No matter what, consumers in Australia are not focused on buying Australian made or Australian supplied or Australian modified solutions.
I attempted to make something that was close to overseas prices but a slight bit more. in a thread which I believe is now archived, the first answer was to support an overseas product
.
So I kept going for a little while and then can the whole astronomy supply industry.
Is it worth making things, possibly but essentially Australia still have to live on the poverty line to make consumers happy. Will I continue to try? I am not sure. I would like to, but am not confident to pursue it too far.
For the meantime I will make products for myself and that will be about all for the moment.
