Ordered a fantastic tripod at a great introductory price. A CG-5 knock-off made in China. Very sturdy and good quality, leaves you puzzled at the low price paid.

Initially, Jason did not have them in stock, but he did gave a estimated delivery time. I moved during all this and e-mailed him my new address. The tripod made it to my new place on time. Great personalized service and price.

Their ads always contain new products with introductory or clearance prices. I commend these folks for providing affordable alternatives to typically high-priced products.

Apogee has good selection and prices, but their customer service is far from stellar.
My first order (small telescope) arrived DOA, and Apogee referred me to mfr, instead of doing quick exchange as is customary on defective items.
After considerable time the mfr did get me a new scope (which later had to be exchanged again).
Since I had paid extra for expedited delivery I feel it unfair I had to waste so much of my time and did not get to use what I paid for for almost 2 months.

I still gave Apogee another chance with accesories before making a major purchase.
Unfortunately, I got one defective item (lens) again. I was unpleasantly surprised when Jason, instead of prompt exchange, started to give me run arounds about returning the defective item at my expense first.
Because the item was defective, I did not feel it my duty to spend $4 to ship a $7 item back and asked for them to arrange for return at their expense.
Jason hem-and-hawed and promised to work something out, but I still don't have the working lens.

Because of this totally unsatisfactory service my next $3,000+ order will be placed elsewhere.

Recently purchased a new Celestron C-9.25 along with several accessories from Apogee. I found the prices to be outstanding, advise right on the money and shipping quick and damage free...a true "10" experience...highly recommended.

I faxed my order for a TV 85 and Panoramic mount to them and received a phone call a few hours later. Jason at Apogee asked if it would be OK to drop ship these directly from TeleVue. Well, I live only 40 miles from Suffern, NY, so I thought that was ideal. Jason got TeleVue to ship everything that Friday and Monday morning I was unpacking the scope and mount. Two days later Jason called to check if everything was OK. Everything was great. Apogee's prices for TeleVue products are typical. But with this incredible service, I will order more from Apogee.

I called about the 30mm Widescan eyepiece with the 84 degree FOV. They were up front about it's performance and what I could expect in my C-11. The eyepiece arrived quickly and is as advertised, beautiful! They are a value supplier and remind me of the old days of Edmund Scientific and University Optics, not afraid to carry some specialty items for astro geeks. I like em!

I ordered three plossl eyepieces from Apogee. The optics were excellent, and the prices were fantastic.
