Baader T-2 15mm Extension tube in Australia?

[happycamper]

I've been trying to find somewhere in Oz that might have this extension tube in stock:

Baader Planetarium T-2 Extension Tube 15mm long - Part #25A

You see it everywhere in stock OS but here...? Does anyone know where to find them? Is there a secret stash of Baader parts somewhere here?

cheers

Myastroshop.com.au show up as a Baader dealer, might be worth enquiring. I have purchased a few small items like this from teleskop-express in Germany a few times, usually gets here quick!!

APM and Teleskop Service have extensive ranges of rings, its easy to buy online and they can post it. Will arrive in 10 days or so.

AstroPete's in Brisbane have a Baader T2 15mm extension tube which may be the one you are looking for.

Failing that, give Extravision a call in Brisbane...they're the Baader distributor and they might have stuff the retail stores don't have (and vice-versa!)

Bintel sells a set of Tthread spacers - 5,10,20mm.
You could make up a 15mm".........

Thanks everyone. What great bunch you are!

I must admit to doing quite a bit of OS online buying. When you group small items together the postage makes sense. But going OS for a single tiny item, well the price can more than triple with decent postage - which is why I'm wondering about in-stock in-Australia.

I've never heard of AstroPete's so that's another one to put in my bookmarks. Thanks for that tip.

I'll give everyone a call today and see what i can see.
