Well .... if it's stock they already have , it should not go up in price immediately (since it's already been paid for when they got it wholesale) or until the next bulk order is placed.
But if they don't actually keep it in stock and order only to fill orders then if the exchange rate goes south they have no choice unless they sacrifice some margin (profit) other than to bump up the prices accordingly. They should come clean , or alternatively indicate pricing in Yen , UKP , Euros , chinese currency or USD and indicate pricing in AUD is subject to the exchange rate.
I was talking to one of the chaps at AOS yesterday on the dognbone and they reckon things are going to get very bad for telescope sellers here and in the USA very quickly , people are relucant to spend up big when they don't know if they will have job and the economic prospects are so bleek.
Telescopes and astrogear are luxury items now .
