Heads up: Nice Tripod on Astroboot

[John]

I'm pretty sure the one at the top of this page is a Berlebach Uni 28. I bought one a while back from the same site and it was ex-display but an excellent buy

Very nice, good bargain for someone

Will let you know what it actually is! I took the plunge and ordered it.

I bought the last one they did for the same price. The tripod came from the Netherlands but was well packed. Mine is a Berlebach Unii 28 and an ex-display model but in very good order. Mine carries the Astro Engineering logo as well as the Berlebach one.

I did wonder about this tripod. For all intense purposes it resembles a Berlebach UNI tripod but couldn't understand if it is why they would drop the name when advertising it and why put it in MISC's. Having had several upsets with astroboot in the past (all resolved promptly I might add) I have learned not to take things on assumption just because the item picture shows one thing it doesn't mean that's what your going to get.

If it is A1 and the quality matches a Berlebach then it's a good buy anyway.

I suspect they do it to keep people on their toes i.e. To encourage you to look in all sections of the site so you see all the other stuff they have.
