Hey Bazooka,
You could try contacting Star Optics (close to Pacific Fair) and see if they have a open night. Most of these scope shops have open nights where they allow you to try out some scopes. I know York Optical here in Brissie has them. Maybe they can help. Other than that I second astroron in contacting SAS. I am sure old Kev will give you a hint or two. Here are the web sites:

Hope that helps.
