This product is sold by Amazon, so 3rd party guidelines do not apply. Are those the guidelines you are referring to?

Other Celestron products have been posted here previously and have reached front page also.

This also appears to be a "while supply last" deal at this price as it is showing 60% claimed for me.

Think amazon is inflating the regular price again. B&H still has the $353 price while Amazon has it $399 now. B&H lists regular price at $403, so … you decide if this is a great deal or not. I definitely am leaning on the $399 price on Amazon as a pass.

Spend a little extra and get an XT6. More aperture, better focal ratio. F5 is not great for eyepieces. Or get the Astronomers Without Borders OneSky Reflector made by Celestron for $250 which is probably this exact same scope just without the phone contraption
