Best Deals

Tophatter's makes every effort to have the lowest price on the internet for daily deals on the day they are offered for sale. This means that you will not find a lower price anywhere from a valid seller with an identical product. It is possible, on occasion, that you may find a lower price for the same thing on an eBay listing, but they are often used and we can't gauge the quality of the company or their service, so we don't even try to compare our product prices to them. We often list the "Retail Price" of an item for comparison purposes. This is typically the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price or MSRP. Products are sold below MSRP in many instances, especially watches and jewelry. On the other hand, many of the top brands often don't allow any discounting from MSRP by their retailers except in special situations. Tophatter's does not attempt to portray the "Street Value" of an item. The street value fluctuates too much to effectively follow and there is no standard on which to base this price. You can get estimates of the price an item typically sells for elsewhere, on sites like Google Shopping or Amazon.com. Most of the time, however, Tophatter's will have the best price, and usually by a generous margin.

No telescope or astronomy knowledge required. The Celestron StarSense Explorer LT 70AZ Refractor Telescope features revolutionary StarSense Explorer technology which utilises your smartphone's GPS and camera technology to determine celestial positions relative to you. It's super simple - set up your telescope, load the StarSense Explorer app, select the object you want to find, follow the arrows using your telescope and center it in the viewfinder!

The new Celestron StarSense Explorer App is available for download from Google Play Store or Apple Store and compatible with most smartphone devices (Android 7.1.2 and higher, and iPhone 6 and newer). 

With a simple user-friendly design, this innovative technology cuts all the frustrations of manually learning the skies, scouring through star maps, and spending $100s on computerised technology.  This is a true beginners telescope for hassle-free viewing. This special design operates similar to facial recognition technology, instead looking for similiarities and patterns in star clusters or 'star mapping'. In a nut shell, it's brilliant, easy to use and ahead of its time! 

The Celestron StarSense Explorer LT 70AZ Refractor Telescope is a 70mm refractor telescope on a simple LT mount for simple fast and slow manoevering. This telescope is suitable for viewing most bright objects, including the Moon, some galaxies and planets! For best views, go to a dark sky site and you will see a lot more!
