LX200 Price question????
Hi, ive been looking for a new scope for a while now and im pretty sure I will get a Meade LX200 8".
The average advertised price for one of these in Australia is around $4800AUD. This includes the mount and all the bells and whistles.
However, if I were to order the exact same telescope and mount direct from Meade in America it would only cost me $3622AUD (1AUD=80 US cents) including shipping.
My question is, where does the extra $1178 come from??? Is this the reseller marking up the price???? Hidden costs??? Does anyone know???
Cheers, Angus
