailers sell it with different "accessories" too---I want to buy just the OTA, aluminum tube, XLT. I really like that Company 7 will check the optics and collimate prior to shipping. Wish other sellers would do that...but back to the original question....why different specs?

Look at all these replies. Something is strange here. One company
has a typo error on their web site and says a SCT is F/11. And
a 100 different answers come out..
Just think what would happen if they made a price error and
had a 9.25" Carbon Fiber Tube XLT OTA listed for $14.95 and a
not XLT for 1395.00
