  <body>The idea of owning vintage/classic equipment appeals to me greatly, and I like to think of Skylight's Vintage gallery as something of a celebration of the telescope.  Anyone can go to the nearest astronomical supplier (or website), and get the latest shiny scope...but to view the skies through a quality vintage refractor which is not easily replaced is special, and adds another dimension to your experience.

Skylight is a very personal business.  The new stock is there because I believe in it, and all used stock is handpicked by me.  Skylight is not a big unit shifter.  It does not pretend to be, nor does it aspire to be. Every sale is a personal experience, and I like to think of Skylight as a personal telescope shopping service. If I don&#8217;t have what you need, I will point out where it can be found (if I can).

_*That is the Skylight difference.*_

If you have a question, or would like some advice, please ask. There are no stupid questions, only stupid responses. I don&#8217;t pretend to know everything, but I will certainly help or advise if I can.

Thanks for reading,
