By "competitive" I mean more or less the same once you've paid shipping and import taxes to get it here from overseas by yourself. And of course, shipping to here for anything much larger than a pencil sharpener can be pricey

The current AU$ exchange rate doesn't make the situation any more palatable though.
Are Celestron now dealing directly with their official dealers instead of through a distributor? Hammond and Sheldon or Pots and Pans or whatever they were called.
