Purchased an 18" Bessler from dougr the week of 3/16/09. Package arrived intact and the lens was really, really packaged well. Lens was as described and a lot better looking than I expected (he stated that the outside was "worn", but, to me this looks like it's just from normal use. It's still smooth, and what I would call "sexy looking"). This was a very easy transaction and I would definitely buy from dougr again...

I purchased a pro reflector and a pre con, both were packaged very well and arrived quickly.
