Australian Speers-waler source?

[citivolus]

I'm wondering if anyone knows an Australian source for Speers-Waler eyepieces? I'm looking for one or two of the series 2, specifically the 17mm.

Thanks.

Everybody and his dog is selling them back in Canada, even in the small town I was born in there is a shop that stocks them. I guess I'm going to have to import yet again.

My wife get suspicious of all the packages that show up at the front door and get quickly and silently ushered into my office :lol: Hopefully my conversation with her today braced her for the prospect of a binoviewer mysteriously showing up on the scope some time soon. And nope, I'm not planning on throwing Speers-walers into a binoviewer; they are heavy enough by themselves. I have the 12mm and it has some nasty little dings in the body from a late night rendezvous. Fortunately the optics were spared.
