[Aavso-photometry] DSI Pro CCD Cameras $129

[Jim Jones]

I just called another dealer to see if I could find one that would ship 
internationally.  According to that dealer, Meade restricts US dealers 
from shipping their products internationally to protect their 
international dealers.  According to him, Meade isn't the only mfg with 
that policy.

As someone else said, Margaret's best bet might be to watch the used market.
