Why Buy A Telescope from a Company with the Funny Name

LANGUAGE QUEST?

 

We are a specialty retailer looking for "nooks" that require exceptional knowledge of our products and matching them to the needs of our customers. We have been doing just this with Language Learning Products (hence, the name) since 1989. We branched out into Travel Books and Maps in 1999. Many of our Language Customers were learning a language for travel or business and requested help in choosing travel materials. We now stock one of the largest and most complete selection of Travel Books and Maps available anywhere in the US!

Language Quest's owner and many of its employees are avid amateur astronomers. We live in a remote area of Northern California in the City of Mount Shasta, renowned for its crystal clear skies and very low light pollution. We helped set up and support a local astronomy club - the Mt Shasta Stargazers. Our members are almost all new to the hobby of astronomy and we have had the wonderful experience of introducing them to the beauties of the night sky through monthly meetings and monthly star parties. We encourage all beginners to find and join your local astronomy club.

Several years ago we began carrying telescopes, telescope accessories, and binoculars in our Mt Shasta store for the convenience of our club members and regional customers. Through our personal experience of introducing clients to the exciting hobby of astronomy, we have learned which telescopes provide the best solution for the beginning astronomer - the solution that provides the best telescope for the best price. And we provide after-sales service. We can help you learn how to use your new telescope as you explore the depths of outer space.

So, why should you buy from Language Quest? Here's why:
