Join in order for filters

Currency exchange looks favourable - time to go shopping in the US again.

Who would like to join me in an order for some astronomical filters from Omega Astrofilters, outlet for the popular DGM Optics Narrow pass Band filter?

I'm considering buying one of their 2" OIII filters. I already have a 2" NPB filter which I enjoy.

When I bought the NPB filter, I saved some dollars and got the "cosmetic second". Performs well and I cannot see anything of concern with it. They advise that the only second they have at the moment is the 1.25" OIII (5 pieces). (The site seems to say different for the 2" NPB?)

Should be able to save some postage if we order together. Even if I have to post again in Australia (but maybe not since I would insist on Registered post to be safe?) Pickup in Melbourne sounds the best?

Interested? I'll want to stay under the $1,000 trigger than might interest Customs. Order in the next few weeks. Delivery was two weeks last time.
