ZWO MID-YEAR SALE ENDS SATURDAY, AUGUST 15 — AND WE ARE BRINGING IT TO STARFEST |
|
| Hey there Astro Friends, |
| Friend |
Six Days Left on the ZWO Sale. And Yes, We Will Hand It to You at Starfest. |
| Quick reminder before this one closes the door on you. The ZWO Mid-Year Sale ends Saturday, August 15, 2026. That is six days from today. After that, everything goes back to regular pricing and we all pretend this never happened. |
| But here is the part worth reading twice, because it is new. |
|
ORDER NOW, PICK IT UP AT STARFEST |
| The whole Khan Scope team is heading to Starfest. If you are going too, do not lug your wallet around hoping we brought the one thing you wanted. Place your order online now, and if the item is in stock, we will bring it with us and hand it to you at the booth. No shipping charge, no waiting for a courier, no signing for a box on your porch three days after the star party ended. |
| Find us near the Big Tent. Come say hello even if you are not picking anything up. We like talking about gear more than we like selling it, which our accountant has mentioned on several occasions. |
| And this is not a ZWO-only deal. Any product line we carry — telescopes, eyepieces, mounts, binoculars, filters, accessories — if it is in stock and you order it in time, we will bring it to the booth. |
| Order by Wednesday, August 12 so we have time to pull it, pack it, and load it. |
| Leave a note on your order that says “STARFEST PICKUP” or just call us at 416-783-4140 and tell us. Either works. |
We Are Bringing a Truckload of Used Gear, Too |
|
| If you are hunting for a deal rather than a box-fresh unit, come see the used table. We are hauling loads of pre-owned and open-box gear to Starfest — telescopes, mounts, eyepieces, cameras and accessories — at prices you will not see on new stock. |
| And no, this is not a “buyer beware” pile. Every used item is fully tested and inspected by Khan Scope technicians, and every one comes with a warranty. Forty years in this business has taught us that selling somebody a lemon costs a lot more than the sale was worth. |
| Used stock moves fast and it is first come, first served at the booth — but you can browse what is currently listed online here: Used & Open Box Gear |
Not In Stock? It Still Ships Free. |
| Some of the best deals in this sale are on items we are restocking. If you order a sale item over $500 that is not currently in stock, we will ship it FREE of charge straight to your home or office the moment it lands. You lock in the sale price today, and the shipping is on us. |
Store Hours: Please Read Before You Drive Over |
| Because the entire team will be at Starfest, our retail store on Dufferin will be: |
| Thursday, August 13 — closing early at 3:00 PM |
| Friday, August 14 — CLOSED |
| Saturday, August 15 — CLOSED |
| The website never sleeps, though. khanscope.com is open the entire time, and the sale runs online right up to the end of Saturday, August 15. So if the deadline sneaks up on you while you are standing in a field in Ayton, your phone still works. |

Not Ready to Pay in Full? You Do Not Have To. |
| Place a deposit. You do not have to pay in full to place a firm order. Use our product deposit system to lock in both the inventory and today’s sale price, with the balance due before shipping or pickup. |
| Financing available through RBC PayPlan and Affirm. Spread it out, keep imaging tonight. |
| We accept trade-ins. That scope in the closet you have not touched since 2019 could be most of the down payment on a mount you will actually use. Bring it by before Thursday or send us photos and we will give you a number. |
| Questions? Call us at 416-783-4140 or 1-800-580-7160, or email info@khanscope.com. If you are already at Starfest, just walk over to the Big Tent and look for us. |
|
Clear skies, Ray & The Khan Scope Team |
| P.S. Every year somebody walks up to the booth on Saturday afternoon and asks if we brought the mount they were thinking about. Every year I have to say no, because I did not know they were thinking about it. Order it by Wednesday and I promise to look much more competent when you arrive. |
