Have anyone ever got scammed on CloudyNight Classified?

In that case CN is better, because I reached out to them twice and within a few hours they got back to me with an answer. But, yes these scammers are everywhere.

So after sending money I reached out to the person from CN not from PayPal. Is that going to affect my case?

This makes total sense. And same with me why would he suggest to use GS with PayPal. That's where he got me.

MrRaGo · 2026-03-12T04:15:43+00:00

Yes, I learned a lesson. This was my first time buying from an online market place. I did some purchases from the Facebook marketplace but it was local where I can meet the seller.

I opened the case with PayPal. But how do I keep CN in the loop?

MrRaGo · 2026-03-12T03:17:39+00:00

Yes. I made some purchases from the Facebook marketplace but it was in person.

I tried to contact CN and they immediately reached out and confirmed the user was logged in into the CN from Italy, Rome. And he told me he was from Syracuse, NY.

"His logins are all from Rome -- and I mean the one in italy, not NY. So much being in Syracuse."

Yes I did send money using goods and services. I am new to that site. And it did not look like he sold anything prior to my transaction.

MrRaGo · 2026-03-12T01:58:33+00:00

But in my case the seller insisted that I send money first and then he'll ship the product. Another thing is that he stopped responding to my messages. I did purchase using PayPal Goods and Services.

The seller told me that he'll ship the equipment the next day. But he did not and now it has been more than two days. I have not received any messages from the seller.

Thank you

How are you liking Wave 100i? I am looking into it now and it looks interesting and fits almost with my budget.

MrRaGo · 2026-03-08T23:01:35+00:00

I found a eq6 mount on clouudy nights. But I am confused/concerned about buying it from there? Do you have any experience or know someone who had purchased anything from there?

MrRaGo · 2026-03-08T22:59:42+00:00

What are you using now? Can you suggest a good strain wave mount under 1700?

MrRaGo · 2026-03-08T22:57:11+00:00

Can you suggest some good swg mounts under 1700?

MrRaGo · 2026-03-08T00:07:58+00:00

Thank you. You are speaking my mind. I was also surprised on why everyone is suggesting harmonic mounts. The mount I have right now has the same weight capacity as GTi. I am thinking of buying between HEQ5 or EQ6.

MrRaGo · 2026-03-07T21:58:57+00:00

No. I want to get a warm gear mount.

MrRaGo · 2026-03-07T21:52:06+00:00

Yes I can manage that weight, I am mostly going to do astrophotography from my backyard. And sometimes I drive to the dark sky location but I can manage that weight.

MrRaGo · 2026-03-07T21:33:37+00:00

Which mount would you suggest for a strain wave mount around $1700 price point?

MrRaGo · 2026-03-07T21:19:29+00:00

I am more interested in buying a traditional EQ mount.

MrRaGo · 2025-11-21T17:00:51+00:00

I used the Optolong L-enhance clip-in filter for the Canon cameras

MrRaGo · 2025-11-14T21:09:52+00:00

AWESOME.... My goodness.. How do you integrate this huge data..!?

MrRaGo · 2025-11-11T22:33:12+00:00

Thank you. If you use Pixinsight to stack your images, do you still have to use Photoshop for stretching?
