I have no interest in beating anyone up with local consumer law.
I was simply trying to work out who represented Celestron in Australia, as it was not at all clear. We know who used to represent them but that has apparently changed. Certainly they now have a Business Development Manager for the Asia Pacific, Mr John Cross, who contacted me re a warranty return offer on my CGX (which i declined).
Traditionally, business development managers work on the sales channel side of things, so with the distributor (if they exist), and/or the retail network.
It is still not clear to me exactly where the Celestron gear that Bintel, Andrews, and others are selling, actually comes from. Maybe Mr Cross will advise how it all works. I do know that returns go back to California for evaluation.
So i requested an end to where my thread was heading. If people want to discuss local Consumer Law, and beat up on one of our largest retailers, then they should start their own thread, not hijack mine.

The consumer law and other comments were in reply to the comment made by Malcolm, so as far as I can see that is still on topic, particularly considering I had similar issues. Threads evolve, usually to comment about another comment. It is, of course your right to close it, and I respect that, but you were quick to point the finger thought, as it was clear who it was aimed at, so no difference there I guess. But, once again I find that any dissent is quickly crushed on this site.
And, at the bottom of the comments on the other thread I wrote the follow, clearly you didn't read it all properly.
