AstonomyAlive, or dead ?

[Wavytone]

Just curious...

Called the numbers on their website (www.astronomyalive.com.au) and the landline is not connected and the mobile number is answered by someone unrelated to the owner...

Are they in business or is it a scam - some of the prices look too good to be true ?

[Atmos (Colin)]

They're a business, numbers should be working although most of our conversations are via email for convenience.
I've bought most of my equipment from there

I help with legitness, I used to play D&D with his son

I have also bought equipment from there and actually picked up at a real address in Bentleigh. Usually best to start conversations via email, I found the best.

[AstroApprentice (Jason)]

I've purchased from Cris - send him an email.
