Anyone near Fitzroy? need a little help

Guys,
I won a 6" newtonian on Ebay but the owner is a little un-interested in assisting too much with packing. Is there anoyne down that way could assist? needs collecting and packing for a courier pick up , unless someone is headed towards Canbera/Cooma
Roger
(pack and send would be too expensive, other suggestions appreciated)

Bump for you.

Hi Roger, if you are referring to Fitzroy in Melbourne, I can help as I just live about 5km away.
Let me know how you go with others.

Just thought I'd update this, it all arrived here without damage. I used "needacourier" on Ebay. Price was acceptable. It took a couple of weeks till a truck was headed this way.
