I recently brought a Stellarvue SVED from SDM got a great price nearly the same as buying direct from the States, couriered to the door for an additional $50 although unbeknown to the supplier his courier company only ships via road so it took over a week to arrive but I also found out that the courier company was having problems with their freight forwarder. So be sure you ask how it's to be delivered and if it's worth a few dollars make sure it's covered by insurance just in case things go terribly wrong although touch wood everything I've brought ex East has always been Ok. I've brought from BTOW, SDM, Andrews, Bintel, Frontier Optics, Telescope and Astronomy and MyAstroshop and in all cases the staff have always been helpful. Shop around check out the prices you can be surprised how they differ between suppliers in some instances quite dramatically. Also search the webb there are more suppliers in WA than some people realise so you not just stuck with dealing locally with only one or two suppliers. Happy shopping.
