Why don't you try contacting your isp to see if there is a way for you to control the spam filters? It might be possible for you to setup your own filter for any emails containing the word "astromart" or from the astromart domain to be sent to a specific folder. Does your isp delete all spam emails straight away? Or does it just send it to the trash? Just check, you might be able to change a setting somewhere to specify whether you want your spam permanantly deleted or just sent to your trash folder. Then it's just a case of getting everything sent to the trash and you just browsing through it for your astromart emails. Tedious, but that may just be your only option.
As to whether it's worth it, I've had some great deals on some hard to acquire items, and especially on meade stock (since US stores don't ship meade outside the US - and it's too expensive to buy new here most of the time). Many people will ship overseas if you ask. It's only when they state CONUS "ONLY" is where you'll run into some unfriendly responses. All the people I've dealt with on astromart have been super friendly and very patient with the time zones.
