Alex-
<<There are some funny features in the factory which remind me of
Soviet Union:-) For example, they do not take credit cards.>>
You might find that just as easily in the US. Credit cards are for consumer
business, and any "real factory business" just doesn't deal with
consumers--they only deal with resellers and commercial accounts. Many also
would refer you to a local retailer who carried their goods, rather than
compete with the retailers.
So now, you can start a side business organizing "Tours to the sextant
makers" for groups of US sailors!<G>
"$1499 includes airfare from NYC to .... and four nights accomodations,
deluxe motorcoach service to Freiberg and Bremerhaven, and certification of
your sextant by two manufacturers!"
