How much do you think they will be in AUD?
I don't know, Matt, but Matthew at http://www.telescopes-astronomy.com.au/ had this to say in his last newsletter:

SKYSHED POD OBSERVATORIES
LATEST NEWS -
There is now a new optional Black Liner for the POD Bay. In a two step molding process, an additional 15 lbs (7 Kilos) of virgin black polyethylene is melded to the inside of the outer POD Bay wall, forming one wall lined in black.

This extra weight creates an even stronger, thicker walled POD Bay, providing extremely high Infrared radiation protection. Hi IR protection means the POD Bay will stay cooler in temperatures over 100 F.


We can now give accurate quotes for the SkyShed Pod Observatories and now able to accept orders for the SkyShed Pods.

Contact us for the price list. Please supply your contact details and delivery address. We will quote a price including delivery.

YOUR DETAILS
Please forward us the details of the SkyShed Pod you want:

- model
- dome colour
- wall colour
- number of shelves

http://www.skyshedpod.com/

DELIVERY
We'll drop the Pods off ourselves, to the eastern states only (Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne at this stage), to help save on shipping costs. I expect the interstate shipping costs to be halved based on a quote from Toll/Ipec from Adelaide to Brisbane of $1100 for the Standard POD and $1300 for the XL-3 Pod.

You can of course pick up the Pod yourself.

I haven't got serious enough to ask for the price list yet!

Al.
