To Enjoyit 兄
The www.digitecoptical.com says the Orion ED80 is "Sold out" ! (Too bad)I guess the distance to Yale doesn't matter.
Ask your friend call them to check the availability. That is the first thing you need to do.
Anyway, Orion80ED is a VERY GOOD scope. I've used it with my Canon300D shoot a lot of objects.

The size of this Orion 80ED is very compact to put into a travel bag.Jason 郁闷ing,从朋友那里来的消息:没希望了。主要我知道晚了,要早一点,邮购应该没问题,可现在。。他20日就要回国了。。。我看来要考虑威信了,抵制日货的DX,请b4我吧。。。不过谢谢Yang兄,小蔡,我学到了不少东东 If you want to know more about the ED80, check out this:

For Orion web, they say they still have ED80. Check this out:
http://www.telescope.com/shopping/product/detailmain.jsp?itemID=6306&itemType=PRODUCT&iMainCat=4&iSubCat=13&iProductID=6306 If you want to buy ED80, why don't go to http://www.astromart.com/.
The seller can mail the telescope to you (to China) 可是http://www.astromart.com/. 这个网 看 起 来 像 易 趣,保险吗?没见到orion80ed 国内的买主,不建议去Astromart买东西。一是有问题不能退换,而且容易引起纠纷。 谢谢过马路兄提醒,但不知有没有orion的dealer肯做向中国邮购的? I think the people in Astromart are quite prof and trustable. I bought a lot of things overthere.
It might have problem to due with the foreign people.
